  • My research interests focus on electrophysiological signal processing and brain–computer interface (BCI) systems. In particular, I study both non-invasive and invasive neural signal analysis for BCI applications. On the non-invasive side, my work involves the analysis of scalp electroencephalography (EEG) signals to decode brain activity and develop practical BCI systems. On the invasive side, I investigate cortical and subcortical local field potentials to enable more precise neural decoding and support high-performance BCI applications. Overall, my research aims to advance signal processing and analytical methods for neural data, contributing to more reliable and efficient BCI systems.
