Physiol Behav 2024; 284:114626. [PMID: 38964566 DOI: 10.1016/j.physbeh.2024.114626] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2024] [Revised: 06/19/2024] [Accepted: 07/01/2024] [Indexed: 07/06/2024]
Abstract
The existence of Virtual Reality Motion Sickness (VRMS) is a key factor restricting the further development of the VR industry, and the premise to solve this problem is to be able to accurately and effectively detect its occurrence. In view of the current lack of high-accuracy and effective detection methods, this paper proposes a VRMS detection method based on entropy asymmetry and cross-frequency coupling value asymmetry of EEG. First of all, the EEG of the four selected pairs of electrodes on the bilateral brain are subjected to Multivariate Variational Mode Decomposition (MVMD) respectively, and three types of entropy values on the low-frequency and high-frequency components are calculated, namely approximate entropy, fuzzy entropy and permutation entropy, as well as three types of phase-amplitude coupling features between the low-frequency and high-frequency components, namely the mean value, standard deviation and correlation coefficient; Secondly, the difference of the entropies and the cross-frequency coupling features between the left electrodes and the right electrodes are calculated; Finally, the final feature set are selected via t-test and fed into the SVM for classification, thus realizing the automatic detection of VRMS. The results show that the three classification indexes under this method, i.e., accuracy, sensitivity and specificity, reach 99.5 %, 99.3 % and 99.7 %, respectively, and the value of the area under the ROC curve reached 1, which proves that this method can be an effective indicator for detecting the occurrence of VRMS.

Multimodal brain-controlled system for rehabilitation training: Combining asynchronous online brain-computer interface and exoskeleton. J Neurosci Methods 2024; 406:110132. [PMID: 38604523 DOI: 10.1016/j.jneumeth.2024.110132] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2023] [Revised: 03/11/2024] [Accepted: 04/03/2024] [Indexed: 04/13/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Traditional therapist-based rehabilitation training for patients with movement impairment is laborious and expensive. In order to reduce the cost and improve the treatment effect of rehabilitation, many methods based on human-computer interaction (HCI) technology have been proposed, such as robot-assisted therapy and functional electrical stimulation (FES). However, due to the lack of active participation of brain, these methods have limited effects on the promotion of damaged nerve remodeling. NEW METHOD Based on the neurofeedback training provided by the combination of brain-computer interface (BCI) and exoskeleton, this paper proposes a multimodal brain-controlled active rehabilitation system to help improve limb function. The joint control mode of steady-state visual evoked potential (SSVEP) and motor imagery (MI) is adopted to achieve self-paced control and thus maximize the degree of brain involvement, and a requirement selection function based on SSVEP design is added to facilitate communication with aphasia patients. COMPARISON WITH EXISTING METHODS In addition, the Transformer is introduced as the MI decoder in the asynchronous online BCI to improve the global perception of electroencephalogram (EEG) signals and maintain the sensitivity and efficiency of the system. RESULTS In two multi-task online experiments for left hand, right hand, foot and idle states, subject achieves 91.25% and 92.50% best accuracy, respectively. CONCLUSION Compared with previous studies, this paper aims to establish a high-performance and low-latency brain-controlled rehabilitation system, and provide an independent and autonomous control mode of the brain, so as to improve the effect of neural remodeling. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated through offline and online experiments.

Abstract
This study aimed to improve the performance of single-channel steady-state visual evoked potential (SSVEP)-based visual acuity assessment by mode decomposition methods. Using the SSVEP dataset induced by the vertical sinusoidal gratings at six spatial frequency steps from 11 subjects, 3-40-Hz band-pass filtering and other four mode decomposition methods, i.e., empirical mode decomposition (EMD), ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD), improved complete ensemble empirical mode decomposition with adaptive noise (ICEEMDAN), and variational mode decomposition (VMD), were used to preprocess the single-channel SSVEP signals from Oz electrode. After comparing the SSVEP signal characteristics corresponding to each mode decomposition method, the visual acuity threshold estimation criterion was used to obtain the final visual acuity results. The agreement between subjective Freiburg Visual Acuity and Contrast Test (FrACT) and SSVEP visual acuity for band-pass filtering (-0.095 logMAR), EMD (-0.112 logMAR), EEMD (-0.098 logMAR), ICEEMDAN (-0.093 logMAR), and VMD (-0.090 logMAR) was all pretty good, with an acceptable difference between FrACT and SSVEP acuity for band-pass filtering (0.129 logMAR), EMD (0.083 logMAR), EEMD (0.120 logMAR), ICEEMDAN (0.103 logMAR), and VMD (0.108 logMAR), finding that the visual acuity obtained by these four mode decompositions had a lower limit of agreement and a lower or close difference compared to the traditional band-pass filtering method. This study proved that the mode decomposition methods can enhance the performance of single-channel SSVEP-based visual acuity assessment, and also recommended ICEEEMDAN as the mode decomposition method for single-channel electroencephalography (EEG) signal denoising in the SSVEP visual acuity assessment.

Abstract
This article explores the detection of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, a neurobehavioral disorder, from electroencephalography signals. Due to the unstable behavior of electroencephalography signals caused by complex neuronal activity in the brain, frequency analysis methods are required to extract the hidden patterns. In this study, the feature extraction was performed with the Multitaper and Multivariate Variational Mode Decomposition methods. Then, these features were analyzed with the neighborhood component analysis and the features that contribute effectively to the classification were selected. The deep learning model including the convolution, pooling, and bidirectional long short term cell and fully connected layer was trained with the selected features. The trained model could effectively classify the subjects with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder with a deep learning model, support vector machines and linear discriminant analysis. The experiments were validated with an Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder open access dataset ( https://doi.org/10.21227/rzfh-zn36 ). In validation, the deep learning model was able to classify 1210 test samples (600 subjects in the control group as Normal and 610 subjects in the ADHD group as ADHD) in 0.1 s with an accuracy of 95.54%. This accuracy rate is quite high compared to the Linear Discriminant Analysis (76.38%) and Support Vector Machines (81.69%). Experimental results showed that the proposed approach can innovatively classify Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder subjects from the Control group effectively.

Abstract
Augmented reality-based brain-computer interface (AR-BCI) system is one of the important ways to promote BCI technology outside of the laboratory due to its portability and mobility, but its performance in real-world scenarios has not been fully studied. In the current study, we first investigated the effect of ambient brightness on AR-BCI performance. 5 different light intensities were set as experimental conditions to simulate typical brightness in real scenes, while the same steady-state visual evoked potentials (SSVEP) stimulus was displayed in the AR glass. The data analysis results showed that SSVEP can be evoked under all 5 light intensities, but the response intensity became weaker when the brightness increased. The recognition accuracies of AR-SSVEP were negatively correlated to light intensity, the highest accuracies were 89.35% with FBCCA and 83.33% with CCA under 0 lux light intensity, while they decreased to 62.53% and 49.24% under 1200 lux. To solve the accuracy loss problem in high ambient brightness, we further designed a SSVEP recognition algorithm with iterative learning capability, named ensemble online adaptive CCA (eOACCA). The main strategy is to provide initial filters for high-intensity data by iteratively learning low-light-intensity AR-SSVEP data. The experimental results showed that the eOACCA algorithm had significant advantages under higher light intensities ( 600 lux). Compared with FBCCA, the accuracy of eOACCA under 1200 lux was increased by 13.91%. In conclusion, the current study contributed to the in-depth understanding of the performance variations of AR-BCI under different lighting conditions, and was helpful in promoting the AR-BCI application in complex lighting environments.

Abstract
Mathematical programming and meta-heuristics are two types of optimization methods. Meta-heuristic algorithms can identify optimal/near-optimal solutions by mimicking natural behaviours or occurrences and provide benefits such as simplicity of execution, a few parameters, avoidance of local optimization, and flexibility. Many meta-heuristic algorithms have been introduced to solve optimization issues, each of which has advantages and disadvantages. Studies and research on presented meta-heuristic algorithms in prestigious journals showed they had good performance in solving hybrid, improved and mutated problems. This paper reviews the sparrow search algorithm (SSA), one of the new and robust algorithms for solving optimization problems. This paper covers all the SSA literature on variants, improvement, hybridization, and optimization. According to studies, the use of SSA in the mentioned areas has been equal to 32%, 36%, 4%, and 28%, respectively. The highest percentage belongs to Improved, which has been analyzed by three subsections: Meat-Heuristics, artificial neural networks, and Deep Learning.

Abstract
This paper discusses a machine learning approach for detecting SSVEP at both ears with minimal channels. SSVEP is a robust EEG signal suitable for many BCI applications. It is strong at the visual cortex around the occipital area, but the SNR gets worse when detected from other areas of the head. To make use of SSVEP measured around the ears following the ear-EEG concept, especially for practical binaural implementation, we propose a CNN structure coupled with regressed softmax outputs to improve accuracy. Evaluating on a public dataset, we studied classification performance for both subject-dependent and subject-independent trainings. It was found that with the proposed structure using a group training approach, a 69.21% accuracy was achievable. An ITR of 6.42 bit/min given 63.49 % accuracy was recorded while only monitoring data from T7 and T8. This represents a 12.47% improvement from a single ear implementation and illustrates potential of the approach to enhance performance for practical implementation of wearable EEG.
