Filter bank common spatial pattern and envelope-based features in multimodal EEG-fTCD brain-computer interfaces.

ABSTRACT: Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) provide alternative means of communication and control for individuals with severe motor or speech impairments. Multimodal BCIs have been introduced recently to enhance the performance of BCIs utilizing single modality. In this paper, we aim to advance the state of the art in multimodal BCIs combining Electroencephalography (EEG) and functional transcranial Doppler ultrasound (fTCD) by introducing advanced analysis approaches that enhance system performance. Our EEG-fTCD BCIs employ two distinct paradigms to infer user intent: motor imagery (MI) and flickering mental rotation (MR)/word generation (WG) paradigms. In the MI paradigm, we introduce the use of Filter Bank Common Spatial Pattern (FBCSP) for the first time in an EEG-fTCD BCI, while in the flickeri
