Journal Article
Podmore, J., Breckon, T., Aznan, N., & Connolly, J. (2019). On the Relative Contribution of Deep Convolutional Neural Networks for SSVEP-based Bio-Signal Decoding in BCI Speller Applications. IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, 27(4), 611-618. https://doi.org/10.1109/tnsre.2019.2904791

Brain-computer interfaces (BCI) harnessing Steady State Visual Evoked Potentials (SSVEP) manipulate the frequency and phase of visual stimuli to generate predictable oscillations in neural activity. For BCI spellers, oscillations are matched with alp...

On the Classification of SSVEP-Based Dry-EEG Signals via Convolutional Neural Networks (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Aznan, N., Bonner, S., Connolly, J., Al Moubayed, N., & Breckon, T. (2018, October). On the Classification of SSVEP-Based Dry-EEG Signals via Convolutional Neural Networks. Presented at 2018 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics (SMC2018), Miyazaki, Japan

Electroencephalography (EEG) is a common signal acquisition approach employed for Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) research. Nevertheless, the majority of EEG acquisition devices rely on the cumbersome application of conductive gel (so-called wet-EEG)...
