Abstract :
Single cycle analysis of the Steady State Visual Evoked Potential (SSVEP) response allows use of standard significance tests to determine a subject´s gaze. This allows standard criterion levels to be set across all subjects rather than individually by empirical analysis. Furthermore once a subject´s gaze has been classified it is possible to extract a notion of expected phase to a SSVEP stimulus. This expected phase value can then be used to augment classification of attention to a four class Brain Computer Interface system improving transfer rates.
