Neuromuscular electrical stimulation induced brain patterns to decode motor imagery

Regardless of the paradigm used to implement a brain–computer interface (BCI), all systems suffer from BCI-inefficiency. In the case of patients the inefficiency can be high. Some solutions have been proposed to overcome this problem, however they have not been completely successful yet. EEG from 10 healthy users was recorded during neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) of hands and feet and during motor imagery (MI) of the same limbs....
