EMG
10. Extra-Physiological Artifacts: Extra-Physiological Artifacts
∙Alternating Current
Artifact
∙It happens when there is no
sufficient grounding for the
EEG cap electrodes
∙Electrode Artifact
Incorrect placement of the
electrode on the patient’s head
∙Movements in Recording
Environment
∙Movement of other people
around the patient

11. Physiological Artifacts: Physiological Artifacts
∙EOG
∙It occurs from eye
movement functionality
during EEG recording
∙ECG
Caused by the interface of the
heartbeats and moves potentials
over patient’s scalp surface
∙EMG
∙Generated by clenching of
jaw muscles.

14. Signal Improvement
∙Linear Filtering
∙Low pass filter & high pass
filter (No Overlapping)
∙Cauchy Filter
Capable of filtering EOG and EMG
artifacts especially at medical
applications such as Epilepsy
Seizures.

16. Feature Extraction
∙Raw EEG
∙Infrequently used due to the
amount of data features
∙Fast Fourier Transform
(FFT)
As with Raw EEG, FFT contains
large amounts of data.

• Not enough understanding of the brain
• Bringing BMI applications into the real world.
• Signal processing
• Having hardware the suits the users environment.
