Detection of movement-related patterns in ongoing single-channel electrocorticogram
Adaptive autoregressive parameters and a linear classifier were used to detect movement related desynchronization and synchronization patterns in single-channel electrocorticogram (ECoG) obtained from implanted electrode grids. The best classification accuracies found had more than 90% hits and less than 10% false positives. The findings show that the detection of event-related desynchronization and synchronization in ECoG data can be used to reliably provide switch control directly by the brain and is therefore very suitable as the basis of a direct brain interface.
