Abstract
This study introduces a novel, high accuracy, calibration less spatial filter for reliable steady-state visual evoked potential (SSVEP) extraction from noisy electroencephalogram (EEG) data. The proposed method, exactly periodic subspace decomposition (EPSD), utilises the periodic properties of the SSVEP components to achieve a robust spatial filter for SSVEP extraction. It tries to extract the SSVEP components by projecting the EEG data onto a subspace where only the target signal components are retained. The performance of the method was tested on an SSVEP dataset obtained from ten subjects and compared with common SSVEP spatial filtering and detection techniques. The results obtained from the study shows that EPSD consistently provides a significant improvement in detection performance than other SSVEP spatial filters used in brain-computer interface (BCI) applications.

Advancing the detection of steady-state visual evoked potentials in brain–computer interfaces

TL;DR: A new detection method (CVARS) is proposed that combines the power of the canonical variates and that of the autoregressive spectral analysis in estimating the signal and noise power levels and outperforms other state-of-the-art detection methods when used in an unsupervised fashion.

A Unified Theory of Union of Subspaces Representations for Period Estimation

TL;DR: All union-of-subspace techniques for period estimation are first unified under one general framework, and it will be seen that the Euler totient function from number theory plays an important role in providing the answers to all such questions.

TL;DR: This study proposes for the first time a training-free double-partial least-squares (D-PLS) model for steady-state visual evoked potential (SSVEP) detection that consists of double-layer PLS, a PLS spatial filter, and a P LS feature extractor that achieved better performance than current feature extraction methods.

Design Principles and Dynamic Front End Reconfiguration for Low Noise EEG Acquisition With Finger Based Dry Electrodes

TL;DR: This work investigates a popular dry electrode design based on a number of resistive `finger' shaped contacts and shows that sparser arrangements of fingers are more robust to varying use cases and are more effective at penetrating through hair on the scalp.
