Abstract

A method for determining the focusing of the visual attention of an individual from electroencephalographic signals. At least one visual stimulus to be displayed is generated (411) from at least one graphic object, a visual stimulus being an animated graphic object obtained by applying, to a graphic object, a time sequence of elementary transformations temporally parameterised by a corresponding modulation signal. A modulation signal is reconstructed (414) from a plurality of electroencephalographic signals produced by the individual focusing his visual attention on one of the visual stimuli.A visual stimulus corresponding to the modulation signal is identified (415), for which the degree of statistical dependence with the reconstructed modulation signal is greater than a first threshold.

Description

technical field [0001] The present description relates to a method and system for determining an individual's focus of visual attention from EEG signals. Background technique [0002] The emergence of various portable systems dedicated to the recording and utilization of electroencephalographic signals (EEG signals) in a variety of applications can be observed. In particular, the miniaturization of systems for recording EEG signals and the substantial development of analytical techniques for real-time decoding of EEG signals means that new applications that are both fast and reliable can now be envisaged. [0003] Certain decoding techniques are based on the extraction of electrophysiological features from EEG signals, allowing the prediction of ongoing relationships between brain activity and visual stimuli in the environment. The difficulty here lies in identifying in real-time in the EEG signal specific features of visual stimuli that belong to the stimuli that the indiv...
