EEG & BCI related project
This repo includes multiple distinct project.
BCI 2a
4-class motor imagery
What I did and/or learned
- Added comments as I read and tried to understand the (very) complicated signal processing
- Tested my ensemble of ML models with and without PCA
- I keep only 2% of the original data and still got extremely competitive results.
- without PCA (all data), I outperformed the authors’ Accuracy: 87.9% vs {86.8%, 85%}, Used a
EnsembleVoteClassifier
MNIST Brain
Mindbigdata, the “MNIST” of Brain Digits; Given the brain signal(s) of 2 seconds each, captured with the stimulus of seeing a digit (from 0 to 9) and thinking about it, determine what the digit is. Offical site
Discontinuation of work on this project
I really wanted to get this working, I wanted to achieve at least 25% accuracy. Unfortunately I have not scene any team or paper achieve more then about 12.5% accuracy. I’m not sure if its even possible to do better.
- I did learn a lot about Digital signal processing and EEG data. I one attempt, as I recall, I only keep 52hz & 55hz data… a lot better the idiotic approach of blindly throwing LSTMs at the problem.
-
I also learned how to make Bidirectional LSTMs & ConVLSTMs, and combined the two
Bidirectional(ConVLSTMs(..)) - My learning outcome was an increased understanding of sequential models, which I applied to CMPT 419, in which I co-authored “Predicting the S&P 500 with LTMs and GloVe”. Poster
Epileptic Seizure Recognition (EEG)
This dataset is a pre-processed and re-structured/reshaped version of a very commonly used dataset featuring epileptic seizure detection.
The point of this project was
- Give a sanity test where I was faces with marginal results after 15 hours of attempting Mindbigdata, the “MNIST” of Brain Digits
- There was massive code reuse, I just wanted to see if my 3D dataset building and LSTM model was working as intended

Research Interests: Applications of Qualitative Analytics in Human behavior
…and Agent behavior, however, that’s just sci-fi… for now. This is useful for side-channel attacks on reinforcement learners
