<p style="margin: 0px;" data-mce-style="margin: 0px;"><strong>Goals
and research topics to develop</strong></p>
<p style="margin: 0px;" data-mce-style="margin: 0px;"><span>This
project aims to investigate and develop new signal processing
and machine learning methods in the context of brain-computer
/ brain-machine interfaces (ICC / ICM) based on
electroencephalography (EEG). Particular focus will be given
to the research of an EEG signal called "Error Related
Potential" (ErrP), which occurs naturally in the brain as a
response to errors, and its application in communication and
mobility assistance systems for people with motor impairment,
in advanced driver assistance systems, and in
neuro-rehabilitation systems for children with
neurodevelopmental disorders.</span></p>
