Functional connectivity predicts MI-based BCI learning
Abstract
Non-invasive Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs) can exploit the ability of subjects to voluntary modulate their brain activity through mental imagery. Despite its clinical applications, controlling a BCI appears to be a learned skill that requires several weeks to reach relatively high-performance in control, without being sufficient for 15 to 30 % of the users. This gap has motivated a deeper understanding of mechanisms associated with motor imagery (MI) tasks. Here, we investigated dynamical changes in terms of cortical activations and network recruitment. We hypothesized that the associated characteristics would be able to predict the success of learning.
