Abstract

Electroencephalography (EEG) is the spontaneous and rhythmic electrical brain cell activity recorded by amplifying the biological potential from the scalp with precise electronic instruments. EEG highly satisfy the requirements of a biometric system such as uniqueness and circumvention, but when recording EEG signals, different events which subject performs, such as opening eyes, closing eyes, clenching fists and so on, will cause signal fluctuation. In this paper, we propose a EEG-based personal identification method. Linear-frequency cepstrum coefficients (LFCC) is used as input feature to get the frequency information from raw EEG signals. A gradient reverse layer (GRL) is added to eliminate the noise caused by different events. Personal identification task and event recognition task are trained together in an adversarial way to extract event-independent feature. Experimental results validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
