Assurance that the BCI systems and its associated procedures will not cause harm to or adverse effects on the user

Formal procedures aimed at protecting user safety.

The number of samples of a signal taken per unit time, typically measured in Hertz

Combining small amounts of labeled data with large amounts of unlabeled data to improve a model's generalization capabilities.

A specific type of transducer that detects or measures a physical quantity and converts it into an electrical signal.

n oscillation in electric or magnetic fields recorded over the sensorimotor cortex in specific frequency bands (typically 12-15 Hz).

The first stage of the BCI pipeline, which involves measuring the brain's raw physiological signals using a specific sensor modality.[3, 45] This process includes amplifying the very weak neural signals to a usable level, converting them from analog to digital form, and transmitting them to a computer for processing.[25]

The transformation, extraction, and classification of brain signals to interpret the user's intent and control an external device.

A measure quantifying the strength of the neural signal relative to background noise.

Nuclear imaging method detecting gamma rays to provide 3D functional information of brain blood flow and activity.

Experimental design where all data is acquired from a subject within a single session.

Signal acquisition from individual neurons via microelectrodes.

An evoked potential in response to a tactile or proprioceptive stimulus.

Reconstruction of neural signal origins using inverse modeling techniques.

Computing the physical layout or spatial distribution of brain activity as measured by sensors

Features that reflect the distribution or pattern of neural activity across multiple electrodes or brain regions.

Technique to enhance or isolate neural signals from specific brain regions, such as Laplacian or CSP filters.

EEG feature evaluating the functional connectivity between two brain regions by measuring frequency synchronization.

A BCI system that captures and decodes neural signals related to user thoughts intended to be articulated but which cannot be vocalized, translating them into text or synthetic speech.

A measure of the average firing rate of a neuron in a specific time interval
