摘要
This paper investigates the use of Permutation Entropy (PE) as a feature for mental task classification for a Brain-Computer Interface system. PE is a recently introduced measure which quantifies signal complexity by measuring the departure of a time series from a random one. More regular signals are characterized by lower PE values. Here, PE is utilized to characterize signals from electroencephalograms of 3 subjects performing 4 motor imagery tasks, which are then classified using a Support Vector Machine. Even though it is possible to obtain 100% single-trial classification accuracy, this is very much subject-dependent.
