Popis: Non-invasive brain-computer interfaces (BCI) hold great promise in the field of neurorehabilitation. They are easy to use and do not require surgery, particularly in the area of motor imagery electroencephalography (EEG). However, motor imagery EEG signals often have a low signal-to-noise ratio and limited spatial and temporal resolution. Traditional deep neural networks typically only focus on the spatial and temporal features of EEG, resulting in relatively low decoding and accuracy rates for motor imagery tasks. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a 3D Convolutional Neural Network (P-3DCNN) decoding method that jointly learns spatial-frequency feature maps from the frequency and spatial domains of the EEG signals. First, the Welch method is used to calculate the frequency band power spectrum of the EEG, and a 2D matrix representing the spatial topology distribution of the electrodes is constructed. These spatial-frequency representations are then generated through cubic interpolation of the temporal EEG data. Next, the paper designs a 3DCNN network with 1D and 2D convolutional layers in series to optimize the convolutional kernel parameters and effectively learn the spatial-frequency features of the EEG. Batch normalization and dropout are also applied to improve the training speed and classification performance of the network. Finally, through experiments, the proposed method is compared to various classic machine learning and deep learning techniques. The results show an average decoding accuracy rate of 86.69%, surpassing other advanced networks. This demonstrates the effectiveness of our approach in decoding motor imagery EEG and offers valuable insights for the development of BCI.
