Title
Bhattacharyya Distance-Based Transfer Learning For A Hybrid Eeg-Ftcd Brain-Computer Interface
Abstract
In this paper, we introduce a transfer learning approach for our novel hybrid brain-computer interface in which electroencephalography and functional transcranial Doppler ultrasound are used simultaneously to record brain electrical activity and cerebral blood velocity respectively due to flickering mental rotation and word generation tasks. We reduced each trial into a scalar score using Regularized Discriminant Analysis (RDA). For each individual, class conditional probabilistic distribution of each mental task was estimated using RDA scores of the trials corresponding to that mental task. Similarities between class conditional distributions across individuals were measured using Kullback-Leibler divergence, Bhattacharyya, and Hellinger distances. Classification task was performed using Quadratic Discriminant Analysis (QDA), Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA), and Support Vector Machines (SVM). We demonstrate that transfer learning can reduce calibration requirements up to %87.5. Moreover, it was found that QDA provides the most significant performance improvement compared to the case when no transfer learning is employed.
