Brain–computer interfaces: Toward a daily life employment
Full text linkRecent publications in the Electroencephalogram (EEG)-based brain–computer interface field suggest that this technology could be ready to go outside the research labs and enter the market as a new consumer product. This assumption is supported by the recent advantages obtained in terms of front-end graphical user interfaces, back-end classification algorithms, and technology improvement in terms of wearable devices and dry EEG sensors. This editorial paper aims at mentioning these aspects, starting from the review paper “Brain–Computer Interface Spellers: A Review” (Rezeika et al., 2018), published within the Brain Sciences journal, and citing other relevant review papers that discussed these points

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Assessment of driving fatigue based on intra/inter-region phase synchronization
No full textDriver fatigue has been under more attention as it is a main cause of traffic accidents. This paper proposed a method which utilized the inter/intra-region phase synchronization and functional units (FUs) to explore whether EEG synchronization changes from the alert state to the fatigue state. Mean phase coherence (MPC) is adopted as a measure for the phase synchronization. In order to find spatial-frequency features associated with mental state, we studied the intra/inter-region phase synchronization of EEG in different frequencies. The major finding is that EEG synchronizations in delta and alpha bands in frontal and parietal lobe are significantly increased as the mental state of the driver shifted from alertness to fatigue. This finding is simultaneously validated by NASA-Task Load Index (TLX) and Karolinska sleepiness scale (KSS). The statistical analysis results suggest MPC may be used to distinguish between alert and fatigue state of mind. In addition, the another contribution of the work indicates a simple and significant spatial-frequency pair of electrodes, i.e., Fz-Oz in delta band, to evaluate driver fatigue. It helps to implement real-world applications with wearable EEG equipment
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
