In our own work, EEG theta and alpha rhythms were probed as control variables for O-NFB. Additionaly, we developed an olfactory-based instructed-delay task. We suggest that the unique functions of olfaction offer numerous medical and consumer applications where O-NFB is combined with sensory inputs of other modalities within a BCI framework to engage brain plasticity. We discuss the ways O-NFB could be implemented, including the integration of different types of olfactory displays in the experiment set-up and EEG features to be utilized.

This narrative review aims to elucidate the nature and impact of visual perceptual difficulties (VPD) associated with CVI in school-aged children, who often remain undiagnosed due to the current erroneous focus on visual acuity as a required diagnostic criterion for CVI. The review synthesizes findings from recent studies, highlighting that up to 3.4% of children in mainstream schools and a higher percentage in special educational settings may experience VPD, which significantly impacts upon their learning and development. The manifestations of VPDs, such as difficulties in motion perception, recognition, and visuospatial processing, are often subtle and can thus be overlooked, leading to misconceptions about the origins of the affected child's abilities and behaviors. The review also discusses the challenges in current diagnostic processes, emphasizing the need for comprehensive history taking and assessments that go beyond standard visual acuity tests. It proposes a multi-faceted approach to identification and support, incorporating both clinical assessments and teacher/parental observations, to better address the needs of affected children. Furthermore, this paper advocates for the inclusion of VPDs in the International Classification of Diseases (ICD 11) to ensure children with these visual issues receive appropriate educational support. By integrating lived experiences of individuals with CVI and the latest research findings, this review underscores the urgent need for awareness and tailored educational strategies designed to support children with VPDs. The findings suggest that without such recognition and intervention, many children with VPDs will continue to \"hide in plain sight,\" facing unnecessary challenges in their educational and social development. The review concludes with recommendations for policy changes and future research directions to improve the identification, classification, and support of children with VPDs within the educational system.</p>","PeriodicalId":12536,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Human Neuroscience","volume":"18 ","pages":"1496730"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11656488/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142863854","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paradigm, a sequence of sounds that are perceived as multiple auditory streams are presented simultaneously, and each stream is an oddball sequence. The users are requested to focus selectively on deviant stimuli in one of the streams, and the target of the user attention is detected by decoding event-related potentials (ERPs). To achieve multiclass ASME BCI, the number of streams must be increased. However, increasing the number of streams is not easy because of a person's limited audible frequency range. One method to achieve multiclass ASME with a limited number of streams is to increase the target stimuli in a single stream.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Two approaches for the ASME paradigm, ASME-4stream (four streams with a single target stimulus in each stream) and ASME-2stream (two streams with two target stimuli in each stream) were investigated. Fifteen healthy subjects with no neurological disorders participated in this study. An electroencephalogram was acquired, and ERPs were analyzed.
