Finding the Optimal Time Window for Increased Classification Accuracy during Motor Imagery

Motor imagery classification using electroencephalography is based on feature extraction over a length of time, and different configurations of settings can alter the performance of a classifier. Nevertheless, there is a lack of standardized settings for motor imagery classification. This work analyzes the effect of age on motor imagery training performance for two common spatial pattern-based classifier pipelines and various configurations of timing parameters, such as epochs, windows, and offsets. Results showed significant (p ≤ 0.01) inverse correlations between performance and feature quantity, as well as between performance and
