Abstract
En 中文
Training-based algorithms significantly outperform training-free methods in terms of recognition performance for steady-state visual-evoked potential (SSVEP)-based brain–computer Interfaces (BCIs). However, collecting training data requires calibration experiments that are effort-intensive and often costly. These calibration demands limit the practicality of BCI, as users (and even system operators) may experience fatigue or lose interest in continued use. Transfer learning (TL) offers an effective solution, but it typically relies on either a certain amount of target domain data or extensive source domain data. To address this limitation, we introduce the concept of cross-dataset TL in SSVEP for the first time to extract transfer knowledge from other datasets. During this process, we identified a data mismatch problem that severely compromises the generalizability of transfer knowledge. To overcome this challenge, we propose a TL-SSVEP decoding algorithm calibrated with single-trial data (TL-CSTD). Specifically, we use 2 s of 8 Hz single-trial calibration data from the target domain to obtain matched transfer templates from the source domain. These templates are then corrected to extract holistic and single-period transfer knowledge, which are subsequently employed to construct an efficient TL-SSVEP decoding model for the target subject. Experimental results on three large SSVEP datasets demonstrate that TL-CSTD effectively addresses the data mismatch problem and achieves excellent SSVEP recognition performance using only 2 s of single-trial calibration data, showing its significant application potential and practicality.
