METHOD, DEVICE AND DATABASE FOR RECONSTRUCTING INTENDED ACTIVITIES FROM NEURAL SIGNALS

摘要

The invention relates to a method for reconstructing intended activities from a first representation of neural signals which is indicative of an intended activity. For second representations, a degree of agreement between the first representation and each second representation from a plurality of predetermined second representations that are indicative of intended activities is determined on the basis of a predetermined agreement criterion, and a second representation of the neural signals is selected from the plurality of second representations on the basis of the degree of agreement. The selected second representation is the reconstructed intended activity. The invention further relates to a database for use in a method according to the invention and a signal processing device for reconstructing intended activities.

1. A method for reconstruction of intended activities from a first representation (R1) of neural signals (S) which is indicative of an intended activity, wherein
the first representation (R1) is generated using a predetermined method from the neural signals (S), for each second (Ri) from a plurality of predetermined second representations (RR), each of which being representative of a predetermined activity, wherein the plurality of predetermined second representations (RR) are generated from predetermined activities, a degree of correspondence is determined respectively between each of the respective second representations (Ri) and the first representation (R1) according to a predetermined correspondence criterion, and depending on the degree of correspondence, a single second representation (R2) of the neural signals (S) from the plurality of second representations (RR) is selected as the second representation (R2) representative of the intended activity, and the activity represented by the selected representation (R2) is reconstructed as the intended activity.
