In this paper, we report on the decoding of phase-based information from steady-state visual evoked potential (SSVEP) recordings by means of a multilayer feedforward neural network based on multivalued neurons. Networks of this kind have inputs and outputs which are well fitted for the considered task. The dependency of the decoding accuracy w.r.t. the number of targets and the decoding window ...

We studied the effects of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) in six right-brain-damaged patients with left unilateral spatial neglect (USN), using both standard clinical tests (reading, line, and letter cancelation, and line bisection), and electrophysiological measures (steady-state visual-evoked potentials, SSVEP). TENS was applied on left neck muscles for 15', and measures we...

This study explored the neurocognitive effects of 4 weeks daily supplementation with a multi-vitamin and -mineral combination (MVM) in healthy adults (aged 18-40 years). Using a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled design, participants underwent assessments of brain activity using functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI; n = 32, 16 females) and Steady-State Visual Evoked Potential r...

We introduce a game, called “The Maze”, as a brain-computer interface (BCI) application in which an avatar is navigated through amaze by analyzing the player’s steady-state visual evoked potential (SSVEP) responses recorded with electroencephalography (EEG). The same computer screen is used for displaying the game environment and for the visual stimulation. The algorithms for EEG data processin...

This paper proposes the auditory evoked potential (SSAEP) stimulation technique as well as its detection algorithm to replace the steady state visual evoked potential (SSVEP)-based brain-computer interface (BCI) system during the visual fatigue period. Optimal speaker position for two commands SSAEP-based BCI system and the possible electrode positions are investigated. With the proposed system...

The goal of this study is to investigate the influence of fatigue on Steady State Visual Evoked Potential (SSVEP) during virtual wheelchair navigation. For this purpose, an experimental environment was set based on modifiable parameters (luminosity, number of obstacles and obstacles velocities). A correlation study between SSVEP and fatigue ratings was conducted by the mean of spectral analysis...

bci is one of the most intriguing technologies among other hci systems, mostly because of its capability of recording brain activities. spelling bcis, which help paralyzed people to maintain communication, are one of the striking topics in the field of bci. in this scientific a spelling bci system with high transfer rate and accuracy that uses ssvep signals is proposed. in addition, we suggeste...

‎There are different feature extraction methods in brain-computer interfaces (BCI) based on Steady-State Visually Evoked Potentials (SSVEP) systems‎. ‎This paper presents a comparison of five methods for stimulation frequency detection in SSVEP-based BCI systems‎. ‎The techniques are based on Power Spectrum Density Analysis (PSDA)‎, ‎Fast Fourier Transform (FFT)‎, ‎Hilbert‎- ‎Huang Transform (H...

Research in brain-computer interfaces have focused primarily on motor imagery tasks such as those involving movement of a cursor or other objects on a computer screen. In such applications, it is important to detect when the user is interested in moving an object and when the user is not active in this task. This paper evaluates the steady state visual evoked potential (SSVEP) as a feedback mec...
