WiMi Developed a Motor Imagery Brain-computer Interface Based on Multi-source Signal Processing

Leave a comment

BEIJING, Nov. 6, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — WiMi Hologram Cloud Inc. (NASDAQ: WIMI) (“WiMi” or the “Company”), a leading global Hologram Augmented Reality (“AR”) Technology provider, today announced that a motor imagery brain-computer interface (MI-BCI) based on multi-source signal processing has been developed.

WiMi’s MI-BCI development aims to overcome the challenges of traditional BCI systems, which include signal noise, poor classification accuracy, and other issues. By introducing a multi-source signal processing approach, this innovative technology enables more accurate brain signal parsing and processing, providing users with higher control accuracy and wider application potential. This technology is expected to lead to the next important milestone in the field of BCI. Its main features and key technology points:

Multi-source signal processing: The technology employs an advanced multi-source signal processing method that utilizes multiple sources of EEG signals, not just channel signals. This means it can capture and interpret brain activity more accurately, which improves the performance of the system.

Common spatial patterns (CSP): In the early stages of signal processing, CSP algorithms are applied to each sub-band to optimize the extraction of signal features. CSP is widely used in the field of BCI and helps to maximize the differentiation of different types of brain signals.

Blind source separation (BSS): The BSS is used to identify and separate unknown and independent sources in a mixed signal. This step helps to eliminate noise and artifacts and improves the reliability of the system.

ICA-based channel identification: This technology uses an algorithm based on independent component analysis (ICA) to identify and eliminate defective signal channels to reduce the impact of inefficient input signals on system performance.

Bayesian discriminant and linear discriminator based analysis (LDA) clustering algorithms: These advanced classification algorithms are used to improve the classification performance of the system, especially when dealing with human error in subjects. They help to improve the system’s ability to recognize and classify different brain signals.

WiMi brings unprecedented accuracy and stability to BCI systems. This technology will provide users with a wider range of control and interaction capabilities, which is potentially important not only for the medical field, but also opens up new possibilities in areas such as virtual reality, gaming, and smart homes. For example, people with disabilities could more easily control electronic devices, gamers could realize a more intuitive gaming experience, and researchers could study brain activity in greater depth. This technology will advance the field of brain-computer interfaces and bring great potential to a variety of application areas.

The implementation approach and system framework of WiMi’s MI-BCI based on multi-source signal processing requires in-depth technical knowledge and engineering design. Technology realization approach:

Signal acquisition: The first task is to acquire EEG signals. This can be accomplished with an electroencephalogram (EEG) electrode array, usually placed on the scalp. However, a multi-source signal processing approach will consider multiple signal sources, including EEG, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), magnetoencephalography (MEG), etc., to capture brain activity information more comprehensively.

Signal preprocessing: Acquired signals often contain noise and interference and require preprocessing to clean up the data. This includes steps such as filtering, noise removal, and time/frequency domain transformations to ensure the quality of the input data.

Multi-source signal integration: Integrating signals from different sources into a unified data representation. This can be achieved by aligning and normalizing data from different signal sources for subsequent processing.

CSP: A CSP algorithm is applied to further enhance the characterization of brain signals. CSP is a supervised learning algorithm designed to maximize the distinction between brain signals with different motor imagery, thereby improving classification accuracy. CSP can be applied to every signal source.

BSS: The BSS technique is used to identify and separate unknown and independent sources in a mixed signal. This step helps to eliminate noise and artifacts, further improving the quality of the signal.

Feature extraction and selection: Features related to the motion imagery are extracted from the multi-source signals. This may include frequency domain features, time domain features, etc. Feature selection algorithms can also be used to reduce computational complexity and improve classification performance.

Classifier training and testing: A classifier is trained using a training dataset, e.g., support vector machines (SVMs), deep learning models, etc. The trained classifier can be used to map brain signals to specific motor imagery or actions.

Real-time feedback or applications: The final system could provide real-time feedback, connecting the user’s brain signals to external devices or applications. This could include controlling a smart wheelchair, movement in a virtual reality environment, game control, etc.

The system of this MI-BCI based on multi-source signal processing can be divided into the following key modules:

Signal acquisition: This is used to acquire EEG signals from different sources and ensure high quality data acquisition.

Signal preprocessing: This is used for noise removal, filtering, and data cleanup to be ready for the next step in processing.

Multi-source signal integration: Data from different signal sources are integrated into a consistent data representation.

Feature extraction and selection: This module is responsible for extracting and selecting the most relevant features from the integrated multi-source signal.

Classifier: The classifier module is used to train and test machine learning classifiers that map brain signals to specific motor imagery or actions.

Real-Time Feedback Module: The system can use the classification results for real-time feedback to connect the user’s brain signals to external devices or applications, realizing the goal of brain-computer interfaces.

The successful operation of the entire system relies on highly sophisticated signal processing and machine learning to ensure high accuracy and real-time performance. At the same time, the system needs to consider user-friendliness and safety to meet the needs of different application scenarios. WiMi’s MI-BCI based on multi-source signal processing has a wide range of market value and application space in the fields of healthcare and rehabilitation, virtual reality, entertainment field, scientific research, and intelligent assistive devices.

In healthcare, this technology can help patients who have lost limb function to rebuild their motor ability and improve their quality of life. It can be used in rehabilitation to help paralyzed patients with limb movement. BCI can be used to treat Parkinson’s disease, spinal cord injuries, strokes and other neurological disorders by stimulating or modulating brain activity to improve symptoms.

The technology can also enhance the interactivity and immersion of virtual reality games, enabling players to control characters and actions in the game world with their brains. And, it can be used to develop smart games that adjust their difficulty based on the player’s brain activity, providing a more challenging and personalized gaming experience. In the field of smart assistive devices, BCI can provide a new means of communication for those who are unable to use conventional communication devices due to disability or illness. In addition, BCI can be used to control smart home devices that enable people with disabilities to live autonomously, such as controlling lights, TVs, and motorized curtains.

WiMi’s MI-BCI based on multi-source signal processing represents a major breakthrough in BCI which is expected to improve the quality of life of users, provide more autonomy and convenience, and also promote the development of BCI to open up a new future. The implementation and application of this technology will change the way we live and work.

CIIE leads global development to new, bright prospects

Leave a comment

BEIJING, Nov. 5, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — A report from People’s Daily: The sixth China International Import Expo (CIIE) will be held at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai) from Nov. 5 to 10.

The CIIE, a pioneering event in the history of international trade development, has become a showcase of China’s new development pattern, a platform for high-level opening-up, and a public good shared by the whole world.

This year’s CIIE fully resumes offline activities, and is expected to welcome guests from 154 countries, regions, and international organizations. So far, 69 countries and three international organizations have confirmed their participation in the Country Exhibition. Over 3,400 exhibitors and nearly 410,000 professional visitors have registered for the event, with a record number of Global Fortune 500 companies and industry leaders in attendance.

Since the first CIIE, many participating companies have expressed similar sentiments, speaking of the tremendous appeal of the event. Some said they would bring their best and latest products to the event, and some promised to introduce their countries’ specialties. For them, the CIIE brings not just orders, but also the future and hopes.

The achievements of the past five editions of the CIIE have been remarkable: 131 countries and international organizations participated in the Country Exhibition; over 15,000 exhibitors joined the Business Exhibition; the cumulative number of registered visitors exceeded 2 million; the cumulative intended turnover amounted to $350 billion.

The CIIE not only attracts multinational companies, but also gathers upstream and downstream enterprises, providing opportunities for cooperation for various industries to reorganize and optimize themselves on a global scale. Many exhibitors said that at the CIIE, they can deepen exchanges with companies and partners in the same industry or even across industries, and discuss cooperation prospects together.

The previous five sessions of the CIIE have seen debuts of around 2,000 new and innovative products, technologies and services, including intelligent mobile hospitals, hydrogen-fueled concept cars, direct-injection digital printers, and vertical farms. It has become an incubator for technological innovation with global impact.

The CIIE also provides free standard booths and fee reduction measures for the least developed countries. It has been joined by enterprises from 43 least developed countries in the previous five sessions.

With the help of the CIIE, products such as coffee from Timor-Leste, pine nuts from Afghanistan, and cashews from Cambodia have achieved unprecedented sales in the Chinese market.

The “CIIE effect” continues to amplify. The Hongqiao Import Commodity Exhibition and Trading Center provides a permanent exhibition and sales platform for small and medium-sized enterprises participating in the CIIE. Since the first CIIE, Shanghai has recognized a total of 60 “6+365” trading platforms and introduced nearly 270,000 types of exhibits, with a cumulative import value of over 323 billion yuan ($44.22 billion).

German multinational glass company Schott AG said the CIIE presents a vivid and lively representation of the entire Chinese market. The company participated in the first CIIE with a “give it a try” attitude. From then on, it attended the expo every year, increased its investment and even established new factories in China.

The head of Schott China stated that with the expo, the company has achieved unparalleled growth, and continuing to invest in the Chinese market is a strategic choice for the future.

Thanks to the CIIE, exhibits have turned into commodities and exhibitors have become investors. An increasing number of multinational corporations are deeply integrated into China’s industrial and innovation networks.

Since the beginning of this year, multinational companies have continued to increase investment and expand production in China, with projects progressing at a faster pace. Global refrigeration industry giant Danfoss has put into operation a global refrigeration R&D testing center, German chemical giant BASF’s integrated base has started construction on its syngas facility in Zhanjiang, south China’s Guangdong province, and Airbus has begun construction on its second final assembly line for the A320 series aircraft in Tianjin.

In the first nine months of this year, China has established 37,814 new foreign-invested enterprises, with a year-on-year increase of 32.4 percent.

The CIIE mirrors the resilience and vitality of the Chinese economy, to deepen reform and pursue high-quality development through greater openness.

For some time now, the global economic recovery has faced headwinds, but China has withstood the pressures and continued its rebound, with its economic growth among the highest in major economies worldwide.

China is steadfastly pushing for higher-level opening up, and actively expanding imports. It has remained the world’s second-largest import market for 14 consecutive years. With a population of over 1.4 billion and a middle-income group of over 400 million people, China constitutes the world’s second-largest consumer market and the largest online retail market.

Kenneth Jarrett, president of the American Chamber of Commerce in Shanghai, noted that many companies with global markets need to achieve economies of scale, and if they don’t come to China, they won’t be able to reach the economic scale needed to maintain global competitiveness.

Chinese President Xi Jinping said that opening up is the hallmark of contemporary China. In his keynote speeches and addresses delivered at the previous five sessions of the CIIE, the word “openness” was mentioned over 100 times. The measures he announced at the CIIE to expand opening up have been gradually implemented, effectively promoting new progress in high-level opening-up.

China has established the Lingang new area of the China (Shanghai) Pilot Free Trade Zone, implemented an integrated development strategy in the Yangtze River Delta region, released an overall plan for the construction of the Hainan Free Trade Port, further expanded reform and opening up in Shenzhen, continuously improved business environment, and strengthened intellectual property protection.

China has deepened reform by opening up, and conversely, pursued deeper reforms to enable greater openness. This benefits not only China’s own development but also the world.

The CIIE belongs not just to China, but to the world. Looking ahead, China is willing to work together with all countries to practice true multilateralism, build a greater consensus of openness, jointly overcome the difficulties and challenges facing global economic development, and usher in a brighter future for development worldwide through opening up.

uLab® Announces Smart Outcomes™ for a Smart Office™–The Power and Flexibility of One Platform for Clear Aligners and Retainers

Leave a comment

MEMPHIS, Tenn., Nov. 3, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — uLab Systems™ announces Smart Outcomes for a Smart Office, one powerful, flexible platform designed exclusively for orthodontists, providing them with the ultimate cost-effective tool to easily create bespoke aligner treatments for each patient. The ability for orthodontists to order uSmile™ clear aligners with custom branded packaging, a streamlined uAssist™ treatment planning assistant program, and an unparalleled mix-and-match bundle and a la carte pricing platform is unique to uLab.

“The core of our mission has been to offer a platform designed specifically for the orthodontist, with tools to treat every type of case, including comprehensive aligner cases, and hybrid, finishing, and relapse cases, without pricing limitations,” says Amir Abolfathi, CEO of uLab. “Orthodontists can order uSmile aligners from our facility in Memphis or print them in their own office. The release of our new mix-and-match pricing bundles brings the ‘smart’ platform full circle. uLab has enabled the industry to choose a smart approach to aligner treatment.”

What does Smart Outcomes for a Smart Office mean?

  • High customer satisfaction. Ninety-four percent of orthodontists are satisfied with uLab Systems*.
  • Workflow flexibility. Treatment planning assistance provides orthodontists with customized support and enables them to make minor adjustments themselves rather than requesting a revision from the service team.
  • Quality plans. Three out of four uAssist cases are accepted by the orthodontist after one round of planning. Nine out of ten are accepted on the second round. uAssist plans are generated within three business days, with an average turnaround time of twenty-one hours*.
  • Flexible pricing options. Mix-and-match bundles and a la carte pricing options save orthodontists up to thirty percent compared to competitors*.
  • Practice branding. Nearly half of orthodontists choose custom packaging options, thereby differentiating themselves from other practices*.

“For many years, orthodontists accepted limited options. Today, uLab’s flexible approach has made a huge difference in treatment planning, giving me and each patient greater control of the outcome,” says Dr. Jason Horn of Jason Horn Orthodontics in Elmira, New York. “Utilizing one platform where I can design, order, and print aligners, or send them to uLab in Memphis, makes my workflow so much easier. The release of mix-and-match bundles has also allowed me to offer patients aligner choices at significant savings. The more experience I have with uLab, the more satisfied I am with my decision to give them my business.”

uLab continues to innovate to make things easier for the orthodontist.  Upcoming updates will encompass additional AI-driven utilities alongside a user-friendly web interface that integrates simplified prescription forms for seamless submission to the uAssist service.
