The Brain-computer interface (BCI) is used to enhance the human capabilities. The hybrid-BCI (hBCI) is a novel concept for subtly hybridizing multiple monitoring schemes to maximize the advantages of each while minimizing the drawbacks of individual methods. Recently, researchers have started focusing on the Electroencephalogram (EEG) and “Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy” (fNIRS) based hBCI. The main reason is due to the development of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms such as machine learning approaches to better process the brain signals. An original EEG-fNIRS based hBCI system is devised by using the non-linear features mining and ensemble learning (EL) approach. We first diminish the noise and artifacts from the input EEG-fNIRS signals using digital filtering. After that, we use the signals for non-linear features mining. These features are “Fractal Dimension” (FD), “Higher Order Spectra …
