Abstract

Brain-computer Interface (BCI) has widespread use in Neuro-rehabilitation engineering. Electroencephalograph (EEG) based BCI research aims to decode the various movement related data generated from the motor areas of the brain. One of the issues in BCI research is the presence of redundant data in the features of a given dataset, which not only increases the dimensions but also reduces the accuracy of the classifiers. In this paper, we aim to reduce the redundant features of a dataset to improve the accuracy of classification. For this, we have employed Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) cluster algorithm to reduce the features and have acquired their corresponding accuracy. It is seen that for a reduced features of 200, the highest accuracy of 64.29 %. The results in this paper validate our claim.
