Pk. Sadasivan et Dn. Dutt, A NONLINEAR ESTIMATION MODEL FOR ADAPTIVE MINIMIZATION OF EOG ARTIFACTS FROM EEG SIGNALS, International journal of bio-medical computing, 36(3), 1994, pp. 199-207
In this paper, we propose an adaptive noise cancellation scheme in a n
ovel way for the minimization of electrooculogram (EGG) artefacts from
corrupted EEG signals. This method is based on the fact that the tran
sfer function of the biological neuron can be modeled as a sigmoid non
-linearity. Comparison of the time plots and the smoothed linear predi
ction spectra show that the proposed method effectively minimizes the
EOG artefacts from corrupted EEG signals. We have also studied the per
formance of the above scheme for different values of filter order (P)
and the convergence factor (mu). Normalised Mean Squared Error (NMSE)
has been used as the measure for comparison. The study shows that the
NMSE decreases with increase in P and mu (but saturates after certain
values of the parameters), thereby implying a better EOG minimization
from EEG signals. It is also observed that the EOG minimization scheme
with two EOG reference inputs works better than that with one referen
ce input.
