Support vector EEG classification in the Fourier and time-frequency correlation domains

We use support vector machines (SVM) for classifying EEG signals corresponding to imagined motor movements. The parameters of an SVM Kernel are optimized for minimizing a theoretical error bound. Fourier features and correlative time-frequency based features are extracted from EEG signals and compared with respect to their discriminatory power.
