Abstract

In Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) Research,Electroencephalography (EEG) has obtained great attention for biomedical applications. In BCI system, feature representation and classification are important tasks as the accuracy of classification highly depends on these stages. In this paper, we propose a model in which Common Spatial Pattern (CSP) is used to discriminate inter-class data using co-variance maximization and Fast Fourier Transform Energy Map (FFTEM) is used for feature selection and mapping of 1D data into 2D data (energy maps). Convolutional Neural Network is used for classification of multi-class Motor Imagery (MI) signals. Further, this paper investigates near-optimal parameter selection for feature mapping, frequency bands selection, and temporal segmentation. It is shown that our proposed method outperformed the reported methods by achieving 0.61 mean kappa value.
