Gaussian Elimination-Based Novel Canonical Correlation Analysis Method for EEG Motion Artifact Removal

الملخص EN

The motion generated at the capturing time of electro-encephalography (EEG) signal leads to the artifacts, which may reduce the quality of obtained information.

Existing artifact removal methods use canonical correlation analysis (CCA) for removing artifacts along with ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) and wavelet transform (WT).

A new approach is proposed to further analyse and improve the filtering performance and reduce the filter computation time under highly noisy environment.

This new approach of CCA is based on Gaussian elimination method which is used for calculating the correlation coefficients using backslash operation and is designed for EEG signal motion artifact removal.

Gaussian elimination is used for solving linear equation to calculate Eigen values which reduces the computation cost of the CCA method.

This novel proposed method is tested against currently available artifact removal techniques using EEMD-CCA and wavelet transform.

The performance is tested on synthetic and real EEG signal data.

The proposed artifact removal technique is evaluated using efficiency matrices such as del signal to noise ratio (DSNR), lambda (λ), root mean square error (RMSE), elapsed time, and ROC parameters.

The results indicate suitablity of the proposed algorithm for use as a supplement to algorithms currently in use.
