MACHINE LEARNING TECHNIQUES FOR BRAIN-COMPUTER INTERFACES

This review discusses machine learning methods and their application to Brain-Computer Interfacing. A particular focus is placed on feature selection. We also point out common flaws when validating machine learning methods in the context of BCI. Finally we provide a brief overview on the Berlin-Brain Computer Interface (BBCI).
