Motion visually evoked potentials (mVEPs) have recently been explored as input features for brain-computer interfaces, in particular for the implementation of visual spellers. Due to low contrast and luminance requirements, motion-based intensification is less discomforting to the user than conventional approaches. So far, mVEP spellers were operated in the overt attention mode, wherein eye mov...

How to encode as many targets possible with a limited-frequency resource is difficult problem in the practical use of steady-state visual evoked potential (SSVEP) based brain-computer interface (BCI) speller. To solve this problem, study developed novel method called dual-frequency biased coding (DFBC) tag SSVEP-based 48-character virtual speller, which each target encoded permutation sequence ...

OBJECTIVE The P300 speller is a system designed to restore communication to patients with advanced neuromuscular disorders. This study was designed to explore the potential improvement from using electrocorticography (ECoG) compared to the more traditional usage of electroencephalography (EEG). METHODS We tested the P300 speller on two epilepsy patients with temporary subdural electrode array...

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...

P300 is an electric signal emitted by brain about 300 milliseconds after a rare, but relevant-for-the-user event. One of the applications of this signal is sentence spelling that enables subjects who lost the control of their motor pathways to communicate by selecting characters in a matrix containing all the alphabet symbols. Although this technology has made considerable progress in the last ...

OBJECTIVE The P300 speller is intended to restore communication to patients with advanced neuromuscular disorders, but clinical implementation may be hindered by several factors, including system setup, burden, and cost. Our goal was to develop a method that can overcome these barriers by optimizing EEG electrode number and placement for P300 studies within a population of subjects. METHODS A...

Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs) allow users to control devices and communicate by using brain activity only. BCIs based on broad-band visual stimulation can outperform BCIs using other stimulation paradigms. Visual stimulation with pseudo-random bit-sequences evokes specific Broad-Band Visually Evoked Potentials (BBVEPs) that can be reliably used in BCI for high-speed communication in speller ...

Brain Computer Interfaces (BCI) provide a non-muscular communication channel for people with severe motor impairment. The most commonly used BCI for communication is the so called P300-Speller that received its name from the event-related potential (ERP) P300 which is elicited by the speller (oddball) paradigm. Several researchers reported that it is not only the P300 but also other ERPs that a...

The P300 speller is being considered as an independent brain–computer interface. That means it measures the user’s intent, and does not require the user to move any muscles. In particular it should not require eye fixation of the desired character. However, it has been shown that posterior electrodes provide significant discriminative information, which is likely related to visual processing. T...

We present Listen, Attend and Spell (LAS), a neural network that learns to transcribe speech utterances to characters. Unlike traditional DNN-HMM models, this model learns all the components of a speech recognizer jointly. Our system has two components: a listener and a speller. The listener is a pyramidal recurrent network encoder that accepts filter bank spectra as inputs. The speller is an a...
