title: Data from: Classifying three imaginary states of the same upper extremity using time-domain features

description: Brain-computer interface (BCI) allows collaboration between humans and
 machines. It translates the electrical activity of the brain to
 understandable commands to operate a machine or a device. In this study,
 we propose a method to improve the accuracy of a 3-class BCI using
 electroencephalographic (EEG) signals. This BCI discriminates rest against
 imaginary grasps and elbow movements of the same limb. This classification
 task is challenging because imaginary movements within the same limb have
 close spatial representations on the motor cortex area. The proposed
 method extracts time-domain features and classifies them using a support
 vector machine (SVM) with a radial basis kernel function (RBF). An average
 accuracy of 74.2% was obtained when using the proposed method on a dataset
 collected, prior to this study, from 12 healthy individuals. This accuracy
 was higher than that obtained when other widely used methods, such as
 common spatial patterns (CSP), filter bank CSP (FBCSP), and band power
 methods, were used on the same dataset. These results are encouraging and
 the proposed method could potentially be used in future applications
 including BCI-driven robotic devices, such as a portable exoskeleton for
 the arm, to assist individuals with impaired upper extremity functions in
 performing daily tasks.
