Through the simultaneous diagonalization of the covariance matrices, CSP intends to transform data into another mapping with data of different categories having maximal differences in their measures of dispersion. This paper shows the objective function realized by original CSP method could be inaccurate by regularizing the estimated spatial covariance matrix from EEG data by trace, leading to some flaws in the features to be extracted. In order to deal with this problem, a novel deep CSP (DCSP) model with optimal objective function is proposed in this paper. The benefits of the proposed DCSP method over original CSP method are verified with experiments on two EEG based MI datasets where the classification accuracy is effectively improved.

A Unified Brightness Temperature Features Analysis Framework for Mapping Mare Basalt Units Using Chang’e-2 Lunar Microwave Sounder (CELMS) Data

“…Recently, machine learning models have been gradually introduced into lunar and planetary research [52][53][54]. Further studies will explore the potential of more advanced machine learning models with regard to lunar brightness temperature analysis [55][56][57].…”

Understanding the effects of hand design on embodiment in virtual reality

“…In our study, users' eye tracking data were detected and analyzed to help explore their embodied experience in VEs. Physiological data of users are becoming promising methods of user experience evaluation for researchers and designers, such as eye tracking (Zhang et al, 2022a) and electroencephalography (Alchalabi et al, 2019), along with the development of artificial intelligence for physiological data processing (Batliner et al, 2020;Wan et al, 2021;Yu et al, 2022). Using eye tracking and other physiological data to infer user reactions and perceptions toward difference virtual avatar designs could be an exciting direction for future work.…”

Evaluating the feeling of control in virtual object translation on 2D interfaces

“…Rather than recalling experiences in self-report, EEG data are captured to assess users' feeling of control directly (Wen et al, 2019;Sun et al, 2022b), employing EEG spectral power, EEG phase coherence, and EEG microstate. Due to the development of artificial intelligence for signal processing (Wan et al, 2021;Yu et al, 2022), EEG becomes a valuable and popular tool for evaluating the user's experience when interacting with the product or system. Based on EEG analysis, the alpha band has been proven to be highly related with SoA, not only alpha power (Zito et al, 2020;Nataraj and Sanford, 2021), but also alpha coherence (Mathewson et al, 2011).…”
