The purpose of this study was to identify electroencephalography (EEG) features that correlate with P300-based brain-computer interface (P300 BCI) performance in people with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Twenty people with ALS used a P300 BCI spelling application in copy-spelling mode. Three types of EEG features were found to be good predictors of P300 BCI performance: (1) the root-mean...

Inhibitors of histone deacetylases have been approved for clinical application in cancer treatment. On the other hand, histone acetyltransferase (HAT) inhibitors have been less extensively investigated for their potential use in cancer therapy. In prostate cancer, the HATs and coactivators p300 and CBP are upregulated and may induce transcription of androgen receptor (AR)-responsive genes, even...

SINGLE-TRIAL P300 CLASSIFICATION USING PCA WITH LDA AND NEURAL NETWORKS A brain-computer interface (BCI) is a device that uses brain signals to provide a nonmuscular communication channel for motor-impaired patients. It is especially targeted at patients with ’locked-in’ syndrome, a condition where the patient is awake and fully aware but cannot communicate with the outside world due to complet...

The P3(00) event-related potential (ERP) was elicited in 80 normal, right-handed male subjects using a simple auditory stimulus discrimination task, with electroencephalographic (EEG) activity recorded at 19 electrodes. P300 amplitude was larger over the right compared to left hemisphere electrode sites primarily at anterior-medial locations (F3/4, C3/4) for both target and standard stimuli. Th...

We consider an EEG-based, wireless braincomputer interface (BCI) with which subjects can “mind spell” text on a computer screen. The application is based on the detection of the P300 event-related potential (ERP). The frequency range for preprocessing the EEG recordings, and the location and length of the time interval after stimulus onset, are selected with respect to the classification accura...

Feedback negativity is a negative component of the event-related brain potential observed 250-300 ms after feedback stimuli. The present study investigated the effects of value (correct or incorrect) and reward magnitude (no, small or large) on feedback negativity and P300. Feedback negativity was larger after incorrect feedback than after correct feedback, irrespective of reward magnitude. In ...

Person identification technology has many applications. It has been shown in previous studies that the brain-wave pattern of every individual is unique and that the electroencephalogram (EEG) can be used for person identification. In this paper, a kind of event related potential-P300, is employed as the input of the identification system. Compared with the other EEG signal, the P300 wave is eas...

Introduction Long latency auditory evoked potentials, especially P300, have been used for clinical evaluation of mental processing. Many factors can interfere with Auditory Evoked Potential - P300 results, suggesting large intra and inter-subject variations. Objective The objective of the study was to identify the reliability of P3 components (latency and amplitude) over 4-6 weeks and the most ...

This study aims to introduce a new approach of a comprehensive paradigm to evaluate brain electrophysiological properties among addicts. Electroencephalographic spectral power as well as amplitudes and latencies of mismatch negativity (MMN), P300, and P600 components were evaluated among 19 male heroin addicts and 19 healthy nonsmoker subjects using a paradigm consisting of three subparadigms, ...

P300, somatosensory evoked potential (SEP) and brainstem auditory evoked potential (BAEP) are widely used neurophysiological methods for objectively evaluating cognitive, somatosensory and brainstem auditory functions. We studied the P300, SEP and BAEP in 17 patients with chronic respiratory insufficiency (PaO2:58.2 +/- 7.0 mmHg; mean +/- SD) and 15 age-matched healthy subjects (PaO2: 84.4 +/- ...
