Analysis of key factors on ERD production for BCI neuro-robotic rehabilitation

Bypassing the Natural Visual-Motor Pathway to Execute Complex Movement Related Tasks Using Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Sets

“…Since the visual-motor pathways are affected for these types of patients, the proper signals cannot be acquired directly from the motor cortex. Thus conventional BCI systems [2], [4], [5], [80], [82], [83], aiming at generation of control commands for rehabilitative aids (such as brain-commanded artificial limbs [Fill me: Saugat Journal paper-P300 based limb]) from the acquired EEG signals captured directly from the motor cortex are unsuitable for the above types of patients. Thus, focusing on the patients with impaired visual-motor coordination due to damaged prefrontal, parietal and/or motor cortex, this paper attempts to derive the mapping of occipital to parietal and prefrontal lobe to motor cortical EEG features from successful instances of visual-motor coordination task and use this mapping in future to offer rehabilitative aids to these patients.…”

“…There exists a lot many works on EEG driven motor planning/control [2], [4], [5], [80], [82], [83]. A few works that require special mention in this regard include EEG driven mind controlled wheelchair [1], [84], [85], brain-actuated asynchronous control of humanoid robots [86], BCI based unmanned car control [88], virtual gaming [89] and other applications [82].…”
