EEG-GAT: Graph Attention Networks for Classification of Electroencephalogram (EEG) Signals.

Graph neural networks (GNN) are an emerging framework in the deep learning community. In most GNN applications, the graph topology of data samples is provided in the dataset. Specifically, the graph shift operator (GSO), which could be adjacency, graph Laplacian, or their normalizations, is known a priori.

EEG-GNN: Graph Neural Networks for Classification of Electroencephalogram (EEG) Signals.

Convolutional neural networks (CNN) have been frequently used to extract subject-invariant features from electroencephalogram (EEG) for classification tasks. This approach holds the underlying assumption that electrodes are equidistant analogous to pixels of an image and hence fails to explore/exploit the complex functional neural connectivity between different electrode sites. We overcome this limitation by tailoring the concepts of convolution and pooling applied to 2D grid-like inputs for the functional network of electrode sites.

EEG-based trial-by-trial texture classification during active touch.

Trial-by-trial texture classification analysis and identifying salient texture related EEG features during active touch that are minimally influenced by movement type and frequency conditions are the main contributions of this work. A total of twelve healthy subjects were recruited. Each subject was instructed to use the fingertip of their dominant hand's index finger to rub or tap three textured surfaces (smooth flat, medium rough, and rough) with three levels of movement frequency (approximately 2, 1 and 0.
