Advanced TSGL-EEGNet for Motor Imagery EEG-Based Brain-Computer Interfaces by Xin Deng, Boxian Zhang, Nian Yu, Ke Liu, Kaiwei Sun

“…To address the issues, this work first introduces a popular deep learning model EEGNet and compares it with the traditional algorithm Filter-Bank Common Spatial Pattern (FBCSP). After that, this work considers that the 1-D convolution of EEGNet can be explained by a special Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT), and the depthwise convolution of EEGNet is similar to the Common Spatial Pattern (CSP) algorithm. …”
