Abstract

Proposes a new probabilistic neural network (NN) that can estimate the a-posteriori probability for a pattern classification problem. The structure of the proposed network is based on a statistical model composed by a mixture of log-linearized Gaussian components. However, the forward calculation and the backward learning rule can be defined in the same manner as the error backpropagation NN. In this paper, the proposed network is applied to the electroencephalogram (EEG) pattern classification problem. In the experiments described, two types of a photic stimulation, which are caused by eye opening/closing and artificial light, are used to collect the data to be classified. It is shown that the EEG signals can be classified successfully and that the classification rates change depending on the amount of training data and the dimension of the feature vectors
