    Algıda gecikme ve kısa-ömürlü senkronizasyon temelli yeni bir hayali motor aktivite tanıma yaklaşımı
    (IEEE, 2023) Olcay, B. Orkan; Karaçalı, Bilge
    This study proposes a novel approach for investigating a brain-computer interface that considers the temporal organization of brain activity, explicitly accounting for perception latency. To this end, we aligned the onset of task periods with the concurrence of left parietal and parieto-occipital electrodes to obtain the timings of perception latencies. Then, activity-specific synchronization timings between channel pairs were calculated using the time-aligned task periods. The perception latency and activity-specific synchronization timings were subsequently used for feature extraction and classification. The proposed approach achieved significantly better performance when comparing the proposed approach with the method that did not account for the perception latency

    On the Characterization of Cognitive Tasks Using Activity-Specific Short-Lived Synchronization Between Electroencephalography Channels
    (Elsevier, 2021) Olcay, B. Orkan; Özgören, Murat; Karaçalı, Bilge
    Accurate characterization of brain activity during a cognitive task is challenging due to the dynamically changing and the complex nature of the brain. The majority of the proposed approaches assume stationarity in brain activity and disregard the systematic timing organization among brain regions during cognitive tasks. In this study, we propose a novel cognitive activity recognition method that captures the activity-specific timing parameters from training data that elicits maximal average short-lived pairwise synchronization between electroencephalography signals. We evaluated the characterization power of the activity-specific timing parameter triplets in a motor imagery activity recognition framework. The activity-specific timing parameter triplets consist of latency of the maximally synchronized signal segments from activity onset Delta t, the time lag between maximally synchronized signal segments t, and the duration of the maximally synchronized signal segments w. We used cosine-based similarity, wavelet bi-coherence, phase-locking value, phase coherence value, linearized mutual information, and cross-correntropy to calculate the channel synchronizations at the specific timing parameters. Recognition performances as well as statistical analyses on both BCI Competition-III dataset IVa and PhysioNet Motor Movement/Imagery dataset, indicate that the interchannel short-lived synchronization calculated using activity-specific timing parameter triplets elicit significantly distinct synchronization profiles for different motor imagery tasks and can thus reliably be used for cognitive task recognition purposes.
