Abstract

This paper presents an approach to classifying electroencephalogram (EEG) signals for brain–computer interfaces (BCI). To eliminate redundancy in high-dimensional EEG signals and reduce the coupling among different classes of EEG signals, we use principle component analysis and linear discriminant analysis to extract features that represent the raw signals. Next, we introduce the voting-based extreme learning machine to classify the features. Experiments performed on real-world data from the 2003 BCI competition indicate that our classification method outperforms state-of-the-art methods in speed and accuracy.
