• Abstract: Brain-computer interface systems and the recording of brain activity has garnered significant attention across a diverse spectrum of applications. EEG signals have emerged as a modality for recording neural electrical activity. Among the methodologies designed for feature extraction from EEG data, the method of RCSP has proven to be an approach, particularly in the context of MI tasks. RCSP exhibits efficacy in the discrimination and classification of EEG signals. In optimizing the performance of this method, our research extends to a comparative analysis with conventional CSP techniques, as well as optimized methodologies designed for similar applications. Notably, we employ the meta-heuristic multi-objective Strength Pareto Evolutionary Algorithm II (SPEA-II) as a pivotal component of our research paradigm. This is a state-of-the-art approach in the selection of an subset of channels from a multichannel EEG signal with MI tasks. Our main objective is to formulate an optimum channel selection strategy aimed at identifying the most pertinent subset of channels from the multi-dimensional electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. One of the primary objectives inherent to channel selection in the EEG signal analysis pertains to the reduction of the channel count, an approach that enhances user comfort when utilizing gel-based EEG electrodes. Additionally, within this research, we took benefit of ensemble learning models as a component of our decision-making. This technique serves to mitigate the challenges associated with overfitting, especially when confronted with an extensive array of potentially redundant EEG channels and data noise. Our findings not only affirm the performance of RCSP in MI-based BCI systems, but also underscore the significance of channel selection strategies and ensemble learning techniques in optimizing the performance of EEG signal classification.

  Brain-computer interface (BCI) technology enables direct interaction between humans and computers by analyzing brain signals. EEG signals are often affected by a low signal-to-noise ratio, physiological artifacts, and individual variability, representing challenges in extracting distinct features. Also, motor imagery (MI)-based EEG signals could contain features with low correlation to MI characteristics, which might cause the weights of the deep model to become biased towards those features.

After training, the algorithm can be exploited by transferring only the parametrized subgroup of selected channel-specific 1D-CNNs to new signals from new subjects.
