Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Common spatial pattern (CSP) is one of the most successful feature extraction algorithms for brain-computer interfaces (BCIs). It aims to find spatial filters that maximize the projected variance ratio between the covariance matrices of the multichannel electroencephalography (EEG) signals corresponding to two mental tasks, which can be formulated as a generalized eigenvalue problem (GEP). However, it is challenging in principle to impose additional regularization onto the CSP to obtain structural solutions (e.g., sparse CSP) due to the intrinsic nonconvexity and invariance property of GEPs. This article reformulates the CSP as a constrained minimization problem and establishes the equivalence of the reformulated and the original CSPs. An efficient algorithm is proposed to solve this optimization problem by alternately performing singular value decomposition (SVD) and least squares. Under this new formulation, various regularization techniques for linear regression can then be easily implemented to regularize the CSPs for different learning paradigms, such as the sparse CSP, the transfer CSP, and the multisubject CSP. Evaluations on three BCI competition datasets show that the regularized CSP algorithms outperform other baselines, especially for the high-dimensional small training set. The extensive results validate the efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed CSP formulation in different learning contexts.
