Background:

Non-invasive brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) facilitate user interaction with external devices using electroencephalogram (EEG) signals.
Decoding EEG signals across diverse headsets presents a significant challenge due to variations in electrode count and placement.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop a method for effective transfer learning in non-invasive BCIs across heterogeneous EEG headsets.
To address the problem of decoding EEG signals despite differences in headset hardware.

Main Methods:

A novel spatial distillation based distribution alignment (SDDA) approach was proposed.
SDDA employs spatial distillation and distribution alignment across input, feature, and output spaces to handle domain differences.

Main Results:

SDDA demonstrated superior performance in both offline unsupervised and online supervised domain adaptation.
The method consistently outperformed 10 established transfer learning algorithms across six EEG datasets and two BCI paradigms.

Conclusions:

The proposed SDDA approach enables effective transfer learning between heterogeneous EEG headsets.
This advancement improves and accelerates the calibration process for BCIs.
