This study proposes a new method to learn from limited calibration EEG trials and evaluates a novel adaptive data-driven spatial filtering approach for enhancing SSVEP detection. By incorporating temporal information and adopting a multitask learning approach, the proposed method outperforms competing methods in publicly available benchmark datasets.
Steady-State Visual Evoked Potential (SSVEP) recognition methods use a subject's calibration data to differentiate between brain responses, hence, providing the SSVEP-based brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) with high performance. However, they require sufficient calibration EEG trials to achieve that. This study develops a new method to learn from limited calibration EEG trials, and it proposes and evaluates a novel adaptive data-driven spatial filtering approach for enhancing SSVEP detection. The spatial filter learned from each stimulus utilizes temporal information from the corresponding EEG trials. To introduce the temporal information into the overall procedure, a multitask learning approach, based on the Bayesian framework, is adopted. The performance of the proposed method was evaluated into two publicly available benchmark datasets, and the results demonstrated that our method outperformed competing methods by a significant margin.
