| Abstract | Brain computer interfaces (BCIs), also be referred to be as brain machine interfaces, transform modulations of electroencephalogram (EEG) into user's intents to communicate with others without voice and physical movement. BCIs have been studied and developed as one of the important means for communication-aid between disabled with severe motor disabilities such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and muscular dystrophy patients and their caregivers. State-of-art BCIs have achieved the outstanding performance in information transfer rate and classification accuracy. However, most of conventional BCIs are still unavailable for patients with impaired oculomotor control due to requirement of visual modality. The present study aimed at developing a novel 2-class BCI which was independent of oculomotor control including eye-opening using event-related modulation of steady state visual evoked potential (SSVEP) associated with mental tasks under eyes-closed condition. Eleven healthy subjects aged 21-24 years old were recruited and directed to perform each of two mental tasks under an eyes-closed condition; mental focus on flicker stimuli and image recall of their favorite animals, respectively. The magnitudes of SSVEP in the posterior regions of almost all the subjects were seen to be modulated by performing the mental tasks under the conditions of the flickering frequency of 10 Hz and stimulus intensity of 3-5 lx, which was used to express a user's binary intent, namely, performing one of the mental tasks or not (rest). The classification performance on the mental focus, 80 %, was larger than that on the image recall, 75 %, in average across all the subjects. Shortening of the data length used for classification would improve the information transfer rate of the proposed BCI. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
