EEGLAB: an open source toolbox for analysis of single-trial EEG dynamics including independent component analysis.

THE DESIGN AND ANALYSIS OF EXPERIMENTS. By Oscar Kempthorne. New York, John Wiley and Sons, Inc., 1952. 631 pp. $8.50. This book by a teacher of statistics (as well as a consultant for \"experimenters\") is a comprehensive study of the philosophical background for the statistical design of experiment. It is necessary to have some facility with algebraic notation and manipulation to be able to use the volume intelligently. The problems are presented from the theoretical point of view, without such practical examples as would be helpful for those not acquainted with mathematics. The mathematical justification for the techniques is given. As a somewhat advanced treatment of the design and analysis of experiments, this volume will be interesting and helpful for many who approach statistics theoretically as well as practically. With emphasis on the \"why,\" and with description given broadly, the author relates the subject matter to the general theory of statistics and to the general problem of experimental inference.

I have developed "tennis elbow" from lugging this book around the past four weeks, but it is worth the pain, the effort, and the aspirin. It is also worth the (relatively speaking) bargain price. Including appendixes, this book contains 894 pages of text. The entire panorama of the neural sciences is surveyed and examined, and it is comprehensive in its scope, from genomes to social behaviors. The editors explicitly state that the book is designed as "an introductory text for students of biology, behavior, and medicine," but it is hard to imagine any audience, interested in any fragment of neuroscience at any level of sophistication, that would not enjoy this book. The editors have done a masterful job of weaving together the biologic, the behavioral, and the clinical sciences into a single tapestry in which everyone from the molecular biologist to the practicing psychiatrist can find and appreciate his or

Brain-computer interfaces for communication and control.

By the use of a brain-computer interface (BCI), it is possible for completely paralyzed patients, who have lost their ability to speak, to have a new possibility to communicate with their environment. The training with such a BCI system can be performed at the patient's home, if there is a responsible person present who is familiar with the system. This person has to adjust different parameters and to adapt the training individually to each patient. Since this function is usually taken over by the developers of the system, the number of patients who can be included in regular BCI training is restricted due to geographical distances. This paper describes the implementation of a telemonitoring system, which makes it possible for the developer to control and supervise the BCI training from his or her own place of work. First experiences with a patient living far away from the developer's lab are reported.

Implementation of a telemonitoring system for the control of an EEG-based brain-computer interface

The results of a self-paced Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) are presented which are based on the detection of senorimotor electroencephalogram rhythms during motor imagery. The participants were given the task of moving through a virtual model of the Austrian National Library by performing motor imagery. This work shows that five participants which were trained in a synchronous BCI could sucessfully perform the asynchronous experiment.

Self-paced exploration of the Austrian National Library through thought

In this paper we report on the navigation in a virtual environment by the output signal of an EEG-based Brain-Computer Interface (BCI). Such a BCI transforms bioelectrical brain signals, modified by mental activity into a control signal. At this time only 1-D or 2-D BCI feedbacks are used. The graphical possibilities of virtual reality (VR) should help to improve BCI-feedback presentations and create new paradigms, with the intention to obtain a better control of the BCI. In this study the subjects had to imagine left or right hand movements and thereby exploring a virtual conference room. With a left hand motor imagery the subject turned in the room to the left and vice versa. Three trained subjects reached 77% to 100% classification accuracy in the course of the experimental sessions.
