EEG–fNIRS signal integration for motor imagery classification using deep learning and evidence theory by Mohammed E. Seno, Niladri Maiti, Maulik Patel, Mihirkumar M. Patel, Kalpesh B. Chaudhary, Ashish Pasaya, Babacar Toure

“…For EEG signals, spatiotemporal features are extracted using dual-scale temporal convolution and depthwise separable convolution, and a hybrid attention module is introduced to enhance the network's sensitivity to salient neural patterns. For fNIRS signals, spatial convolution across all channels is employed to explore activation differences among brain regions, and parallel temporal convolution combined with a gated recurrent unit (GRU) captures richer temporal dynamics of the hemodynamic response. …”
