The method of analysis of electroencephalograms (EEG) on the basis of wavelet transformations is offered. Electroencephalogram (EEG) analysis is widely used in clinical practice for diagnosing such neurological diseases as epilepsy, Parkinson's disease and others. Traditional approaches to EEG analysis, generally accepted in the clinical diagnosis of diseases, are due to the fact that for a certain time after the stimulus, the EEG amplitudes are calculated at time intervals that depend on the frequency of signal quantization. Therefore, it is important to develop algorithms for classifying EEG signals using wavelet transforms. The analysis of peak-wave EEG discharges, which are indicators of the presence or absence of absence epilepsy, was performed. The EEG recording areas were decomposed into the main EEG frequency bands. Wavelet transform in combination with artificial neural networks makes it possible to implement a classifier based on the energy distribution of the components of the EEG signal. Determining the activity of individual components of EEG signals, as well as the materiality of the processes that take place in the sources of these waves, may be the subject of further research.

Brain machine/computer interface (BMI/BCI) technologies are based on analyzing brain activity to control machines and support the communication of commands and messages. To sense brain activities, a functional NIRS and electroencephalogram (EEG) that has been developed for that purpose is often employed. Analysis techniques and algorithms for the NIRS and EEG signals have also been created, and human support systems in the form of BMI/BCI applications have been developed. In the field of rehabilitation, BMI/BCI is used to control environment control systems and electric wheelchairs. In medicine, BMI/BCI is used to assist in communications for patient support. In industry, BMI/BCI is used to analyze sensibility and develop novel games. This special issue on Brain Machine/Computer Interface and its Application includes six interesting papers that cover the following topics: an EEG analysis method for human-wants detection, cognitive function using EEG analysis, auditory P300 detection, a wheelchair control BCI using SSVEP, a drone control BMI based on SSVEP that uses deep learning, and an improved CMAC model. We thank all authors and reviewers of the papers and the Editorial Board of Journal of Robotics and Mechatronics for its help with this special issue.

An electroencephalogram (EEG) is a test that records electrical activity in the brain. Epileptic seizures affect approximately 50 million people worldwide, making it one of the most serious neurological disorders. Seizures cause a loss of consciousness, but there are no specic signs associated with epileptic seizures. analysing the brain's activity during seizures and locating the seizure duration in EEG recordings is difcult and time consuming. A discrete wavelet transform (DWT), which is an effective tool for decomposing EEG signals into delta, theta, alpha, beta, and gamma ( and ) frequency bands. For research, the db4 is used, which has a morphological d,q,a,b g structure that is different to that of EEG.

To address the issue that how the EEG-EMG signals change according to different motion modes, an experiment was conducted on ten subjects with three tasks performing the voluntary, stimulated and imaginary finger flexion activities. The experiment was set two programs including 10s and 2s time intervals. Electroencephalogram (EEG) from C3/C4 channels and electromyogram (EMG) from flexor digitorum superficialis were recorded simultaneously. Besides the threshold detection of wave peaks between two points, morlet wavlet-based time-frequency analysis was adopted to study the independent variation mechanisms between EEG and EMG under different motion modes. The results indicated that EMG signals of 2s intervals exhibited a similar trend with 10s intervals. The EMG energy increased over 50 Hz when actions occurred. On the contrary, there were no significant changes in imaginary task. In addition, EEG signals performed obviously different. No pronounced similar changes were found in 10s and 2s intervals. Finally, the results demonstrated that EEG-EMG causality was high during 2s intervals in stimulation task.

It becomes more difficult to identify and analyze the Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals when it is corrupted by eye movements and eye blinks. This paper gives the different methods how to remove the artifacts in EEG signals. In this paper we proposed wavelet based threshold method and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) based adaptive threshold method to remove the ocular artifacts. Compared to the wavelet threshold method PCA based adaptive threshold method will gives the better PSNR value and it will decreases the elapsed time.


This paper proposes a methodology for making a decision on left and right motor imagery using Tensorflow and wavelet-based feature extraction. Wavelet coefficients are extracted by the Haar wavelet transforms from electroencephalogram (EEG) signals in the first step. In the second step, 60 wavelet-based features are extracted by the frequency distribution and the amount of variability in frequency distribution. In the final step, this paper classified left or right motion imagery using these 60 features as inputs to the Tensorflow. The proposed methodology shows that the performance result is 82.14% with 60 features in accuracy rate

The recognition of emotions is a vast significance and a high developing field of research in the recent years. The applications of emotion recognition have left an exceptional mark in various fields including education and research. Traditional approaches used facial expressions or voice intonation to detect emotions, however, facial gestures and spoken language can lead to biased and ambiguous results. This is why, researchers have started to use electroencephalogram (EEG) technique which is well defined method for emotion recognition. Some approaches used standard and pre-defined methods of the signal processing area and some worked with either fewer channels or fewer subjects to record EEG signals for their research. This paper proposed an emotion detection method based on time-frequency domain statistical features. Box-and-whisker plot is used to select the optimal features, which are later feed to SVM classifier for training and testing the DEAP dataset, where 32 participants with different gender and age groups are considered. The experimental results show that the proposed method exhibits 92.36% accuracy for our tested dataset. In addition, the proposed method outperforms than the state-of-art methods by exhibiting higher accuracy.

The approximate entropy (ApEn) of signals in the electroencephalogram (EEG) was evaluated in 8 healthy volunteers and in 10 patients with absence epilepsy, both during seizure-free and seizure intervals. We estimated the nonlinearity of each 3-sec EEG segment using surrogate data methods. The mean (± SD) ApEn in EEG was 0.83 ± 0.22 in healthy subjects awake with eyes closed. It was significantly lower during epileptic seizures (0.48 ± 0.05) than during seizure-free intervals (0.80 ± 0.13) (P<0.001). Nonlinearity was clearly detected in EEG signals from epileptic patients during seizures but not during seizure-free intervals or in EEG signals from healthy subjects. The ApEn of EEG signals estimated over consecutive intervals could serve to determine pathological brain activity such as that occurring during absence epilepsy.

Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals are progressively growing data widely known as biomedical big data, which is applied in biomedical and healthcare research. The measurement and processing of EEG signal result in the probability of signal contamination through artifacts which can obstruct the important features and information quality existing in the signal. To diagnose the human neurological diseases like epilepsy, tumors, and problems associated with trauma, these artifacts must be properly pruned assuring that there is no loss of the main attributes of EEG signals. In this paper, the latest and updated information in terms of important key features are arranged and tabulated extensively by considering the 60 published technical research papers based on EEG artifact removal method. Moreover, the paper is a review vision about the works in the area of EEG applied to healthcare and summarizes the challenges, research gaps, and opportunities to improve the EEG big data artifacts removal more precisely.

Deep learning (DL) methods have been used increasingly widely, such as in the fields of speech and image recognition. However, how to design an appropriate DL model to accurately and efficiently classify electroencephalogram (EEG) signals is still a challenge, mainly because EEG signals are characterized by significant differences between two different subjects or vary over time within a single subject, non-stability, strong randomness, low signal-to-noise ratio. SincNet is an efficient classifier for speaker recognition, but it has some drawbacks in dealing with EEG signals classification. In this paper, we improve and propose a SincNet-based classifier, SincNet-R, which consists of three convolutional layers, and three deep neural network (DNN) layers. We then make use of SincNet-R to test the classification accuracy and robustness by emotional EEG signals. The comparable results with original SincNet model and other traditional classifiers such as CNN, LSTM and SVM, show that our proposed SincNet-R model has higher classification accuracy and better algorithm robustness.
