Abstract:
The classification method of motor imagery based on sample entropy(SampEn) of electroencephalogram(EEG) is proposed.The SampEn of EEG in primary sensorimotor area and its dynamic properties during left-right hand motor imagination are analyzed.Experiment results show that SampEn can reflect the EEG pattern changes of left-right hand motor imageries and have clear physiological explanation.Fisher LDA(Linear Discriminant Analysis) is used to dynamically classify the left-right hand movement imageries based on SampEn features,and an average maximum classification accuracy of 87.8% is obtained.Finally,a fast algorithm of SampEn with minimum computation cost and high speed is introduced,which can meet the requirements of real-time brain-computer interface(BCI) system.
