Electrooculogram (EOG) is one of common artifacts in recorded electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. Many existing methods including independent component analysis (ICA) and wavelet transform were applied to eliminate EOG artifacts but ignored the possible impact of the nature of EEG signal. Therefore, the removal of EOG artifacts still faces a major challenge in EEG research. In this paper, the ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) and ICA algorithms were combined to propose a novel EEMD-based ICA method (EICA) for removing EOG artifacts from multichannel EEG signals. First, the ICA method was used to decompose original EEG signals into multiple independent components (ICs), and the EOG-related ICs were automatically identified through the kurtosis method. Then, by performing the EEMD algorithm on EOG-related ICs, the intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) linked to EOG were discriminated and eliminated. Finally, artifact-free IMFs were projected to obtain the ICs without EOG artifacts, and the clean EEG signals were ultimately reconstructed by the inversion of ICA. Both EOGs correction from simulated EEG signals and real EEG data were studied, which verified that the proposed method could achieve an improved performance in EOG artifacts rejection. By comparing with other existing approaches, the EICA obtained the optimal performance with the highest increase in signal-to-noise ratio and decrease in root mean square error and correlation coefficient after EOG artifacts removal, which demonstrated that the proposed method could more effectively eliminate blink artifacts from multichannel EEG signals with less error influence. This study provided a novel promising method to eliminate EOG artifacts with high performance, which is of great importance for EEG signals processing and analysis.
