Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of brain-computer interfaces, in particular to an asynchronous real-time brain control method driven by weak myoelectric artifact micro-expression electroencephalogram signals.
Background
Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) technology, i.e., taking user's electroencephalogram as a signal source, using advanced Computer information processing technology to decode the user's intention, avoiding the peripheral nerve/muscle system which may be damaged by the user, and establishing direct communication between the user's consciousness and peripheral devices. It has important application value in the fields of rehabilitation, high-risk operation, game entertainment, aerospace military and the like.
The traditional brain-computer interface is realized based on a Steady State Visual Evoked Potential (SSVEP) and Motor Imagery (MI) paradigm, wherein the SSVEP has the advantages of high accuracy and multiple identifiable categories, but due to the constraint of the paradigm principle, an additional Visual stimulator and Visual stimulation time are required, and the problems of equipment redundancy and limited response real-time performance exist in the problem of brain control; MI has the advantage of conforming to the spontaneous brain wave generation process of human brain, but because of the execution difficulty of imagination movement, extra subject adaptation time is needed, and the problems of low user friendliness and limited recognizable categories exist in the brain control problem. In addition, the existing research is based on the development of a synchronous brain-computer interface, namely, a user is only allowed to send instructions in a specific time period set by a system, the permission of the user for independently controlling the time for sending control instructions cannot be provided, and the application of the method is limited in the practical brain control problem.
In order to solve the problems of redundancy and low user friendliness of the conventional brain-computer interface device, chinese patent 201510423224, chinese patent 201510423398, and the like all disclose brain control methods based on expression-driven brain-computer interface paradigms. The related expression driving type brain control method does not consider the difference between the expression and the other daily facial expressions in the practical application process and the aesthetic degree of the user in the use process in the aspect of expression actions; only the prefrontal cortex and the edge system are included in the aspect of electroencephalogram signal channel selection, and the information expression of facial expression as facial muscle action in the cerebral motor cortex is omitted; in the aspect of the provided brain control expression and action, the method is only suitable for the operation of 4 control targets, and the number of the control targets is limited; in the working process of the brain control interface, an asynchronous brain control interface is not introduced, so that the autonomous start/stop of the brain control state of a user cannot be realized, and the practical application value is lacked.
In the brain control method derived based on the brain-computer interface technology, the problems of low real-time performance (low control instruction output frequency), redundant additional stimulators, function loss of asynchronous brain-computer interfaces (brain control interfaces), low user friendliness and the like exist at different degrees at the present stage.

Detailed Description
The invention is further illustrated by the following figures and examples. The embodiments are only used for explaining the technical idea and features of the present invention, and the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited by the embodiments.
Fig. 1 shows, by way of example, an asynchronous real-time brain control system driven by brain control micro-expression, which includes an electroencephalogram signal acquisition module, an electroencephalogram signal data client, and a controlled object. The electroencephalogram signal acquisition module comprises electroencephalogram signal acquisition equipment worn by a user, the position arrangement of an electroencephalogram cap channel of the electroencephalogram signal acquisition module accords with the international 10-20 standard, and an acquired multichannel electroencephalogram signal (100ms EEG) can be transmitted to an electroencephalogram signal data client through a local area network; the electroencephalogram signal data client receives electroencephalogram signal sampling data by using a computer, and completes electroencephalogram signal data processing work through a micro-expression brain control program, wherein the micro-expression brain control program is based on a Matlab platform and outputs brain control instructions to drive a controlled object to act according to the asynchronous real-time brain control algorithm based on the weak myoelectricity artifact micro-expression electroencephalogram signal driving provided by the invention; according to the matching of the brain control micro expression and different instructions, the system can control different controlled objects.
The brain-controlled micro expressions are facial expressions which are different from the existing brain-controlled expressions in the electromyographic artifact component energy ratio E of a series of electroencephalograms, can be used for recognizing and classifying the electroencephalograms by machine learning or deep learning, and weaken the action amplitude of the facial expressions compared with the existing brain-controlled expressions and show the characteristics of weak electromyographic artifacts. As the electromyographic artifact is more in a high-frequency part compared with other components in the electroencephalogram signal, the electromyographic artifact component can be obtained by selecting the filtering passband to be (75, fs/2] Hz, wherein fs is taken as the sampling frequency of the equipment.
In the invention, through analyzing EEG signal channel data (such as channels F7 and F8 and figure 2) which are easily interfered by facial muscle myoelectricity in an experiment, 9 kinds of brain-controlled micro expressions (figure 3) are obtained, wherein the brain-controlled micro expressions are respectively eyebrow lifting, frown wrinkling, left-handed mouth, right-handed mouth, smile, mouth beeping, mouth opening, tooth biting and rest. The electromyographic artifact component energy ratio E corresponding to the micro expressions has the following characteristics: e, value range: 5% -50%, wherein the high energy ratio indicates that the motion amplitude of the expression action muscle is large, and the low energy ratio indicates that the motion amplitude of the expression action muscle is small, so that the threshold range [ E ] of E can be specified1,E2]And the method is distinguished from the existing brain control expression, namely the judgment of the brain control micro expression attribute is realized. This threshold range [ E ] due to different usage habit differences1,E2]The micro expression can be automatically adjusted in the value range of E by a user, so that micro expressions belonging to a certain action amplitude can be conveniently appointed to execute brain control operation.
Experiments also show that the electroencephalogram signal after the electromyogram artifact components are removed through filtering can be used as a sample to train the electroencephalogram signal classifiers with the 9 brain-controlled micro-expressions, and effective automatic identification and classification capabilities are obtained. The electroencephalogram signal original data are subjected to band-pass filtering processing complementary with the filtering passband to obtain a pure electroencephalogram signal frequency band, time-space domain feature extraction can be achieved on the pure electroencephalogram signal by using a space filter based on a Common Spatial Pattern (CSP) algorithm, recognition of different brain control micro expressions can be achieved by combining Support Vector Machines (SVM) according to extracted signal features, and the space filter and the SVM classifier are generated by user training data in advance.
After the brain control micro expression corresponding to a certain electroencephalogram sampling time period of a user is identified, in order to avoid misoperation of a controlled object caused by facial expression misoperation of the user, on the other hand, in order to improve the control flexibility of the brain control instruction, validity judgment is carried out on the brain control micro expression of the user, namely real brain control micro expression identification is carried out, and different identification thresholds can be set according to different matched brain control instructions for different brain control micro expressions.

Namely, the 9 micro expressions respectively need n times of continuous and consistent brain control micro expression recognition results, so that the true brain control micro expression can be judged and effective brain control instructions can be generated. Wherein n is set1~n8≥3,n9Not less than 6, the corresponding settings (matching) of the artificial hand control command (① - ⑧) and the brain control micro-expression of the brain control state start/stop command are as follows:
