Background: Motor-Imagery (MI) is a mental or cognitive stimulation without actual sensory input that enables the mind to represent perceptual information. This study aims to use the optimized support vector machine (OSVM) by differential evolution algorithm for motor-Imagery EEG signal classification.
Methods: A total of three filters were applied to each signal during the preprocessing phase.
The bandstop filter was used to remove urban noise and signal recorders, the median filter to remove random sudden peaks in the signal, and finally, the signal was normalized using the mapminmax filter. The most valuable features were extracted including mean signal intensity, minimum signal value, signal peak value, signal median, signal standard deviation, energy, corticoids, entropy, and signal skewness.
Results: The accuracy of the SVM for linear, Gaussian, polynomial, and radial base kernels was 67.3%, 55.1%, 63.6%, and 55.1%, respectively, which was optimized after the classification model by differential evolution algorithm; however, the accuracy for OSVM was increased to 99.6%.
Conclusion: Examination of the brain signal appearance for uniform motor-Imagery of both hands showed a significant difference between the signal of motor-Imagery mode with OSVM algorithm (99.6% accuracy), which gave promising results for classification motor imagery EEG signal.
