An auditory modality brain computer interface (BCI) is a novel and interesting paradigm in neurotechnology applications. The paper presents a concept of auditory steady state responses (ASSR) utilization for the novel BCI paradigm. Two EEG feature extraction approaches based on a bandpass filtering and an AR spectrum estimation are tested together with two classification schemes in order to validate the proposed auditory BCI paradigm. The resulting good classification scores of users intentional choices, of attending or not to the presented stimuli, support the hypothesis of the ASSR stimuli validity for a solid BCI paradigm.

In the field of steady-state visual evoked potential (SSVEP), stimulus paradigms are regularly arranged or mimic the style of a keyboard with the same size. However, stimulation paradigms have important effects on the performance of SSVEP systems, which correlate with the electroencephalogram (EEG) signal amplitude and recognition accuracy. This paper provides MP dataset that was acquired using a 12-target BCI speller.

Motor imagery (MI) is an important brain-computer interface (BCI) paradigm. The traditional MI paradigm (imagining different limbs) limits the intuitive control of the outer devices, while fine MI paradigm (imagining different joint movements from the same limb) can control the mechanical arm without cognitive disconnection. However, the decoding performance of fine MI limits its application.

Brain-computer interface (BCI) based on the motor imagery paradigm typically utilizes multi-channel electroencephalogram (EEG) to ensure accurate capture of physiological phenomena. However, excessive channels often contain redundant information and noise, which can significantly degrade BCI performance. Although there have been numerous studies on EEG channel selection, most of them require manual feature extraction, and the extracted features are difficult to fully represent the effective information of EEG signals.

Objective: In the pursuit of refining P300-based brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), our research aims to propose a novel stimulus design focused on selective attention and task relevance to address the challenges of P300-based BCIs, including the necessity of repetitive stimulus presentations, accuracy improvement, user variability, and calibration demands.
Approach: In the oddball task for P300-based BCIs, we develop a stimulus design involving task-relevant dynamic stimuli implemented as finger-tapping to enhance the elicitation and consistency of event-related potentials (ERPs). We further improve the performance of P300-based BCIs by optimizing ERP feature extraction and classification in offline analyses.

In visual-imagery-based brain-computer interface (VI-BCI), there are problems of singleness of imagination task and insufficient description of feature information, which seriously hinder the development and application of VI-BCI technology in the field of restoring communication. In this paper, we design and optimize a multi-character classification scheme based on electroencephalogram (EEG) signals of visual imagery (VI), which is used to classify 29 characters including 26 lowercase English letters and three punctuation marks. Firstly, a new paradigm of randomly presenting characters and including preparation stage is designed to acquire EEG signals and construct a multi-character dataset, which can eliminate the influence between VI tasks.
