Three-dimensional convolutional neural network based on spatial-spectral feature pictures learning for decoding motor imagery electroencephalography signal
The brain-computer interface(BCI)based on motor imagery electroencephalography(EEG)shows great potential in neurorehabilitation due to its non-invasive nature and ease of use.However,motor imagery EEG signals have low signal-to-noise ratios and spatiotemporal resolutions,leading to low decoding recognition rates with traditional neural networks.To address this,this paper proposed a three-dimensional(3D)convolutional neural network(CNN)method that learns spatial-frequency feature maps,using Welch method to calculate the power spectrum of EEG frequency bands,converted time-series EEG into a brain topographical map with spatial-frequency information.A 3D network with one-dimensional and two-dimensional convolutional layers was designed to effectively learn these features.Comparative experiments demonstrated that the average decoding recognition rate reached 86.89%,outperforming traditional methods and validating the effectiveness of this approach in motor imagery EEG decoding.
