脑机融合系统综述

Brain-machine integrated systems

脑机接口是生物脑与电脑或机器之间的一种直接连接通路。脑机融合计算系统是一种基于脑机接口技术,综合利用生物智能和机器智能的新型智能融合系统,其在医疗康复、生活娱乐和军事侦查等方面具有巨大的应用开发潜力。首先从信息传输的角度简述由脑机接口到脑机融合的发展趋势;其次重点阐述脑机融合系统的概念及其研究所面临的挑战,并分三个层次介绍当前若干典型相关工作;最后介绍吴朝晖课题组在脑机融合计算系统方面的相关工作。

Brain-machine interface （BMI） is a direct communication pathway between the brain and an external device. Brain-machine integrated systems are a new kind of computational systems based on BMI, which aims to combine living beings＇ intelligence and machines＇ intelligence. It has a great potential in many applications, such as clinical rehabilitation, entertainment, and military surveillance. This paper presents the advances, trends, and challenges in brain-machine integrated systems, and introduces our work in this emerging field.
