Motor Imagery Data Classification for BCI Application Using Wavelet Packet Feature Extraction

The noninvasive brain imaging modalities have provided us an extraordinary means for monitoring the working brain. Among these modalities, Electroencephalography (EEG) is the most widely used technique for measuring the brain signals under different tasks, due to its mobility, low cost, and high temporal resolution. In this paper we investigate the use of EEG signals in brain-computer interface (BCI) systems.
