By three multi-channel linear descriptors, i.e. spatial\ complexity\ (omega), field power (sigma) and frequency of field changes (phi),\ event-relatedEEGdata\ within 8-30 Hz were investigated during imagination of left or right hand movement. Studies on the\ event-relatedEEGdata\ indicate that a two-channel version of omega, sigma and phi could reflect the antagonistic ERD/ERS patterns over contralateral and ipsilateral areas and also characterize different phases of the changing brain states in the\ event-related\ paradigm. Based on the selective two-channel linear descriptors, the left and right hand motor imagery tasks are classified to obtain satisfactory results, which testify the validity of the three linear descriptors omega, sigma and phi for characterizing\ event-relatedEEG. The preliminary results show that omega, sigma together with phi have good separability for left and right hand motor imagery tasks, which could be considered for classification of two classes of\ EEG\ patterns in the application of brain computer interfaces.

Firstly the fundamental concept and research hotspots of\ Brain-Neural Function Informatics (BNFI) are described. Then the main study fields and progresses of BNFI are expounded. Finally the prospects of BNFI research are given. Studies on BNFI not only promote the "Brain\ Science" progress, but also boost the industry of a new kind of medical instruments - function rehabilitation equipment and artificial functional prostheses.
