Signal Processing

Background:

Non-invasive brain-machine interfaces (BMIs) commonly decode sensorimotor rhythms from sustained motor imagery.
The termination phase of motor imagery, crucial for control, is often overlooked in BMI research.

Purpose of the Study:

To decode motor imagery termination using electroencephalogram (EEG) signals.
To investigate the application of a motor imagery termination decoder in closed-loop BMIs.

Main Methods:

Participants (N=9) performed simultaneous kinesthetic motor imagery of both hands, cued by a clock.
EEG signals were used to develop a decoder identifying transitions between event-related desynchronization and synchronization.
Features included upper μ and β band correlates of motor termination.

Main Results:

The decoder achieved 76.2% accuracy, demonstrating robustness.
Motor termination decoding exhibited intrinsic latency due to delayed signal correlates.
Users successfully compensated for this predictable latency after training.

Conclusions:

Decoding motor imagery termination enables effective closed-loop BMI control.
Users adapted their behavior to accurately stop devices using this decoding method.
This research highlights the significance of closed-loop evaluations and opens new avenues for BMI control via movement termination decoding.
