    Area of Science:

    • Neuroscience
    • Neural Engineering
    • Rehabilitation Technology

    Background:

    • Decoding motor intentions from noninvasive brain recordings is crucial for brain-computer interfaces (BCIs).
    • Traditional motor imagery (MI) paradigms have limitations in task definition and sensorimotor rhythm (SMR) variability, leading to suboptimal BCI accuracy (70-75%) and high inefficiency (35-50%).

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce and evaluate a novel rhythmic motor imagery (MI) paradigm designed to induce steady-state movement-related rhythms (SSMRR).
    • To investigate if this rhythmic MI approach can enhance the performance of noninvasive BCIs.

    Main Methods:

    • A rhythmic MI paradigm was developed to induce steady-state movement-related rhythms (SSMRR).
    • A comprehensive evaluation was conducted with 65 BCI-naïve participants to assess the performance of the rhythmic MI paradigm.

    Main Results:

    • The rhythmic MI paradigm achieved a 4-class online decoding accuracy of 78.88%±14.80% and nearly 90% binary offline accuracy.
    • Inefficiency rates were reduced to below 10%, and SMR modulation improved, decreasing the inefficiency rate from 50.77% to 23.08%.
    • Phase consistency was validated as a neurophysiological predictor for SSMRR-based decoding, showing potential for cross-subject generalization.

    Conclusions:

    • Rhythmic MI facilitates noninvasive BCIs with high decoding accuracy and low inefficiency.
    • This approach offers significant advancements for human-machine interaction and clinical applications like neurorehabilitation.
