    Area of Science:

    • Neuroscience
    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Rehabilitation Technology

    Background:

    • Brain-machine interfaces (BMIs) offer potential for independence in paralyzed individuals.
    • Current BMIs face performance limitations due to errors, reducing typing speed.
    • Detecting errors without task knowledge could enhance BMI functionality.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To decode neural activity for detecting and predicting errors in closed-loop BMIs.
    • To investigate motor cortical signals related to task errors.
    • To improve the clinical viability of BMIs.

    Main Methods:

    • Intracortical spiking neural activity was recorded during closed-loop BMI control.
    • A non-human primate controlled a neurally-driven cursor on a virtual keyboard.
    • Offline analysis identified neural correlates of task error occurrence and prediction.

    Main Results:

    • Task outcomes were detected with 97% accuracy using neural activity alone.
    • Upcoming task outcomes were predicted with 86% accuracy from neural signals.
    • Motor cortical signals were found to be indicative of BMI task errors.

    Conclusions:

    • Neural decoding can identify and predict errors in real-time BMI operation.
    • This error detection strategy may significantly enhance BMI performance.
    • The findings support the potential for increased clinical viability of BMIs.
