Laboratory for Advanced Brain Signal Processing
The laboratory for Advanced Brain Signal Processing is focused on developing novel and state of the art methods to extract, detect, recognize, find functional connectivity, and classify brain signals and to gain the insights building intelligent feature extraction systems. Central research interest: * Multi-modal multi-sensory multidimensional brain data analysis , especially EEG/MEG, fMRI data (Human Perception: sound, vision, odors, taste, tactile), * Bio-inspired signal processing - Blind Sources Separation: (Sparse Component Analysis-SCA, Independent Component Analysis-ICA, Morphological Component Analysis -MCA, Nonnegative Matrix Factorization-NMF, Nonnegative Tensor Factorization-NTF, Time-Frequency Morohological Component Analyzer-TFCA), * Brain Computer Interface (BCI) / Human Computer Interaction (HCI). Development and investigation of models, architectures (structures) and associated learning algorithms of artificial neural systems. We develop novel reconstruction algorithms and implementations for bio-medical imaging applications that can greatly enhance our ability to monitor neuroimage structures and processes. The imaging systems of our interests include existing modalities such as EEG, fMRI, and NIRS as well as emerging technologies.
