Abstract
This paper presents a comparison among three methods for Steady-State Visually Evoked Potentials (SSVEP) detection. These techniques are based on Power Spectral Density Analysis (PSDA) and Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA). The first method estimates the signal-to-noise ratio of the power spectrum in each stimulus frequency using PSDA, which is called Traditional-PSDA. The second analysis estimates the relation between the difference of the stimulus frequency and its neighbor frequencies, using the power spectrum in these neighbor frequencies, and seeks the neighbor frequency which presents the lowest relation value. This technique is referred to Ratio-PSDA. The third and final techniques called Hybrid-PSDA-CCA. The performances of the methods were evaluated using a database of electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. The EEG signals were recorded from 19 volunteers, from which six people present disabilities. They were stimulated with visual stimuli flickering at 5.6, 6.4, 6.9 and 8.0 Hz. The system performance was evaluated considering the accuracy, the Information Transfer Rate (ITR) and the computational cost for several windows length of each stimulus frequency. The results showed that the Hybrid-PSDA-CCA method achieved the best result with an average accuracy of 91.14%.
