Higher Mental Functions of Brain: Learning and Memory01:26

Higher Mental Functions of Brain: Learning and Memory

2.1K
Memory is one of the most vital higher mental functions of the brain. Memory is closely related to learning because it enables us to retain information and experiences from our past to use them in our present life. It also helps us to remember facts, events, and skills, such as riding a bike or swimming. There are two types of memory — declarative memory, which involves memorizing facts or events, and procedural memory, which enables us to remember how to do something like writing or...

Protein-protein Interfaces02:04

Protein-protein Interfaces

14.8K
Many proteins form complexes to carry out their functions, making protein-protein interactions (PPIs) essential for an organism's survival. Most PPIs are stabilized by numerous weak noncovalent chemical forces. The physical shape of the interfaces determines the way two proteins interact. Many globular proteins have closely-matching shapes on their surfaces, which form a large number of weak bonds. Additionally, many PPIs occur between two helices or between a surface cleft and a...

Hybrid Zones02:29

Hybrid Zones

22.0K
Hybrid zones are narrow regions where two closely related species interact, mate, and produce hybrids. Relative to either parent species, hybrids may possess distinct phenotypic or genetic differences that impact their survival and reproductive success. The genetic variances introduced by hybridization influence species diversity and speciation processes within the hybrid zone.

Hybridization of Atomic Orbitals I03:24

Hybridization of Atomic Orbitals I

67.9K
The mathematical expression known as the wave function, ψ, contains information about each orbital and the wavelike properties of electrons in an isolated atom. When atoms are bound together in a molecule, the wave functions combine to produce new mathematical descriptions that have different shapes. This process of combining the wave functions for atomic orbitals is called hybridization and is mathematically accomplished by the linear combination of atomic orbitals. The new orbitals that...

Force Classification01:22

Force Classification

2.5K
Forces play a crucial role in the study of physics and engineering. They are essential in describing the motion, behavior, and equilibrium of objects in the physical world. Forces can be classified based on their origin, type, and direction of action.
Contact and non-contact forces are two of the most widely used categories of forces. As the name suggests, contact forces require physical contact between two objects to act upon each other. Examples of contact forces include frictional,...

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Artificial Intelligence
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Brain-computer interfaces (BCI) traditionally use electroencephalography (EEG).
  • Recent advancements involve combining EEG with functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) for richer brain data.
  • Deep neural networks (DNNs) offer advanced capabilities for complex signal classification.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the efficacy of combining EEG and fNIRS recordings with deep learning for BCI.
  • To enhance brain state classification accuracy in BCI systems.
  • To evaluate the synergistic effect of multi-modal recordings and DNNs.

Main Methods:

  • A guided left and right hand motor imagery task was conducted on 15 subjects.
  • Classification accuracy of a DNN using combined EEG and fNIRS data was assessed.
  • Performance was compared against standalone EEG, standalone fNIRS, and other classifiers.

Main Results:

  • A significant increase in classification performance was observed using multi-modal recordings (EEG + fNIRS) with a DNN classifier.
  • The combination of modalities and DNNs demonstrated a synergistic effect on BCI performance.
  • Group-level analysis confirmed the enhanced accuracy provided by the integrated approach.

Conclusions:

  • Multi-modal recordings capturing both electrical (EEG) and hemodynamic (fNIRS) brain activity significantly boost BCI performance.
  • Advanced non-linear deep learning classification procedures are crucial for leveraging multi-modal data effectively.
  • This integrated approach holds substantial promise for improving the capabilities and applications of brain-computer interfaces.
