“…SSVEPs are natural responses to visual stimuli at specific frequencies, with the strongest response at frequencies approximately 15 Hz or 20 Hz [27]. This technique involves a blinking stimulus presented at a specific frequency that results in brain waves of the same frequency synchronizing in the occipital lobe, which can be used to control various devices and develop BCI applications [25,[27][28][29]. In a preliminary study, we demonstrated that mu suppression and SSVEP expression were simultaneously observed during AO training with a flickering action video and it was possible to confirm whether the user was actually watching the flickering action video [30].…”

Action observation (AO), based on the mirror neuron theory, is a promising strategy to promote motor cortical activation in neurorehabilitation. Brain computer interface (BCI) can detect a user’s intention and provide them with brain state-dependent feedback to assist with patient rehabilitation. We investigated the effects of a combined BCI-AO game on power of mu band attenuation in stroke patients. Nineteen patients with subacute stroke were recruited. A BCI-AO game provided real-time feedback to participants regarding their attention to a flickering action video using steady-state visual-evoked potentials. All participants watched a video of repetitive grasping actions under two conditions: (1) BCI-AO game and (2) conventional AO, in random order. In the BCI-AO game, feedback on participants’ observation scores and observation time was provided. In conventional AO, a non-flickering video and no feedback were provided. The magnitude of mu suppression in the central motor, temporal, parietal, and occipital areas was significantly higher in the BCI-AO game than in the conventional AO. The magnitude of mu suppression was significantly higher in the BCI-AO game than in the conventional AO both in the affected and unaffected hemispheres. These results support the facilitatory effects of the BCI-AO game on mu suppression over conventional AO.

“…In the real world, simulations to someone do not occur one by one but normally come at the same time, just like watching while listening. In this situation, the EEG dynamics of the brain is very difficult to recognize, such as the discrimination between neuronal activities related to visual from auditory stimuli [38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45]. This study revealed how multisensory information integrates into the human brain under inhibition and the results should be helpful for understanding how auditory inputs affect visual perception and behavior.…”

Inhibitory control is a cognitive process that inhibits a response. It is used in everyday activities, such as driving a motorcycle, driving a car and playing a game. The effect of this process can be compared to the red traffic light in the real world. In this study, we investigated brain connectivity under human inhibitory control using the phase lag index and inter-trial coherence (ITC). The human brain connectivity gives a more accurate representation of the functional neural network. Results of electroencephalography (EEG), the data sets were generated from twelve healthy subjects during left and right hand inhibitions using the auditory stop-signal task, showed that the inter-trial coherence in delta (1–4 Hz) and theta (4–7 Hz) band powers increased over the frontal and temporal lobe of the brain. These EEG delta and theta band activities neural markers have been related to human inhibition in the frontal lobe. In addition, inter-trial coherence in the delta-theta and alpha (8–12 Hz) band powers increased at the occipital lobe through visual stimulation. Moreover, the highest brain connectivity was observed under inhibitory control in the frontal lobe between F3-F4 channels compared to temporal and occipital lobes. The greater EEG coherence and phase lag index in the frontal lobe is associated with the human response inhibition. These findings revealed new insights to understand the neural network of brain connectivity and underlying mechanisms during human response inhibition.

“…As we know, the critical issue of BCI rehabilitation revolves around how to promote the biofeedback effect for active intervention (Ko et al, 2019 ). It was positive for rehabilitation outcomes, enhancing cortical activity for neural recovery, and increasing confidences of voluntary training (Zhang et al, 2020 ).…”

An Inter- and Intra-Subject Transfer Calibration Scheme for Improving Feedback Performance of Sensorimotor Rhythm-Based BCI Rehabilitation

et al. 2021

The Brain Computer Interface (BCI) system is a typical neurophysiological application which helps paralyzed patients with human-machine communication. Stroke patients with motor disabilities are able to perform BCI tasks for clinical rehabilitation. This paper proposes an effective scheme of transfer calibration for BCI rehabilitation. The inter- and intra-subject transfer learning approaches can improve the low-precision classification performance for experimental feedback. The results imply that the systematical scheme is positive in increasing the confidence of voluntary training for stroke patients. In addition, it also reduces the time consumption of classifier calibration.
