Developing a N400 Brain Computer Interface Based on Semantic Expectancy
Developing a N400 Brain Computer Interface based on semantic expectancy Francesco Chiossi 1, 2 1 Department of General Psychology, University of Padova, via Venezia 8, 35131 Padua, Italy 2 Neurotechnology Group, Technische Universität Berlin, Sekr. MAR 4-3, Marchstr 23, 10587 Berlin, Germany [email protected] Abstract. In this study, we present a new application to the study of the N400 related event component applied to the Brain Computer Interfaces (BCI) field. The N400 is classically defined in literature as an index of semantic integration mechanisms and it is sensitive to the difficulty with which the reader integrates the input within the semantic context, based on their expectations. By varying the level of violation of expectations in the semantic context and presenting sentences lacking the final word (cloze probability test) we want to train a classifier so that it can always complete the sentences in accordance with the expectations of the participant. The online classification is based on the av- erage peak differences in three different conditions (target, semantically related and unrelated), where the amplitude of the N400 should correlate with the pro- gressive and greater violation of semantic expectation. The findings can con- tribute significantly to this area of research that is still left with several unan- swered questions as this research is one of the first to exploit the N400 in an online experiment. Keywords: brain-computer interfacing, electroencephalography, N400, human- computer interaction, reading, expectancy, language, communication, seman- tics. 1 Introduction A brain-computer interface (BCI) provides a direct connection between the brain and an external device, translating brain signals into commands for electronic devices [1]. -

Using behavioural and ERP measures, three anticipatory conditions were explored: Informative, No-Cue and Non-Informative. The primary objective was to determine how far the pre-stimulus-Dm (Ps-Dm) effect is a reliable indicator of emotional memory encoding under different levels of anticipation, and if the preparatory process explanation accounts for any effects. This study also aimed to determine if there is an association between anticipatory activity at the pre- and post- stimulus phase, and the related behavioural outcome. -

The N400 As an Index of Racial Stereotype Accessibility
Social Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience Advance Access published March 22, 2013 doi:10.1093/scan/nst018 SCAN (2013) 1 of 9 The N400 as an index of racial stereotype accessibility Eric Hehman,1 Hannah I. Volpert,2 and Robert F. Simons3 1Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences, Dartmouth College, Hanover, NH 03755, USA, 2Department of Psychological Sciences, University of Missouri, Columbia, MO 65211, USA, and 3Department of Psychology, University of Delaware, Newark, DE 19716, USA The current research examined the viability of the N400, an event-related potential (ERP) related to the detection of semantic incongruity, as an index of both stereotype accessibility and interracial prejudice. Participants EEG was recorded while they completed a sequential priming task, in which negative or positive, stereotypically black (African American) or white (Caucasian American) traits followed the presentation of either a black or white face acting as a prime. ERP examination focused on the N400, but additionally examined N100 and P200 reactivity. Replicating and extending previous N400 stereotype research, results indicated that the N400 can indeed function as an index of stereotype accessibility in an interracial domain, as greater N400 reactivity was elicited by trials in which the face prime was incongruent with the target trait than when primes and traits matched. Furthermore, N400 activity was moderated by participants self-reported explicit bias. More explicitly biased participants demonstrated greater N400 reactivity to stereotypically white traits following black faces than black traits following black faces. P200 activity was additionally associated with participants implicit biases, as more implicitly biased participants similarly demonstrated greater P200 reactivity to stereotypically white traits following black faces Downloaded from than black traits following black faces. -

Simons University of Delaware Abstract Downloaded from http://mitprc.silverchair.com/jocn/article-pdf/4/1/15/1754910/jocn.1992.4.1.15.pdf by guest on 18 May 2021 The N400 component of the human event-related brain in one condition by a line drawing representing the same potential appears to be related to violations of semantic expec- concept (eg, the word “socks” was replaced by a picture of tancy during language comprehension.The present experiment socks). The N400 recorded in the Pictures Condition was found investigated whether the N400 is related specifically to activity to be identical to the N400 generated by words in terms of in a language system or is an index of a conceptual system that amplitude, scalp distribution, and latency. These results suggest is accessed by both pictures and words. Sentences were visually that the N400 is an index of activity in a conceptual memory presented one word at a time with the last word being replaced that is accessed by both pictures and words. INTRODUCTION 1985a) rather than in a sentence context. The principal finding is that pairs of unrelated words or words that do In a seminal study, Kutas and Hillyard (1980) discovered not fit into the category established by the other words a component of the human event-related brain potential in the series elicit N400s. This is presumably due to (ERP) that appeared to be uniquely associated with lan- priming by semantically related words and words be- guage processing. -

[email protected] ERP Peaks Review 2 Linking Brainwaves To The Brain: An ERP Primer Alexandra Fonaryova Key, Guy O. Dove, and Mandy J. Maguire Abstract This paper reviews literature on the characteristics and possible interpretations of the event- related potential (ERP) peaks commonly identified in research. The description of each peak includes typical latencies, cortical distributions, and possible brain sources of observed activity as well as the evoking paradigms and underlying psychological processes. The review is intended to serve as a tutorial for general readers interested in neuropsychological research and a references source for researchers using ERP techniques. ERP Peaks Review 3 Linking Brainwaves To The Brain: An ERP Primer Alexandra P. Fonaryova Key, Guy O. Dove, and Mandy J. Maguire Over the latter portion of the past century recordings of brain electrical activity such as the continuous electroencephalogram (EEG) and the stimulus-relevant event-related potentials (ERPs) became frequent tools of choice for investigating the brain’s role in the cognitive processing in different populations. These electrophysiological recording techniques are generally non-invasive, relatively inexpensive, and do not require participants to provide a motor or verbal response. -

Classification Made Easy Class 1
Classification Made Easy Class 1 (CP1) The most severely disabled athletes belong to this classification. These athletes are dependent on a power wheelchair or assistance for mobility. They have severe limitation in both the arms and the legs and have very poor trunk control. Sports Available: • Race Runner (RR1) – using the Race Runner frame to run, track events include 100m, 200m and 400m. • Boccia o Boccia Class 1 (BC1) – players who fit into this category can throw the ball onto the court or a CP2 Lower who chooses to push the ball with the foot. Each BC1 athlete has a sport assistant on court with them. o Boccia Class 3 (BC3) – players who fit into this category cannot throw the ball onto the court and have no sustained grasp or release action. They will use a “chute” or “ramp” with the help from their sport assistant to propel the ball. They may use head or arm pointers to hold and release the ball. Players with a impairment of a non cerebral origin, severely affecting all four limbs, are included in this class. Class 2 (CP2) These athletes have poor strength or control all limbs but are able to propel a wheelchair. Some Class 2 athletes can walk but can never run functionally. The class 2 athletes can throw a ball but demonstrates poor grasp and release. Sports Available: • Race Runner (RR2) - using the Race Runner frame to run, track events include 100m, 200m and 400m. • Boccia o Boccia Class 2 (BC2) – players can throw the ball into the court consistently and do not need on court assistance.
