Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study is to develop a brain machine interface (BMI) to support communication from oscillatory brain activity and conversation between residents in daily-life environment. In order to achieve this purpose, I need to record brain activity by using wearable brain measurement device and human behavior including daily actions and conversation. Based on these information, I developed real-environment BMI which serve proper situation for user's request. In addition, I developed methodology to extract spatial-temporal patterns from brain activity which contains low information due to small amount of sensors.
