Question about the size of input data
Closed this issue · 4 comments
Hi,
I read your paper. I'm really impressive your method.
However, I have a question about your data size.
In your paper, the temporal size of input data is 1125.
The sampling rate of the dataset is 250 Hz, and, based on the dataset description, the time for conducting the task is four sec., including cue time.
I think 1125 (temporal size of input data) was calculated by 250 * 4.5 sec..
So, why did you set the task to 4.5 seconds?
Hi, thank you,
In the BCI-C 4-2a dataset, motor image tasks were performed starting at second “2” and lasting four seconds (up to second “6”). In our experiments, we cut the trial 4 s and 500 ms before the trial (from 1.5 to 6). It is useful to cut off a period ( e.g., 500 ms) before the trial.
Thank you for your response.
But I still have a question about your explanation.
As shown upper figure of the paradigm, the cue starts at 2 sec, and imagination starts at 3 sec.
So, why did you think that motor imagery tasks start at 2 sec.? I cannot find the description of this on the official description page.
That is mentioned in the official dataset document, as follows:
"After two seconds (t = 2 s), a cue in the form of an arrow pointing either to the left, right, down or up (corresponding to one of the four classes left hand, right hand, foot or tongue) appeared and stayed on the screen for 1.25 s. This prompted the subjects to perform the desired motor imagery task."
