description The processing and recognition of electroencephalogram (EEG) signal is the most important part of brain-computer interface (BCI) system, and the quality of signal processing and recognition is directly related to the effectiveness of BCI system. Aiming at the problems of incomplete removal of artifacts and inadequate retention of active components in EEG signal, a fusion method of wavelet transform (WT) and Fast Independent Component Analysis (FastICA) is utilized to preprocess the raw EEG signals. The fusion method can remove noise artifacts while preserving effective information. Aiming at the problems of poor time-frequency resolution and low classification accuracy of the traditional feature extraction method, a feature extraction algorithm on the basis of hybrid Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) and Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) is proposed. Firstly, DWT is used to analyze the pre-processed EEG signal to obtain a series of sub-band signals. Then, EMD decomposition is applied to subband signal and eigenmode function is extracted to complete feature integration. Finally, the feature extraction results are input into the Support Vector Machine (SVM) for classification. Comparative experiments show that the classification accuracy of the proposed method reaches 91.32 %, which is significantly higher than other algorithms.
