Background:

Motor imagery (MI)-based brain-computer interface (BCI) systems utilize electroencephalography (EEG) signals for decoding brain activity.
Current deep learning approaches often overlook crucial temporal dependencies within MI-related EEG patterns, limiting decoding performance.
Subject-specific BCI development requires robust learning of temporal dynamics in MI tasks.

Purpose of the Study:

To propose a novel temporal dependency learning convolutional neural network (CNN) with an attention mechanism for enhanced MI-EEG decoding.
To address the limitations of existing methods in capturing temporal relationships among MI-related patterns across different task stages.
To improve the accuracy and robustness of subject-specific MI-based BCI systems.

Main Methods:

A CNN architecture incorporating a spatial convolution block to learn spatial and spectral features from multi-view EEG data.
Segmentation of EEG data into non-overlapped time windows to extract discriminative features from different MI stages.
Implementation of a temporal attention module to weigh and fuse features across time windows, capturing temporal dependencies.

Main Results:

The proposed network achieved an average accuracy of 79.48% on the BCI Competition IV-2a (BCIC-IV-2a) dataset, a 2.30% improvement over existing methods.
Demonstrated superior performance compared to state-of-the-art algorithms on both BCIC-IV-2a and OpenBMI datasets.
Validated the effectiveness of learning temporal dependencies for improving MI-EEG decoding.

Conclusions:

The novel temporal dependency learning CNN with an attention mechanism significantly enhances MI-EEG decoding performance.
Capturing temporal dependencies is critical for developing high-performing, subject-specific MI-based BCIs.
The proposed method offers a promising advancement in BCI technology for decoding complex brain signals.
