The aim of this Research Topic is to discuss the state of the art on the use of Information-based methods in the analysis of neuroimaging data. Information-based methods, typically built as extensions of the Shannon Entropy, are at the basis of model-free approaches which, being based on probability distributions rather than on specific expectations, can account for all possible non-linearities present in the data in a model-independent fashion. Mutual Information-like methods can also be applied on interacting dynamical variables described by time-series, thus addressing the uncertainty reduction (or information) in one variable by conditioning on another set of variables. In the last years...

The Annual BCI Research Awards are international prizes that recognize the top new projects in brain-computer interface (BCI) research. This book contains summaries of the key projects from the 2018 BCI Research Award. Each article is authored by the group of researchers who developed the project, and articles have been updated with new progress achieved since 2018. They are complemented by an introduction by the editors together with a chapter of highlights and interviews with the 2018 award winners. One of the prominent trends in recent years has been the development of BCIs for new patient groups; many chapters in this book present emerging and novel research directions likely to become more prevalent in the near future.
Brain–Computer Interfaces Handbook: Technological and Theoretical Advances provides a tutorial and an overview of the rich and multi-faceted world of Brain–Computer Interfaces (BCIs). The authors supply readers with a contemporary presentation of fundamentals, theories, and diverse applications of BCI, creating a valuable resource for anyone involved with the improvement of people’s lives by replacing, restoring, improving, supplementing or enhancing natural output from the central nervous system. It is a useful guide for readers interested in understanding how neural bases for cognitive and sensory functions, such as seeing, hearing, and remembering, relate to real-world technologies....
The book focuses on original approaches intended to support the development of biologically inspired cognitive architectures. It bridges together different disciplines, from classical artificial intelligence to linguistics, from neuro- and social sciences to design and creativity, among others. The chapters, based on contributions presented at the Eleventh Annual Meeting of the BICA Society, held on November 10-14, 2020, in Natal, Brazil, discuss emerging methods, theories and ideas towards the realization of general-purpose humanlike artificial intelligence or fostering a better understanding of the ways the human mind works. All in all, the book provides engineers, mathematicians, psychologists, computer scientists and other experts with a timely snapshot of recent research and a source of inspiration for future developments in the broadly intended areas of artificial intelligence and biological inspiration.

This book reports on theoretical and experimental research answering key questions in neuroscience, philosophy of mind, and cognitive research. It gives a special emphasis on findings achieved within the territory of the former U.S.S.R, which has remained largely unknown to an international readership. The volume gathers authoritative studies on cognitive development, consciousness, attention and perception. It covers research on eye movements, language, speech and semantics, emotion, as well as brain functional states, and a variety of decision-making processes. It also highlights important advances in cognitive robotics and artificial intelligence, discussing brain-computer interfaces and ...
Current Research in Neuroadaptive Technology provides readers with insight into the state-of-the-art field of neuroadaptive technology. The book covers the breadth and depth of current research in this field, covering a range of application domains in sufficient technical detail. The multidisciplinary character of this field means that the publication of key research is often fragmented across specialist journals. Here, the editors have consolidated current research, carefully selecting key topics that are clustered around the concept of neuroadaptive technology. In summary, the book meets the needs of readers by consolidating multidisciplinary research around a nascent technological concept...
This book gathers the proceedings of the Seventh International Conference on Computational Science and Technology (ICCST 2021), held in Labuan, Malaysia, on 28–29 August 2021. The respective contributions offer practitioners and researchers a range of new computational techniques and solutions, identify emerging issues, and outline future research directions, while also showing them how to apply the latest large-scale, high-performance computational methods.
