Signal Processing

Background:

Transcranial Doppler (TCD) is a novel brain-computer interface (BCI) modality.
Previous studies demonstrated TCD for detecting task-induced hemispheric lateralization using long activation periods (45s).
Detecting successive lateralizations in a user-independent framework remains unexplored.

Purpose of the Study:

To evaluate TCD-based detection of lateralized mental activity using a user-independent classifier.
To assess the accuracy of detecting successive brain lateralizations.
To explore TCD-BCI design feasibility.

Main Methods:

Collected TCD data from 18 participants during verbal fluency, mental rotation, and baseline counting tasks.
Employed linear discriminant analysis and four time-domain features for classification.
Classified successive left and right brain activations.

Main Results:

Achieved up to 74.6 ± 12.6% accuracy in a user-independent framework.
Utilized training data from a single participant.
Required shorter lateralization task durations of 18 seconds.

Conclusions:

Subject-independent classification of TCD signals for successive brain lateralization is feasible.
This approach may enable practical TCD-BCI system design.
Further research can optimize TCD-BCI performance.
