“…These periodic patterns may also lead to migraine headache ( DeTommaso et al, 1999 ) or even epileptic seizures ( Fisher et al, 2005 ). Studies have used various methods including the use of high-frequency stimuli rather than lower frequencies ( Allison et al, 2010 ; Sakurada et al, 2015 ; Ajami et al, 2018 ), polychromatic stimuli ( Chien et al, 2017 ), motion Newton’s rings and motion checkerboards ( Xie et al, 2012 , 2017 ; Yan et al, 2017 ; Han et al, 2018 ), and rhythmic pattern stimuli ( Keihani et al, 2018 ) to minimize the subjective visual fatigue, which still remains an important problem in VEP-based BCI applications.…”
