A Comprehensive Review on Critical Issues and Possible Solutions of Motor Imagery Based Electroencephalography Brain-Computer Interface

Motor imagery (MI) based brain–computer interface (BCI) aims to provide a means of communication through the utilization of neural activity generated due to kinesthetic imagination of limbs. Every year, a significant number of publications that are related to new improvements, challenges, and breakt...

Every year, a significant number of publications that are related to new improvements, challenges, and breakthrough in MI-BCI are made. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the electroencephalogram (EEG) based MI-BCI system. It describes the current state of the art in different stages of the MI-BCI (data acquisition, MI training, preprocessing, feature extraction, channel and feature selection, and classification) pipeline. Although MI-BCI research has been going for many years, this technology is mostly confined to controlled lab environments.
