Classification of finger movements through optimal EEG channel and feature selection by Murside Degirmenci, Yilmaz Kemal Yuce, Matjaž Perc, Matjaž Perc, Matjaž Perc, Matjaž Perc, Matjaž Perc, Yalcin Isler

“…IntroductionElectrencephalography (EEG)-based brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) have become popular as EEG is accepted as the simplest and non-invasive neuroimaging modality to record the brain's electrical activity. In the current BCI research context, apart from predicting extremity movements, recent BCI studies have been interested in accurately predicting finger movements of the same hand using different pattern recognition methods over EEG data collected based on motor imagery (MI), through which a mental image of the desired action is generated when a person ideally simulates or imagines carrying out a certain motor task. …”

Conceptual approaches to the complex of restoration of the affected territories as a result of military actions in Ukraine by Liudmyla Datsenko, Svitlana Titova, Marharyta Dubnytska

“…Results and conclusions: The land relations during the reconstruction of Ukraine should be based on the following principles and approaches: openness of the public cadastral map of Ukraine; simplification of permit procedures; assessment of land and soil quality, inventory; continuation of the trend of decreasing arable land; conservation of lands, the use of which could harm human life and health as well as the state of the environment; expropriation of land from tenants who are connected to Russia or Belarus; soil conservation in the context of war; introduction of the state system for the control of land resources and the responsibility of land users.…”
