Research on Removing Ocular Artifact Automatically From EEG Signals
Electroencephalography(EEG)is easily affected by ocular artifact(OA)
which appears in EEG randomly as a big pulse.Based on discrete wavelet transform(DWT)and independent component analysis(ICA)
a novel automatic method of OA removal
denoted as DWICA
was proposed.Firstly
DWT was applied to the recorded EEG and electrooculogram(EOG)to obtain multiple scale coefficients
and the combined coefficients were considered as the input for ICA.Secondly
the independent components were acquired based on FastICA algorithm with negentropy criterion.The angle cosine criterion was introduced to recognize ocular artifact component.Furthermore
the inverse algorithm of ICA was applied to project the independent components without OA to original electrodes.Finally
the EEG were reconstructed using the inverse algorithm of DWT
and then the pure EEG were obtained.Experimental results show that DWICA is preferable in automatic removal of OA.The method provides a new idea for on-line preprocessing of EEG signals.
