Abstract

In motor imagery based Brain-Computer Interface (MI-BCI), subjects should be trained to learn how to modulate the rhythm of EEG for a long time. In previous works, more researchers focused on adaptive BCI system and a few works studied neurofeedback-based subjects training. To achieve high training performance, system self-adaption and subjects training were considered simultaneously in recent works. In this work, we present a co-adaptive training paradigm which includes subjects training and BCI system training. For subjects training, we present a neurofeedback-based training paradigm applying the strength information of motor imagery. In system training, the classifier model is run-by-run updated by selecting good features from EEG data of several previous runs. The online and offline analysis demonstrate that the proposed training paradigm can achieve a better training performance than normal training paradigm.
