Extracting wavelet based neural features from human intracortical recordings for neuroprosthetics applications.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Understanding the long-term behavior of intracortically-recorded signals is essential for improving the performance of Brain Computer Interfaces. However, few studies have systematically investigated chronic neural recordings from an implanted microelectrode array in the human brain.

Methods

In this study, we show the applicability of wavelet decomposition method to extract and demonstrate the utility of long-term stable features in neural signals obtained from a microelectrode array implanted in the motor cortex of a human with tetraplegia. Wavelet decomposition was applied to the raw voltage data to generate mean wavelet power (MWP) features, which were further divided into three sub-frequency bands, low-frequency MWP (lf-MWP, 0-234 Hz), mid-frequency MWP
