Balancing Interpretability and Performance in Motor Imagery EEG Classification: A Comparative Study of ANFIS-FBCSP-PSO and EEGNet
This study compares a transparent ANFIS-FBCSP-PSO model with the deep-learning benchmark EEGNet on motor imagery EEG data, revealing that the fuzzy-neural approach offers superior within-subject performance and interpretability while EEGNet demonstrates stronger cross-subject generalization, thereby providing practical guidance for selecting BCI systems based on specific design priorities.
