<span style="font-size:13.0pt;font-family:"Times",serif;color:black">Recent advances in brain signal (electroencephalogram, EEG) recording techniques, signal processing methods, and faster and smaller data processors create a great potential for developing
new systems and devices that can be used for healthcare applications. For example, the Brain-Computer Interface (BCI), a system that links brain signal activation to a processing unit (computer), has gained a lot of attention in the past few years.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-size:13.0pt;font-family:"Times",serif;color:black">There have been many applications of a BCI system from enabling locked-in patients to communicate to controlling a robot or devices by patients. Neurorehabilitation is another example of the
use of EEG signals in healthcare applications where brain signals are used to improve the performance of patients after stoke or concussion.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
