In this work we investigate the use of a Gaussian membership function as a technique to improve the steps of feature extraction and classification in brain-computer interface (BCI) systems based on motor imagery (IM). The main idea of this approach is to filter the spectral information of the electroencephalogram (EEG) signal via parameterized covariance matrices to highlight features that contribute to signal classification through a classifier based on Riemann’s distance. The results, in relation to the accuracy performance, acquired in this work arevalidated from dataset 2a of the IV International ICM Competition. The results obtained suggest that the spectral filtering performed using the Riemann Geometry approach can positively affect the performance of the ICM system, increasing its flexibility.

Abstract. Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals has been widely researched and developed in many fields of science. EEG signals could be classified into useful information for the application of Brain Computer Interface topic (BCI). In this research, we focus in a topic about driving a car using EEG signal. There are many approaches in EEG signal classification, but some approaches do not robust EEG signals that have many artifacts and have been recorded in real time. This research aims to classify EEG signals to obtain more optimal results, especially EEG signals with many artifacts and can be recorded in realtime. This research uses Emotiv EPOC device to record EEG signals in realtime. In this research, we propose the combination of Automatic Artifact Removal (AAR) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) which has 71% of accuracy that can be applied to drive a virtual car.Keyword: EEG signal classification, automatic artifact removal, brain computer interface Abstrak.

It is a significant issue to accurately and quickly extract brain evoked potentials under strong noise in the research of brain-computer interface technology. Considering the non-stationary and nonlinearity of the electroencephalogram (EEG) signal, the method of wavelet transform is adopted to extract P300 feature from visual, auditory and visual-auditory evoked EEG signal. Firstly, the imperative pretreatment to EEG acquisition signals was performed. Secondly, respectivly obtained approximate and detail coefficients of each layer, by decomposing the pretreated signals for five layers using wavelet transform. Finally, the approximate coefficients of the fifth layer were reconstructed to extract P300 feature. The results have shown that the method can effectively extract the P300 feature under the different visual-auditory stimulation modes and lay a foundation for processing visual-auditory evoked EEG signals under the different mental tasks.

A Brain–Computer Interface (BCI) provides a novel non-muscular communication method via brain signals. A BCI-speller can be considered as one of the first published BCI applications and has opened the gate for many advances in the field. Although many BCI-spellers have been developed during the last few decades, to our knowledge, no reviews have described the different spellers proposed and studied in this vital field. The presented speller systems are categorized according to major BCI paradigms: P300, steady-state visual evoked potential (SSVEP), and motor imagery (MI). Different BCI paradigms require specific electroencephalogram (EEG) signal features and lead to the development of appropriate Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs). The purpose of this review is to consolidate the most successful BCI-spellers published since 2010, while mentioning some other older systems which were built explicitly for spelling purposes. We aim to assist researchers and concerned individuals in the field by illustrating the highlights of different spellers and presenting them in one review. It is almost impossible to carry out an objective comparison between different spellers, as each has its variables, parameters, and conditions. However, the gathered information and the provided taxonomy about different BCI-spellers can be helpful, as it could identify suitable systems for first-hand users, as well as opportunities of development and learning from previous studies for BCI researchers.
