Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 6Transfer Learning for P300 Brain-Computer Interfaces by Joint Alignment of Feature Vectors(IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2023-10) Altindis, Fatih; Banerjee, Antara; Phlypo, Ronald; Yilmaz, Bulent; Congedo, MarcoThis article presents a new transfer learning method named group learning, that jointly aligns multiple domains (many-to-many) and an extension named fast alignment that aligns any further domain to previously aligned group of domains (many-to-one). The proposed group alignment algorithm (GALIA) is evaluated on brain-computer interface (BCI) data and optimal hyper-parameter values of the algorithm are studied for classification performance and computational cost. Six publicly available P300 databases comprising 333 sessions from 177 subjects are used. As compared to the conventional subject-specific train/test pipeline, both group learning and fast alignment significantly improve the classification accuracy except for the database with clinical subjects (average improvement: 2.12 +/- 1.88%). GALIA utilizes cyclic approximate joint diagonalization (AJD) to find a set of linear transformations, one for each domain, jointly aligning the feature vectors of all domains. Group learning achieves a many-to-many transfer learning without compromising the classification performance on non-clinical BCI data. Fast alignment further extends the group learning for any unseen domains, allowing a many-to-one transfer learning with the same properties. The former method creates a single machine learning model using data from previous subjects and/or sessions, whereas the latter exploits the trained model for an unseen domain requiring no further training of the classifier.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Prediction of Preference and Effect of Music on Preference: A Preliminary Study on Electroencephalography from Young Women(Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2019-03-01) Yilmaz, Bulent; Gazeloglu, Cengiz; Altindis, FatihNeuromarketing is the application of the neuroscientific approaches to analyze and understand economically relevant behavior. In this study, the effect of loud and rhythmic music in a sample neuromarketing setup is investigated. The second aim was to develop an approach in the prediction of preference using only brain signals. In this work, 19-channel EEG signals were recorded and two experimental paradigms were implemented: no music/silence and rhythmic, loud music using a headphone, while viewing women shoes. For each 10-sec epoch, normalized power spectral density (PSD) of EEG data for six frequency bands was estimated using the Burg method. The effect of music was investigated by comparing the mean differences between music and no music groups using independent two-sample t-test. In the preference prediction part sequential forward selection, k-nearest neighbors (k-NN) and the support vector machines (SVM), and 5-fold cross-validation approaches were used. It is found that music did not affect like decision in any of the power bands, on the contrary, music affected dislike decisions for all bands with no exceptions. Furthermore, the accuracies obtained in preference prediction study were between 77.5 and 82.5% for k-NN and SVM techniques. The results of the study showed the feasibility of using EEG signals in the investigation of the music effect on purchasing behavior and the prediction of preference of an individual.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Object Weight Perception in Motor Imagery Using Fourier-Based Synchrosqueezing Transform and Regularized Common Spatial Patterns(IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2024) Karakullukcu, Nedime; Altindis, Fatih; Yilmaz, BulentThis study addresses the challenge faced by individuals with upper-limb prostheses in regulating grip force and adapting movements to different object weights. Despite limited exploration, this research pioneers the use of EEG to estimate object weight perception in the context of upper-limb prostheses. Investigating neural correlates in this population provides valuable insights and aids the development of neurofeedback-based strategies for weight perception. Our objective is to identify EEG features predicting the weight perception of held objects. Employing Fourier-based synchrosqueezing transform (FSST) and regularized Common Spatial Patterns (CSP) features, we classify motor imagery waves representing three weight categories (light, medium, heavy). Subjects perform actual motor tasks before imagery sessions, and our approach integrates EEG features of both movements to train subject-specific machine learning models. Results reveal that FSST- singular value decomposition (SVD) features for medium and heavy objects are most distinctive. Achieving up to 90% accuracy, spatial features demonstrate effective classification of motor imagery for different weights. Unlike weight prediction studies, our focus is on visual perception and imagination of object weights, enhancing prosthetic hand system preconditioning. Binary classification surpasses 70% accuracy in predicting object weights, uniquely utilizing actual movement data for CSP algorithm regularization coefficient estimation.
