中文简介:
在演讲的第一部分,我将介绍一种新型的脑电图电极。目前BCI研究中的主流EEG电极设置允许有效的记录,但通常体积庞大,受试者不舒服。最近,我们介绍了一种新型的脑电图电极,它是为最佳穿着舒适度而设计的。这种新型电极被试者感觉不到,因此可以以最方便的方式记录脑电图。此外,电极对外部观察者来说几乎是看不见的。这一点非常重要,尤其是当佩戴脑电图电极的人或使用脑电图电极观察受试者时会引起不适/不必要的注意。在演讲的第二部分,我将介绍一种提取神经元振荡的新算法。神经元振荡已被证明是大脑中各种认知、知觉和运动功能的基础,其振幅反应性通常用于脑机接口研究。然而,众所周知,由于来自多个来源的大量活动重叠以及强烈的背景噪声,用EEG/MEG记录研究这些振荡是非常困难的。我将提出一种新的方法,从多通道EEG/MEG/LFP记录中快速可靠地提取神经元振荡。该方法基于对记录的线性分解:它最大化峰值频率处的信号功率,同时在相邻的、周围的频率库处使其最小化。这种方法可以优化信噪比,并允许提取具有典型振荡过程的“尖峰”光谱轮廓的成分。我们将这种方法称为空间谱分解(SSD)。由于SSD的高精度和快速性,我们认为SSD可以作为从多通道电生理记录中提取神经元振荡的可靠方法。
课程简介: In the first part of the talk I will present a new type of EEG electrodes. Current mainstream EEG electrode setups in BCI research permit efficient recordings, but are often bulky and uncomfortable for subjects. Recently we introduced a novel type of EEG electrode, which is designed for an optimal wearing comfort. This novel electrode is not felt by the subject and therefore recordings of EEG are performed in a most convenient way. Moreover, the electrode is close to invisible to an external observer. This is important especially for the situations when discomfort/unnecessary attention can be aroused either in the person wearing EEG electrodes or in persons who observe a subject with EEG electrodes. In the second part of the talk I will present a novel algorithm for the extraction of neuronal oscillations. Neuronal oscillations have been shown to underlie various cognitive, perceptual and motor functions in the brain and their amplitude reactivity is used commonly in BCI research. However, studying these oscillations is notoriously difficult with EEG/MEG recordings due to a massive overlap of activity from multiple sources and also due to the strong background noise. I will present a novel method for the reliable and fast extraction of neuronal oscillations from multi-channel EEG/MEG/LFP recordings. The method is based on a linear decomposition of recordings: it maximizes the signal power at a peak frequency while simultaneously minimizing it at the neighboring, surrounding frequency bins. Such procedure leads to the optimization of signal-to-noise ratio and allows extraction of components with a characteristic "peaky" spectral profile, which is typical for oscillatory processes. We refer to this method as spatio-spectral decomposition (SSD). Due to the high accuracy and speed, we suggest that SSD can be used as a reliable method for the extraction of neuronal oscillations from multi-channel electrophysiological recordings.
