Their reliability degrades even more when used across contexts (e.g., across days, for changing users\u2019 states or applications used) due to various sources of variabilities. Unfortunately, such variabilities are 1) often ignored in the literature, as most BCIs are assessed in a single context and 2) poorly understood. Thus, for BCIs to fulfil their promises and be used outside laboratories, we need to make them robust to such variabilities. In project PROTEUS we propose to do so by 1) Systematically measuring BCI and brain signal variabilities across various contexts while sharing the collected databases; 2) Characterising, understanding and modelling the variability and their sources based on these new databases; and 3) Tackling these variabilities by designing new machine learning algorithms optimally invariant to them according to our models, and using the resulting BCIs for two practical applications affected by variabilities: tetraplegic BCI user training and auditory attention monitoring at home or in flight.<\/em><\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"zfr3Q CDt4Ke \" dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"><span class=\"C9DxTc \">Partners:<\/span>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"zfr3Q CDt4Ke \" dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"><span class=\"C9DxTc \">Inria center at the university of Bordeaux, Talence, France (PI: Fabien Lotte)<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"zfr3Q CDt4Ke \" dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"><span class=\"C9DxTc \">LAMSADE, Paris, France (PI: Florian Yger)<\/span><\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">INSA Rouen, Rouen, France (PI: Florian Yger)<\/li>\n<li class=\"zfr3Q CDt4Ke \" dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"><span class=\"C9DxTc \">ISAE-SUPAERO, Toulouse, France (PI: Rapha\u00eblle Roy)<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"zfr3Q CDt4Ke \" dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"><span class=\"C9DxTc \">Wisear, Paris, France (PI: Alain Sirois)<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Project brief description: French National Research Agency (ANR) PRC Project, 2023-2026 (Leader: Fabien Lotte) Title: Proteus: Measuring, understanding and tackling variabilities in Brain-Computer Interfacing Abstract: Whereas Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI) are very promising for various applications, e.g., brain-based wheelchair control or plane pilots\u2019 mental state monitoring, they are not reliable.
