Topic: Machine Learning in Brain-Computer Interfaces
Abstract: A brain-computer interface (BCI) enables direct communication
between the brain and external devices. Electroencephalograms (EEGs)
used in BCIs are weak, easily contaminated by interference and noise,
non-stationary for the same subject, and varying across different
subjects and sessions. Thus, sophisticated machine learning approaches
are needed for accurate and reliable EEG decoding. Additionally,
adversarial security and privacy protection are also very important to
the broad applications of BCIs. This talk will introduce machine
learning algorithms for accurate, secure and privacy-preserving BCIs.
