Abstract

A brain-computer interface (BCI) enables users to communicate through a computer using only their brain signals, by extracting brain signal features containing information representative of the user's intent, and can be used in a wide variety of areas such as entertainment, rehabilitation, or assistive technologies. In this paper, two novel normalization methods are assessed with the aim of improving the quality of the extracted features: Baseline-Corrected canonical correlation analysis (BC-CCA), and Scaled CCA. Both methods are found to be able to improve classification accuracy in conditions using frequencies with a large range, whilst BC-CCA is the superior of the two, improving SSVEP detection accuracy by as much as 9.22%.
