Recent Advances in Brain Signal Analysis: Methods and Applications

Signal processing and analyses have been extensively used in the field of Neuroscience. For example, (semi)automatic brain-based systems have been increasingly used in various medical applications such as disease prevention, detection and diagnosis of diseases, rehabilitation, smart environments education, serious games and entertainment, security and authentication, biometry, and mobile, as well as new equipment for signal acquisition. These systems are introduced in the literature as accurate, fast, complementary, and alternative devices to aid specialists in their decision making, to facilitate the analysis and interpretation of brain signals, and to reduce and/or eliminate errors [1, 2]. The main objective of this special issue is to promote a discussion on the recent advances related to Brain Signal Analysis from novel methods or applications in order to identify innovative, current, and important contributions to the field of Neuroscience. This special issue of this journal contains 9 original works selected from the 23 submitted. These studies address new trends in novel methods and techniques applied to different applications.
