ABSTRACT

Multimodal neurofeedback estimates brain activity using information acquired with more than one neurosignal measurement technology. In this paper we describe how to set up and use a hybrid platform based on simultaneous electroencephalography (EEG) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), then we illustrate how to use it for conducting bimodal neurofeedback experiments. The paper is intended for those willing to build a multimodal neurofeedback system, to guide them through the different steps of the design, setup, and experimental applications, and help them choose a suitable hardware and software configuration. Furthermore, it reports practical information from bimodal neurofeedback experiments conducted in our lab. The platform presented here has a modular parallel processing architecture that promotes real-time signal processing performance and simple future addition and/or replacement of processing modules. Various unimodal and bimodal neurofeedback experiments conducted in our lab showed high performance and accuracy. Currently, the platform is able to provide neurofeedback based on electroencephalography and functional magnetic resonance imaging, but the architecture and the working principles described here are valid for any other combination of two or more real-time brain activity measurement technologies.

ABSTRACT

Consequences of eye movements are one of the main interferences that distort the brain EEG recordings. In this paper, a multi-modal approach is used to estimate the ocular artifacts in the EEG: both vertical and horizontal eye movement signals recorded by an eye tracker are used as a reference to denoise the EEG. A Gaussian process, i.e. a second order statistics method, is assumed to model the link between the eye tracker signals and the EEG signals. The proposed method is thus a non-linear extension of the well-known adaptive filtering and can be applied with a single EEG signal contrary to independent component analysis (ICA) which is extensively used. The results show the applicability and the efficiency of this model on the ocular artifact removal.

ABSTRACT

Quasi-periodic signals can be modeled by their second order statistics as Gaussian process. This work presents a non-parametric method to model such signals. ECG, as a quasi-periodic signal, can also be modeled by such method which can help to extract the fetal ECG from the maternal ECG signal, using a single source abdominal channel. The prior information on the signal shape, and on the maternal and fetal RR interval, helps to better estimate the parameters while applying the Bayesian principles. The values of the parameters of the method, among which the R-peak instants, are accurately estimated using the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm. This estimation provides very precise values for the R-peaks, so that they can be located even between the existing time samples.
