Popis: | A low-cost Brain-Machine Interface (BMI) based on electroencephalography for lower-limb motor recovery of post-stroke patients is proposed here, which provides passive pedaling as feedback, when patients trigger a Mini-Motorized Exercise Bike (MMEB) by executing pedaling motor imagery (MI). This system was validated in an On-line phase by eight healthy subjects and two post-stroke patients, which felt a closed-loop commanding the MMEB due to the fast response of our BMI. It was developed using methods of low-computational cost, such as Riemannian geometry for feature extraction, Pair-Wise Feature Proximity (PWFP) for feature selection, and Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) for pedaling imagery recognition. The On-line phase was composed of two sessions, where each participant completed a total of 12 trials per session executing pedaling MI for triggering the MMEB. As a result, the MMEB was successfully triggered by healthy subjects for almost all trials (ACC up to 100%), while the two post-stroke patients, PS1 and PS2, achieved their best performance (ACC of 41.67% and 91.67%, respectively) in Session #2. These patients improved their latency (2.03 ± 0.42 s and 1.99 ± 0.35 s, respectively) when triggering the MMEB, and their performance suggests the hypothesis that our system may be used with chronic stroke patients for lower-limb recovery, providing neural relearning and enhancing neuroplasticity. |
