Artificial Intelligence Applications for Brain-Computer Interfaces

Artificial Intelligence Applications for Brain-Computer Interfaces focuses on the advancements, challenges, and prospects of future technologies involving noninvasive brain-computer interfaces (BCIs). It includes the processing and analysis of multimodal signals, integrated computation-acquisition devices, and implantable neuro techniques.

This book not only provides cross-disciplinary research in BCI but also presents divergent applications on telerehabilitation, emotion recognition, neuro-rehabilitation, cognitive workload assessments, and ambient assisted living solutions.

In 15 chapters, this book describes how BCIs connect the brain with external devices like computers and electronic gadgets. It analyzes the neural signals from the brain to obtain insights from the brain patterns using multiple noninvasive wearable sensors. It gives insight into how sensor outcomes are processed through machine-intelligent models to draw inferences. Each chapter starts with the importance, problem statement, and motivation. A description of the proposed methodology is provided, and related works are also presented.

Each chapter can be read independently, and therefore, the book is a valuable resource for researchers, health professionals, postgraduate students, postdoc researchers, and academicians in the fields of BCI, prosthesis, computer vision, and mental state estimation, and all those who wish to broaden their knowledge in the allied field.
