用多目标优化选脑电通道，提升运动想象识别准确率

Motor imagery (MI) classification using electroencephalography (EEG) signals is essential for advancing brain-computer interfaces (BCIs). Traditional EEG channel selection methods often face limitations, such as dependency on single-objective criteria and susceptibility to local optima. To address these challenges, this work proposes a multi-objective optimisation framework that employs non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm, multiple-objective particle swarm optimisation, and a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm based on decomposition. Our approach effectively balances spatial relevance, using a Gaussian kernel, and functional discriminability, which assesses intratrial task-related desynchronisation, thereby improving performance. We evaluated this framework on four EEG datasets: Physionet, OpenBMI, HighGamma, and BCIIV-2A. The proposed approach successfully identifies compact, relevant channel subsets concentrated around sensorimotor cortex regions linked to MI activity, addressing the prevalent challenges of dimensionality and complexity inherent to traditional techniques. Furthermore, the framework achieved classification performance of 87%, 71%, 75%, and 65% on the Physionet, OpenBMI, HighGamma, and BCIIV-2A datasets, respectively. By outperforming existing single-objective and accuracy-based methods, and those relying on fixed subsets, these findings demonstrate that this new multi-objective optimisation framework can enhance MI-based BCI performance while facilitating compact channel configurations with reduced computational complexity, making them better suited for wearable, portable, and real-time BCI applications.
