    Parameter Investigation of Topological Data Analysis for EEG Signals
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2021-01) Altindis, Fatih; Yilmaz, Bulent; Borisenok, Sergey; Icoz, Kutay
    Topological data analysis (TDA) methods have become appealing in EEG signal processing, because they may help the scientists explore new features of complex and large amount of data by simplifying the process from a geometrical perspective. Time delay embedding is a common approach to embed EEG signals into the state space. Parameters of this embedding method are variable and the structure of the state space can be entirely different depending on their selection. Additionally, extracted persistent homologies of the state spaces depend on filtration level and the number of points used. In this study, we showed how to adapt false nearest neighbor (FNN) test to find out the suitable/optimal time embedding parameters (i.e., time delay and embedding dimension) for EEG signals, and compared their effects on different types of artefacts and motor intention waves that are commonly used in brain-computer interfaces. We extracted and compared persistent homologies of state spaces that were reconstructed with four different sets of parameters. Later, the effect of filtration level on extracted persistent homologies was compared, and statistical significance levels were computed between leftand right-hand movement imaginations. Finally, computational cost of the discussed methods was found, and the adaptability of this method to a real-time application was evaluated. We demonstrated that the discussed parameters of the TDA approach were highly crucial to extract true topological features of the EEG signals, and the adapted testing approaches depicted the applicability of this approach on real-time analysis of EEG signals.

    Distinguishing Resting State From Motor Imagery Swallowing Using EEG and Deep Learning Models
    (IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2024) Aslan, Sevgi Gokce; Yilmaz, Bulent
    The primary aim of this study was to assess the classification performance of deep learning models in distinguishing between resting state and motor imagery swallowing, utilizing various preprocessing and data visualization techniques applied to electroencephalography (EEG) data. In this study, we performed experiments using four distinct paradigms such as natural swallowing, induced saliva swallowing, induced water swallowing, and induced tongue protrusion on 30 right-handed individuals (aged 18 to 56). We utilized a 16-channel wearable EEG headset. We thoroughly investigated the impact of different preprocessing methods (Independent Component Analysis, Empirical Mode Decomposition, bandpass filtering) and visualization techniques (spectrograms, scalograms) on the classification performance of multichannel EEG signals. Additionally, we explored the utilization and potential contributions of deep learning models, particularly Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), in EEG-based classification processes. The novelty of this study lies in its comprehensive examination of the potential of deep learning models, specifically in distinguishing between resting state and motor imagery swallowing processes, using a diverse combination of EEG signal preprocessing and visualization techniques. The results showed that it was possible to distinguish the resting state from the imagination of swallowing with 89.8% accuracy, especially using continuous wavelet transform (CWT) based scalograms. The findings of this study may provide significant contributions to the development of effective methods for the rehabilitation and treatment of swallowing difficulties based on motor imagery-based brain computer interfaces.
