Image Reconstruction From Human Brain Waves
Hello, hello! This one's going to sound like it's from a sci-fi movie, if you haven't already heard about it. It's about reconstructing images by reading signals from the human brain! And it is non-invasive! The study of signals in the human brain (brain waves) using fMRI (functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging or EEG (Electroencephalogram) has been around for some time now. For the first time, image reconstruction from brain waves using A.I techniques is producing decent results. The brain-computer interface (BCI) developed by MIPT (Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology) and Neurobotics relies on artificial neural networks and electroencephalography, or EEG, a technique for recording brain waves via electrodes placed noninvasively on the scalp. By analysing brain activity, the system reconstructs the images seen by a person undergoing EEG in real time. Feel free to skip this bit if you don't need the technicals. The BCI Operation Algorithm laid out in this res
