Learning Outcomes

Students know the essential concepts of Brain-Computer Interfacing (BCI). They are capable of applying methods of biomedical signal processing and single-trial classification to neural data. They can provide an interpretation of the outcome of their analysis in a statistical as well as in a neurophysiological manner.

Content

Approaches to Brain-Computer Interfacing (BCI); Event-related potentials (ERPs); Spatial filters; Multivariate analysis of brain signals; Single-trial classification of spatio-temporal features; Regularized discriminant analysis (RDA); The linear model (forward and backward) of EEG; Interpretation of spatial patterns and filters; Modulation of spontaneous brain rhythms; Event-related synchronization and desynchronization (ERS, ERD); Common spatial pattern (CSP) Analysis; Classification of spatio-spectral features; Signal decomposistion methods; Supervised and unsupervised methods of adaptation in the classification of EEG; Experimental design

Description of Teaching and Learning Methods

This integrated course consists of a lecture (mainly teacher-centred, with some period of group work) and assignments. The latter require independently solving programming exercises and working on complex tasks under guidance of a tutor. --- Die Integrierte Lehrveranstaltung besteht aus einem Vorlesungsteil (Frontalunterricht vor allen Teilnehmern zur Vermittlung des Stoffes; einige Phasen Gruppenarbeit) und einem Anteil praktischer Arbeit. Letztere besteht aus dem selbstständigen Bearbeiten von Übungsaufgaben und der Bearbeitung einer komplexeren Fragestellung unter Anleitung eines Assistenten.

Requirements for participation and examination

Desirable prerequisites for participation in the courses:

* Required: programming skills; background in mathematics, in particular linear algebra and probability theory. * Helpful, but not obligatory: Basic knowledge in signal processing and machine learning.

Mandatory requirements for the module test application:

This module has no requirements.

Test description (Module completion)

The grade is determined according to § 47 (2) AllgStuPO with the grading system 2 of faculty IV. * Exercises: Concurrent to the lecture, there will be a tutorial in which eight assignment sheets have to be solved. These are devoted to practical EEG analysis (programming). * Written exams: In the first half and in the second half of the lecture, there will be written tests of 45 minutes each.

Duration of the Module

The following number of semesters is estimated for taking and completing the module:
1 Semester.

This module may be commenced in the following semesters:
Wintersemester.

Maximum Number of Participants
