Original Information

Brain signals are important in diagnosing various disorders and abnormalities in the human body. These signals are recorded by scalp electrodes and are called as EEG signals. EEG signals are a mixture of signals from different brain regions which contain artefacts along with original information. These contaminated mixtures are analysed such that diagnosis of various diseases is possible. One of the effective methods available is Independent Component Analysis (ICA) for removing artefacts and for separation and analysis of the desired sources from within the EEGs. This paper focuses on the analysis of EEG signals using ICA approach. Two ICA algorithms- Pearson ICA and JADE ICA are analysed in this paper. Comparison of these ICA algorithms in removing artefacts from EEG has been carried out by simulation using MATLAB. Then the Pearson ICA algorithm simulation is done using Visual C#. The algorithm has been implemented in an Embedded Development Kit (EDK) using .NET Micro Framework and the results are presented.

Excessive mental workload will reduce work efficiency, but low mental workload will cause a waste of human resources. It is very significant to study the mental workload status of operators. The existing mental workload classification method is based on electroencephalogram (EEG) features, and its classification accuracy is often low because the channel signals recorded by the EEG electrodes are a group of mixed brain signals, which are similar to multi-source mixed speech signals. It is not wise to directly analyze the mixed signals in order to distinguish the feature of EEG signals. In this study, we propose a mental workload classification method based on EEG independent components (ICs) features, which borrows from the blind source separation (BSS) idea of mixed speech signals. This presented method uses independent component analysis (ICA) to obtain pure signals, i.e., ICs. The energy features of ICs are directly extracted for classifying the mental workload, since this method directly uses ICs energy features for feature extraction. Compared with the existing solution, the proposed method can obtain better classification results. The presented method might provide a way to realize a fast, accurate, and automatic mental workload classification.

<pre>Alcoholism is a widely affected disorder that leads to critical brain deficiencies such as emotional and behavioural impairments. One of the prominent sources to detect alcoholism is by analysing Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. Previously, most of the works have focused on detecting alcoholism using various machine and deep learning algorithms. This paper has used a novel algorithm named Sliding Singular Spectrum Analysis (S-SSA) to decompose and de-noise the EEG signals. We have considered independent component analysis (ICA) to select the prominent alcoholic and non-alcoholic components from the preprocessed EEG data. Later, these components were used to train and test various machine learning models like SVM, KNN, ANN, GBoost, AdaBoost and XGBoost to classify alcoholic and non-alcoholic EEG signals. The sliding SSA-ICA algorithm helps in reducing the computational time and complexity of the machine learning models. To validate the performance of the ICA algorithm, we have compared the computational time and accuracy of ICA with its counterpart, like principal component analysis (PCA). The proposed algorithm is tested on a publicly available UCI alcoholic EEG dataset. To verify the performance of machine learning models, we have calculated various metrics like accuracy, precision, recall and F1 score. Our work reported the highest accuracy of 98.97% with the XGBoost classifier. The validation of the proposed method is done by comparing the classification metrics with the latest state-of-the-art works.</pre>

Independent Component Analysis (ICA) has been successfully applied to a variety of problems, from speaker identification and image processing to functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) of the brain. In particular, it has been applied to analyze EEG data in order to estimate the sources form the measurements. However, it soon became clear that for EEG signals the solutions found by ICA often depends on the particular ICA algorithm, and that the solutions may not always have a physiologically plausible interpretation. Therefore, nowadays many researchers are using ICA largely for artifact detection and removal from EEG, but not for the actual analysis of signals from cortical sources. However, a recent modification of an ICA algorithm has been applied successfully to EEG signals from the resting state. The key idea was to perform a particular preprocessing and then apply a complexvalued ICA algorithm. In this paper, we consider multiple complex-valued ICA algorithms and compare their performance on real-world resting state EEG data. Such a comparison is problematic because the way of mixing the original sources (the “ground truth”) is not known. We address this by developing proper measures to compare the results from multiple algorithms. The comparisons consider the ability of an algorithm to find interesting independent sources, i.e. those related to brain activity and not to artifact activity. The performance of locating a dipole for each separated independent component is considered in the comparison as well. Our results suggest that when using complex-valued ICA algorithms on preprocessed signals the resting state EEG activity can be analyzed in terms of physiological properties. This reestablishes the suitability of ICA for EEG analysis beyond the detection and removal of artifacts with real-valued ICA applied to the signals in the time-domain.

Electroencephalography (EEG) is well known method of recording electrical brain activity with electrodes placed along the scalp. One of the challenging tasks in this field is the removal of electrical signals that are not related to brain activity.In this paper, an algorithm for the removal of the EEG signals corresponding to the eye blink artifacts is presented. The presented algorithm is based on ADJUST artifact removing tool, which uses independent component analysis (ICA) for signal decomposition. For every signal component returned by the ICA algorithm, temporal-spatial features are calculated, upon which every independent component is classified as artifact or non-artifact, and removed accordingly.

Brain Computer Interface consists of hardware and software that convert brain signals into action. It changes the nerves, muscles, and movements they produce with electro-physiological signs. The BCI cannot read the brain and decipher the thought in general. The BCI can only identify and classify specific patterns of activity in ongoing brain signals associated with specific tasks or events. EEG is the most commonly used non-invasive BCI method as it can be obtained easily compared to other methods. In this study; It will be given how EEG signals are obtained from the scalp, with which waves these frequencies are named and in which brain states these waves occur. 10-20 electrode placement plan for EEG to be placed on the scalp will be shown.

The feature analysis of epileptic EEG is very significant in diagnosis of epilepsy. This paper introduces two nonlinear features derived from fractal geometry for epileptic EEG analysis. The features of blanket dimension and fractal intercept are extracted to characterize behavior of EEG activities, and then their discriminatory power for ictal and interictal EEGs are compared by means of statistical methods. It is found that there is significant difference of the blanket dimension and fractal intercept between interictal and ictal EEGs, and the difference of the fractal intercept feature between interictal and ictal EEGs is more noticeable than the blanket dimension feature. Furthermore, these two fractal features at multi-scales are combined with support vector machine (SVM) to achieve accuracies of 97.58% for ictal and interictal EEG classification and 97.13% for normal, ictal and interictal EEG classification.

Controlling a robotic device by using human brain signals is an interesting and challenging task. The device may be complicated to control and the nonstationary nature of the brain signals provides for a rather unstable input. With the use of intelligent processing algorithms adapted to the task at hand, however, the performance can be increased. This paper introduces a shared control system that helps the subject in driving an intelligent wheelchair with a noninvasive brain interface. The subject's steering intentions are estimated from electroencephalogram (EEG) signals and passed through to the shared control system before being sent to the wheelchair motors. Experimental results show a possibility for significant improvement in the overall driving performance when using the shared control system compared to driving without it. These results have been obtained with 2 healthy subjects during their first day of training with the brain-actuated wheelchair.
