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. …”
