Abstract

In this study, we attempted to improve brain-computer interface (BCI) systems by means of auditory stream segregation in which alternately presented tones are perceived as sequences of various different tones (streams). A 3-class BCI using three tone sequences, which were perceived as three different tone streams, was investigated and evaluated. Each presented musical tone was generated by a software synthesizer. Eleven subjects took part in the experiment. Stimuli were presented to each user’s right ear. Subjects were requested to attend to one of three streams and to count the number of target stimuli in the attended stream. In addition, 64-channel electroencephalogram (EEG) and two-channel electrooculogram (EOG) signals were recorded from participants with a sampling frequency of 1000 Hz. The measured EEG data were classified based on Riemannian geometry to detect the object of the subject’s selective attention. P300 activity was elicited by the target stimuli in the segregated tone streams. In five out of eleven subjects, P300 activity was elicited only by the target stimuli included in the attended stream. In a 10-fold cross validation test, a classification accuracy over 80% for five subjects and over 75% for nine subjects was achieved. For subjects whose accuracy was lower than 75%, either the P300 was also elicited for nonattended streams or the amplitude of P300 was small. It was concluded that the number of selected BCI systems based on auditory stream segregation can be increased to three classes, and these classes can be detected by a single ear without the aid of any visual modality.

Methodology

Musical tones generated by a digital auditory workstation were used as auditory stimuli. Piano tones from a MIDI sound source were presented using a digital signal processor and headphones to participants’ right ear only. Three tone streams were created using auditory stream segregation, each consisting of standard (90% probability) and deviant (10% probability) tones. The duration of each tone was 150 ms with stimulus onset asynchrony of 180 ms. The 64-channel EEG and 2-channel EOG signals were recorded at 1000 Hz. Each experiment consisted of two task blocks with three runs each (5 minutes per run). Subjects counted target stimuli in different streams across runs. Data analysis involved bandpass filtering (0.1-40 Hz for ERP analysis, 1-40 Hz for classification), baseline correction, artifact rejection (±100μV for EEG, ±500μV for EOG), xDAWN spatial filtering, and classification using Riemannian geometry with covariance matrices and logistic regression. Performance was evaluated using 10-fold cross validation with accuracy and Matthews correlation coefficient (MCC) metrics.
