Abstract

This paper presents a method to remove ocular artifacts from electroencephalograms (EEGs) which can be used in biomedical analysis in portable environment. An important problem in EEG analysis is how to remove the ocular artifacts which wreak havoc among analyzing EEG signals. In this paper, we propose a combination of Wavelet Transform with effective threshold and adaptive filter which can extract the reference signal according to ocular artifacts distributing in low frequency domain mostly, and adaptive filter based on Least Mean Square (LMS) algorithm is used to remove ocular artifacts from recorded EEG signals. The results show that this method can remove ocular artifacts and superior to a comparison method on retaining uncontaminated EEG signal. This method is applicable to the portable environment, especially when only one channel EEG are recorded.
