Mental imagery-based brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) allow to interact with the external environment by naturally bypassing the musculoskeletal system. Making BCIs efficient and accurate is paramount to improve the reliability of real-life…
Martinovic et al. proposed a Brain-Computer-Interface (BCI) -based attack in which an adversary is able to infer private information about a user, such as their bank or area-of-living, by analyzing the user's brain activities. However, a…
Sleep has a significant role to maintain our health. However, people have struggled with sleep induction because of noise, emotion, and complicated thoughts. We hypothesized that there was more effective auditory stimulation to induce sleep…
Large Language Models (LLMs) often exhibit \textit{hallucinations}, generating factually incorrect or semantically irrelevant content in response to prompts. Chain-of-Thought (CoT) prompting can mitigate hallucinations by encouraging…
Purpose: Preliminarily evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of using meditative virtual reality (VR) to improve the hospital experience of intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Methods: Effects of VR were examined in a non-randomized,…
The inter/intra-subject variability of electroencephalography (EEG) makes the practical use of the brain-computer interface (BCI) difficult. In general, the BCI system requires a calibration procedure to tune the model every time the system…
Developing a Brain-Computer Interface~(BCI) for seizure prediction can help epileptic patients have a better quality of life. However, there are many difficulties and challenges in developing such a system as a real-life support for…
Could simple organisms such as slime mould approximate LI without recourse to neural tissue? We describe a model whereby LI can emerge without explicit inhibitory wiring, using only bulk transport effects. We use a multi-agent model of…
Humans can fluidly adapt their interest in complex environments in ways that machines cannot. Here, we lay the groundwork for a real-world system that passively monitors and merges neural correlates of visual interest across team members…
Dementia with Lewy bodies is the second most common type of neurodegenerative dementia, and identification at the prodromal stage$-$i.e., mild cognitive impairment due to Lewy bodies (MCI-LB)$-$is important for providing appropriate care.…
Brain-computer interface (BCI) technology establishes a direct communication pathway between the brain and external devices. Current visual BCI systems suffer from insufficient information transfer rates (ITRs) for practical use. Spatial…
Advancements in non-invasive electroencephalogram (EEG)-based Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) technology have enabled communication through brain activity, offering significant potential for individuals with motor impairments. Existing…
Recently developed large language models have achieved remarkable success in generating fluent and coherent text. However, these models often tend to 'hallucinate' which critically hampers their reliability. In this work, we address this…
We study the performance of brain computer interface (BCI) system in a virtual reality (VR) environment and compare it to 2D regular displays. First, we design a headset that consists of three components: a wearable electroencephalography…
In the intact brain, neural activity can be recorded using sensing electrodes and manipulated using light stimulation. Silicon probes with integrated electrodes and micro-LEDs enable the detection and control of neural activity using a…
Traditional sleep staging categorizes sleep and wakefulness into five coarse-grained classes, overlooking subtle variations within each stage. It provides limited information about the duration of arousal and may hinder research on sleep…
Sleep deprivation is a public health concern that significantly impacts one's well-being and performance. Sleep is an intimate experience, and state-of-the-art sleep monitoring solutions are highly-personalized to individual users. With a…
AI-based neural decoding reconstructs visual perception by leveraging generative models to map brain activity, measured through functional MRI (fMRI), into latent hierarchical representations. Traditionally, ridge linear models transform…
In this project, and through an understanding of neuronal system communication, A novel model serves as an assistive technology for locked-in people suffering from Motor neuronal disease (MND) is proposed. Work was done upon the potential…
Lateral Inhibition (LI) phenomena occur in a wide range of sensory modalities and are most famously described in the human visual system. In LI the activity of a stimulated neuron is itself excited and suppresses the activity of its local…
