Removal of Ocular Artifact from EEG Using Constrained ICA

Article Preview

Abstract:

Ocular artifacts are the most important form of interferences in EEG signals. Before analyzed, EEG signals should be pretreated by removal of ocular artifacts. CICA is an excellent approach to separate the desired source signals. But, the choice of reference signals is crucial. In this paper, we adopted CICA to separate ocular artifact from EEG, using a different method from Lu to build the reference signals, which can avoid the subjectivity during the operation. It was proved to be effective.
