Abstract

The aim of this research is to reduce data for a P300 spelling system by using downsampling algorithm to reduce the sampling rate of the system. The comparison between this method and standard algorithms such as Discrete Wavelet Transforms (DWT) and Principal Components Analysis (PCA) is also discussed in this paper. While downsampling algorithm is used to reduce sampled data, Ensemble of Support Vector Machine (ESVM) is used to model and to classify the reduced data in order to predict characters. The experimental results show that the accuracy of downsampling algorithm, no-data-reduction algorithm, DWT and PCA are 97.5%, 93.5%, 96.0%, and 79.5% respectively.
