The paradigm consisted of several stages: baseline recording, hand and tongue motor tasks as the basis for feature selection, two closed-loop one-dimensional feedback experiments with each of these features, and a two-dimensional feedback experiment using both of the features simultaneously. The two selected features were simple channel and frequency band combinations associated with change during hand and tongue movement. Inter-feature correlation and cross-correlation between features during different epochs of each task were quantified for each stage of the experiment. Our anecdotal, three subject, result suggests that while high correlation between horizontal and vertical control signal can initially preclude successful two-dimensional cursor control, a feedback-based learning strategy can be successfully employed by the subject to overcome this limitation and progressively decorrelate these control signals.10aAdolescent10aAdult10aAlgorithms10aautomated pattern recognition10acontrol systems10adecorrelation10aElectrocardiography10aElectrodes10aElectroencephalography10aevoked motor potentials10aFeedback10aFemale10afrequency10ahospitals10aHumans10aMale10aMiddle Aged10aMotor Cortex10aSignal Processing10aStatistics as Topic10aTask Performance and Analysis10aTongue10aUser-Computer Interface1 aMiller, Kai, J1 aBlakely, Timothy1 aSchalk, Gerwin1 aNijs, Marcel1 aRao, Rajesh, PN1 aOjemann, Jeffrey, G  uhttp://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19163918
