Abstract The main objective of this structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) study was to investigate, using diffusion tensor imaging, whether a neurofeedback training (NFT) protocol designed to improve sustained attention might induce structural changes in white...
Abstract: Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) enable control of computers and other assistive devices, such as neuro-prostheses, which are used for communication, movement restoration, neuro-modulation, and muscle stimulation, by using only signals measured directly from...
