【 摘 要 】

In order to improve the performance of motor imagery brain–computer interface (BCI) based on deep learning algorithm, here, the authors propose an electrode channel combination method. Although motor imagery electro-encephalography (EEG) signals which contain different electrode channels on the scalp surface have an effect on the classification performance, the effect of different electrode channel combinations has not been systematically explored. With the two deep learning models the authors constructed, the authors list some different electrode channel combinations to classify the left fist and right fist motor imagery EEG signals. The results show that the more the number of channels in these combinations, the higher the classification accuracy. However, when the number of channels exceeds 11, the classification accuracy increases slowly, and the classification effect is rarely improved. Therefore, the authors obtain an optimal electrode channel combination to use the electrode channels efficiently and to improve the performance of motor imagery BCI based on deep learning algorithms.
