Brain Computer Interfaces (BCIs)

In this module we will discuss the state of art in human BCIs covering topics including:

​​

1. Recording modalities:

   • EEG, ECoG, MEG, fMRI, and ultrasound

   • Basics of electrophysiological signals

   • Invassive vs. non-invassive (and synchronous vs. asynchronous)

2. Preprocessing/Signal Enhancement:

   • Noise reduction and artifact processing

3. Feature Extraction:

   • Identifying discriminative information: and dimensionality reduction

4. Classification:

   • Pattern recognition and machine learning

5. Control Interface:

   • Translating commands and user feedback

6. Applications:

   • Assistive technologies and neuroprosthetics

7. Challenges:

   • Signal quality and real-time processing
