Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical fields of brain-computer interaction, motor function rehabilitation training and cognitive function rehabilitation training, and specifically to a brain-computer interaction system for cognitive-motor dual-task collaborative rehabilitation training. Background Art

[0002] According to data from the National Bureau of Statistics, at the end of 2023, my country's population aged 60 and over will be 296.97 million, accounting for 21.1% of the national population, and is increasing year by year. The incidence of stroke is growing in tandem with aging. According to the "China Stroke Prevention and Treatment Report (2023)", the current number of stroke patients aged 40 and over in my country has reached 12.42 million, and the onset population is younger. Among stroke survivors, about 75% have sequelae and 40% are severely disabled. In addition, aging has also brought about neurodegenerative diseases such as dementia and mild cognitive impairment, which have brought huge burdens to families and society. According to research statistics from The Lancet, my country is the country with the largest rehabilitation needs in the world, with a total number of 460 million people in need of rehabilitation.

[0003] Brain function remodeling is mainly aimed at patients with neurodegenerative diseases and functional deficits caused by brain damage. Specific training equipment and methods are used to promote the relearning of brain damage or redundant nerves, thereby achieving the recovery or compensation of human functions. The essence of brain function remodeling is mainly based on the plasticity mechanism of the brain. The main rehabilitation training methods currently used generally use simple active or passive therapies, such as exercise, physics, homework and speech, to stimulate the central nervous system of the brain to achieve functional recovery, but the rehabilitation efficiency is low and the rehabilitation effect is limited.

[0004] Motor learning in the rehabilitation process is a process of acquiring skilled movements, and it is also a complex process of sensation / cognition / behavior. Therefore, rehabilitation is often not the rehabilitation of a single function, but a process of rehabilitation of multiple functions such as movement, cognition, and speech, and various rehabilitations affect each other. Among them, cognitive rehabilitation training is a training method aimed at improving individual thinking and perceptual abilities. Cognitive training aims to enhance cognitive functions such as memory, attention, problem solving, logical reasoning, language ability, and spatial perception. And motor rehabilitation training is a training method aimed at restoring the patient's limb motor ability. Studies have shown that aerobic exercise combined with cognitive training can enhance the plasticity of the prefrontal lobe, and can significantly improve the daily cognitive ability and life treatment of the elderly. However, at present, different functional rehabilitations are trained separately, the rehabilitation efficiency needs to be improved, and there is a lack of cognitive-motor synergistic training.

[0005] In addition, the brain-computer interface (BCI) can establish information exchange and communication between the brain and external devices, and can realize the interaction between brain thinking activities and external devices, which provides the possibility for active rehabilitation. Active rehabilitation can increase the patient's active participation, promote neural plasticity and improve rehabilitation effects.

[0103] The EEG signal acquisition module is in accordance with the international standard 10 / 20 system, with the forehead Fpz as the ground pole and the left earlobe as the reference, to collect the EEG signals of the subject's Fp1, Fp2, AFz, F7, F3, Fz, F4, F8, FC5, FC1, FC2, FC4, T7, C3, Cz, C4, T8, CP5, CP1, CP2, CP6, P3, Pz, P4, PO7, PO3, POz, PO4, PO8, O1, Oz and O2, a total of 32 channels distributed on the scalp surface of the frontal lobe, parietal lobe, occipital lobe, temporal lobe, etc., with a sampling frequency of 250 Hz or above;

[0104] The cognitive training interaction unit is presented by a display, a virtual reality system or augmented reality glasses;

[0106] Attention-Motion Coordination Training Brain-Computer Interaction Training:

[0107] The paradigm was presented on the presentation module using a frame-variation-based stimulation pattern. The screen refresh rate was 60 Hz, i.e., 60 frames per second. Stimuli were generated by a frame rate reduction (FRR) method. The steps of FRR were as follows: first, a video of an action, such as thumb movement or grasping, was recorded; second, M images of an action cycle were extracted from the video; third, the M images were presented using Psychophysics Toolbox, and the presentation time of each image was controlled. Each image lasted N / 60s (the screen refresh rate was 60 Hz).

[0108] Take the ball holding action as an example. Figure 2 As shown, each frame is extracted from a video. The same image will last for N / 60s (N ≥ 4 in this study), followed by the next different image. Therefore, the designed paradigm frame rate is reduced to 60 / N (the traditional video frame rate is 30Hz). In one motion cycle, there are M images (M = 16 in the figure), so the motion frequency is 60 / (M×N). The normal speed of motion is guaranteed by designing M and N (60 / (M×N) < 1Hz).

[0109] The paradigm presentation module presents the above paradigm all the time, and the EEG signal acquisition module acquires the EEG signal of the subject in real time, intercepts the EEG signal with a time window length of 3s and a time interval sliding window of 0.5s, performs a Butterworth filter of 3-30Hz on the acquired EEG signal, and then processes the EEG signals of the three channels of the frontal area Fp1, Fp2, and AFz, and uses the Welch method to calculate the power spectral density of the two frequency bands of 8Hz to 13Hz and 13Hz to 30Hz, which are recorded as α and β respectively. If the α calculated in four consecutive time windows increases and β decreases, it is considered that the concentration of attention decreases, otherwise it is considered that the concentration of attention increases;

[0110] The motion control module described in this implementation case has been monitoring whether there are control instructions sent in the TCP / IP communication or serial communication channel. The motion feedback module is a pneumatic rehabilitation glove, which realizes the inflation and deflating of the pneumatic glove by controlling the inflation pump, the exhaust pump and the three-way solenoid valve through the single-chip microcomputer, so as to drive the subject's hand to perform reciprocating grasping movements; after receiving the information of reduced concentration transmitted by the EEG signal decoding module, the single-chip microcomputer controls the opening and closing frequency of the inflation pump and the exhaust pump to reduce the speed of the pneumatic glove grasping movement, so as to reduce the frequency of driving the subject's hand to perform grasping movements; at the same time, the ball gripping speed in the paradigm is reduced by outputting instructions to the paradigm presentation module; so that the subject can intuitively feel the reduction in concentration, and by adjusting his own attention, the concentration level is improved to speed up the movement speed;

[0111] Logical reasoning-motor coordination training Brain-computer interaction training:

[0112] The conventional light flicker paradigm based on steady-state visual evoked potential is used to present the paradigm on the presentation module, and a total of six light flicker paradigms with different flicker frequencies (f1, f2, f3, f4, f5, f6) are presented, and the flicker frequency is between 4 and 40 Hz, such as 5 Hz, 6 Hz, 7 Hz, 8 Hz, 9 Hz, and 10H. There is a number in the center of the light flicker paradigm of each frequency, which is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 0 respectively; after the cognitive-motor synergistic rehabilitation training begins, the paradigm presentation module first presents a random arithmetic problem, which is addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of a certain A two-digit operation, the operation result is between 0 and 5, the arithmetic problem is presented for 3 seconds, during which the subject calculates the result of the arithmetic problem in his mind, and then the paradigm presentation module presents six light flashing paradigms with different flashing frequencies. According to the result calculated by the subject, the subject fixates on the light flashing stimulation paradigm of the corresponding number. If the calculation result is 3, the subject fixates on the light flashing paradigm with the number 3 below. The light flashing paradigm lasts for 5 seconds, and then the paradigm presentation module presents the decoding result of the EEG signal decoding module for 2 seconds; and then the above method is repeated;

[0113] The EEG signal decoding module adopts a canonical correlation analysis algorithm, firstly performs a 3-30 Hz Butterworth filter on the collected EEG signal, then selects the first-order and second-order sine and cosine functions of f1, f2, f3, f4, f5, and f6 as the template function of the algorithm, calculates the correlation coefficient between the EEG signals of the visual areas PO7, PO3, POz, PO4, PO8, O1, Oz, and O2 channels collected by the EEG acquisition module and the template function, and the frequency corresponding to the maximum correlation coefficient is the recognition result (one of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5), and transmits the result back to the paradigm presentation module to display the number corresponding to the recognition result;

[0114] The motion control module described in this implementation case has been monitoring whether there are control instructions sent in the TCP / IP communication or serial communication channel. The motion feedback module is a pneumatic rehabilitation glove. The microcontroller controls 5 groups of inflating and exhausting air pumps and a three-way solenoid valve to realize the inflation and exhaust of the pneumatic glove, so as to drive the subject to present six movements of numbers 0 to 6 with one hand; when receiving the recognition result from the EEG signal decoding module, such as 3, the pneumatic glove is controlled to drive the subject to pose 3. If the recognition result is inconsistent with the actual result of the arithmetic problem presented by the paradigm presentation module, the pneumatic glove will not move and remain in the initial open state;

[0115] Spatial perception, attention, compound-motor coordination training, brain-computer interaction training:

[0116] The paradigm is presented on the presentation module using a frame-changing stimulation mode. Four actions are presented on the screen. The design method is consistent with that described above. The action has certain task attributes. This case uses four actions: index finger click mouse action, thumb and index finger pinch dice action, paper cup holding action, and ball holding action. Figure 3 As shown, the frequencies of the four actions are different;

[0117] When the cognitive-motor synergistic rehabilitation training begins, the center of the paradigm presentation module first randomly presents pictures of objects related to the four action paradigms. In this case, one of the four objects, a mouse, a dice, a paper cup, and a massage ball, is presented for 3 seconds; then, Figure 3 In the action paradigm shown, each action in the paradigm is performed at a different frequency. The subject looks at the corresponding action based on the object presented in the center in front. If a mouse appears, the subject continues to look at the action paradigm of clicking the mouse with the index finger until the paradigm disappears. The presentation time of the four paradigms is 5 seconds. Finally, the action picture corresponding to the recognition result transmitted by the EEG signal decoding module is presented in the center of the paradigm presentation module. Then the cycle is repeated in the above manner.

[0118] The EEG signal decoding module adopts the TDCA algorithm, firstly collects the EEG signals of the visual areas PO7, PO3, POz, PO4, PO8, O1, Oz and O2 channels collected by the EEG acquisition module under the four action paradigms of the subject as a training set and constructs a spatial filter, uses the constructed spatial filter to process the EEG signals of the visual areas PO7, PO3, POz, PO4, PO8, O1, Oz and O2 channels collected by the EEG acquisition module in the cognitive-motor collaborative rehabilitation training, and calculates the correlation coefficient with the training set data, the frequency corresponding to the maximum correlation coefficient is the recognition result (one of the four actions), and the result is transmitted back to the paradigm presentation module to display the action corresponding to the recognition result;

[0119] The motion control module described in this implementation case has been monitoring whether there are any control instructions sent in the TCP / IP communication or serial communication channel. The motion feedback module is a pneumatic rehabilitation glove, which realizes the inflation and exhaust of the pneumatic glove by controlling 5 groups of inflation air pumps and exhaust air pumps and a three-way solenoid valve through a single-chip microcomputer, so as to drive the subject to present the four corresponding actions in the action paradigm with one hand, namely, the index finger action, the index finger and thumb finger-to-finger action, the light grasping action and the heavy grasping action. When the recognition result from the EEG signal decoding module is received, such as the index finger clicking the mouse action, the pneumatic glove is controlled to drive the index finger of the subject to move. If the recognition result is inconsistent with the prompt task presented by the paradigm presentation module, the pneumatic glove will not move and remain in the initial open state;

The processor may be a general-purpose processor, a digital signal processor (DSP), an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), a field programmable gate array (FPGA), or other programmable logic devices, discrete gate or transistor logic devices, or discrete hardware components.
