摘要

EEG-based BCI systems hold significant promise for decoding motor intentions, especially in assistive and neurorehabilitative contexts. In this paper, we propose a hybrid feature-CNN framework that integrates manually extracted statistical and nonlinear features with a low-dimensional convolutional neural network (CNN) to classify motor tasks using EEG signals. Utilizing the MILimbEEG database, we extract 128 features per trial?comprising autoregressive (AR) parameters, Hjorth parameters, and Shannon entropy?across 16 EEG channels, capturing both temporal and spatial patterns of motor-related brain activity. A lightweight CNN is trained to classify eight distinct motor tasks with notable effectiveness. The model achieved a training accuracy of 95.25% and a test accuracy of 94.44%, demonstrating strong class-wise sensitivity and specificity. This research emphasizes the benefits of combining interpretable feature extraction with deep learning in BCI applications. However, limitations such as dataset size, reliance on executed rather than imagined tasks, absence of real-time testing, and simplified CNN architecture suggest directions for future development. The framework presents a robust and efficient approach for EEG-based motor intention decoding.
