Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Human-Computer Interaction

Background:

  • Motor imagery (MI) is a key brain-computer interface (BCI) control method.
  • MI-BCI calibration is lengthy and tedious, reducing user-friendliness.
  • Motor execution (ME) and motor observation (MO) are less fatiguing alternatives with similar neural underpinnings.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a user-friendly MI-BCI using task-to-task transfer learning.
  • To integrate and compare ME, MO, and MI tasks within a BCI framework.
  • To enhance MI-BCI performance and reduce calibration time.

Main Methods:

  • Acquired electroencephalography (EEG) data from 28 subjects performing ME, MO, and MI tasks.
  • Analyzed alpha rhythm event-related desynchronization (ERD) patterns.
  • Implemented and evaluated task-to-task transfer learning models, including combined datasets.

Main Results:

  • ME and MO tasks showed similar alpha rhythm ERD patterns to MI, but with temporal differences.
  • Within-task accuracies were 67.05% (ME), 65.93% (MI), and 73.16% (MO).
  • Transfer learning with ME and 50% MI data improved MI classification accuracy to 69.21%, outperforming within-task accuracy.

Conclusions:

  • Task-to-task transfer learning is feasible for MI-BCI.
  • Integrating ME and MO tasks can significantly enhance MI-BCI training protocols.
  • This approach offers a promising solution for creating more user-friendly and efficient MI-BCIs.
