Abstract

Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) can help individuals with central nervous system (CNS) deficits recover lost function by enabling new communication channels (Wolpaw et al. 2002; Hochberg et al. 2012; Collinger et al. 2013) or by inducing and guiding adaptive plasticity for rehabilitation (Daly and Sitaram 2012; Mukaino et al. 2014).
