Brain Computer Interface: Theory, Method, and Application

Dear Colleagues,

The brain–computer interface (BCI) aims to establish real-time, bidirectional connections between the brain and artificial devices. It is multidisciplinary, encompassing fields such as computer science and neuroscience. Advanced BCI provides new insights into brain functions, leading to improved treatments related to sleep, as well as for neural diseases such as paralysis, epilepsy, and Parkinson's disease. BCI has broad applications and continues to drive new discoveries in the field of medicine, education, entertainment, and marketing.

This Special Issue focuses on the field of the brain–computer interface and its technologies as well as applications. It includes a mix of original research papers, review articles on cutting-edge progress, and perspectives on challenges and future directions. The focus is interdisciplinary research combining computer science, neuroscience, medical and engineering expertise.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Neural signals encoding and decoding;
• Neural signal processing algorithm;
• Robotics based on BCI;
• Clinical BCI;
• Bio-sensors and bio-actuators;
• BCI for education;
• BCI for entertainment;
• Commercial BCI.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Electronics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
