Single-trial motor imagery classification is a crucial aspect of brain–computer applications. Therefore, it is necessary to extract and discriminate signal features involving motor imagery movements. Riemannian geometry-based feature extraction methods are effective when designing these types of motor-imagery-based brain–computer interface applications. In the field of information theory, Riemannian geometry is mainly used with covariance matrices. Accordingly, investigations showed that if the method is used after the execution of the filterbank approach, the covariance matrix preserves the frequency and spatial information of the signal. Deep-learning methods are superior when the data availability is abundant and while there is a large number of features. The purpose of this study is to a) show how to use a single deep-learning-based classifier in conjunction with BCI (brain–computer interface) applications with the CSP (common spatial features) and the Riemannian geometry feature extraction methods in BCI applications and to b) describe one of the wrapper feature-selection algorithms, referred to as the particle swarm optimization, in combination with a decision tree algorithm. In this work, the CSP method was used for a multiclass case by using only one classifier. Additionally, a combination of power spectrum density features with covariance matrices mapped onto the tangent space of a Riemannian manifold was used. Furthermore, the particle swarm optimization method was implied to ease the training by penalizing bad features, and the moving windows method was used for augmentation. After empirical study, the convolutional neural network was adopted to classify the pre-processed data. Our proposed method improved the classification accuracy for several subjects that comprised the well-known BCI competition IV 2a dataset.

Recently, decoding human electroencephalographic (EEG) data using convolutional neural network (CNN) has driven the state-of-the-art recognition of motor-imagery EEG patterns for brain-computer interfacing (BCI). While a variety of CNN models have been used to classify motor-imagery EEG data, it is unclear if aggregating an ensemble of heterogeneous CNN models could further enhance the classification performance. To integrate the outputs of ensemble classifiers, this work utilizes fuzzy integral with particle swarm optimization (PSO) to estimate optimal confidence levels assigned to classifiers. The proposed framework aggregates CNN classifiers and fuzzy integral with PSO, achieving robust performance in single-trial classification of motor-imagery EEG data across various CNN model training schemes depending on the scenarios of BCI usage. This proof-of-concept study demonstrates the feasibility of applying fuzzy fusion techniques to enhance CNN-based EEG decoding and benefit practical applications of BCI.

Selection Of

Support vector machines are powerful tools used to solve the small sample and nonlinear classification problems, but their ultimate classification performance depends heavily upon the selection of appropriate kernel and penalty parameters. In this study, we propose using a particle swarm optimization algorithm to optimize the selection of both the kernel and penalty parameters in order to improve the classification performance of support vector machines. The performance of the optimized classifier was evaluated with motor imagery EEG signals in terms of both classification and prediction. Results show that the optimized classifier can significantly improve the classification accuracy of motor imagery EEG signals.
