Single-Course English 5 ECTS

Principles of brain computer interface

Overall Course Objectives

The objective is to obtain basic understanding of Brain Computer Interface (BCI: Computer-based systems that record, decode and translate measurable neurophysiological signals into commands for output devices to perform an action without any muscular activation). This is achieved by incorporating real-time signal processing methods for the feature extraction and classification in EEG (electroencephalography)-based BCIs.

Learning Objectives

  • describe the EEG signals that can be detected as markers of mental activity
  • describe different BCI systems and neural prostheses
  • apply signal processing techniques to condition the EEG signals
  • develop methods for extracting relevant features
  • implement classification algorithms to classify these signals
  • build a functioning BCI system
  • review and present selected scientific articles
  • discuss the developments and the future of this field

Course Content

Brain-Computer Interface based on different types of EEGs will be covered in the form of lectures, discussions, practical and theoretical learning methods. The students will be asked to present a scientific article. A BCI design group project (group of 2) using the available BCI data or new data will be completed with a final report and a presentation.
