From neuromodulation to brain-computer interfaces, explore how to realize the transformation of human thought into mechanical action by understanding the neuromodulation mechanisms of the brain. Imagine being able to manipulate the outside world and open up new ways of communicating and communicating just by thinking. This is not the plot of science fiction, but the realistic possibility brought about by scientific exploration from "heartbeat" to "action". Highlights include exploring the latest scientific advances in neuromodulation, the challenges and opportunities of brain-computer interface technology, and how all of this is reshaping the boundaries of healthcare, assistive technology, and human capabilities in the future. The topic of this forum is chosen because brain-computer interface technology represents the ultimate goal of the development of artificial intelligence technology towards superintelligence. This technological advancement not only provides a new way for people with disabilities to interact, but also opens up new possibilities for the future in the fields of human-machine integration and augmented reality.

This forum is strongly supported by the CCF Human-Computer Interaction Committee, and will carry out in-depth discussions on the technical development limitations caused by the cognitive limitations of the brain, the technical bottlenecks of brain-computer interface from experiment to application, and the ultimate vision of brain-computer interface technology development.

Title: Affective Brain-Computer Interface and Affective Intelligence: Current Situation and Challenges

Summary:

With the emergence of GPT and Sora, artificial general intelligence (AGI) has received everyone's attention, and some people believe that AGI will be the strategic commanding heights of international technology competition in the next ten years. If human intelligence is regarded as an organic combination of IQ and EQ, then the EQ corresponding to AGI is emotional intelligence. The research goal of emotional intelligence is how to give machines the ability to recognize, understand, express, and simulate human emotions. Affective brain-computer interface is a human-computer interaction system that recognizes and regulates human emotions, and is one of the important ways to realize emotional intelligence. This report introduces the research status and challenges of affective brain-computer interface and affective intelligence.

Presentation Title: Multi-source Neural Signal Computing

Summary:

Nerve signals contain abundant human health information, and their processing and analysis play an important role in the whole process of health protection, such as active prevention, intelligent diagnosis, precision treatment, and scientific rehabilitation. However, neural signals have the characteristics of weak magnitude, strong randomness, and diverse modalities, which cause challenges such as severe aliasing, poor repeatability, and multi-source heterogeneity. From the perspectives of multiple set and multimodality, the report will introduce the neurophysiological signal decomposition, association and fusion methods based on joint blind source separation and deep feature representation and their related applications, and discuss how to effectively separate complex interference information, analyze potential common information, and mine heterogeneous complementary information, so as to overcome interference, seek common ground while reserving differences, and integrate and complement each other.

Title: Application of neuromodulation techniques in Parkinson's disease

Summary:

The application of neuromodulation technology in Parkinson's disease is gradually changing our understanding of the treatment of movement disorders. Among them, DBS surgery can effectively alleviate the symptoms of tremor and stiffness of patients with its precise electrical stimulation control, and realize the regulation of human body functions by electricity. The development of neuromodulation technology allows us to have a deeper understanding of the working mechanism of the brain, which creates the possibility of brain-computer interface. Brain-computer interface technology allows us to connect directly with the brain through external devices to enable human-computer interaction. Looking to the future, from neuromodulation to brain-computer interface, it will develop from treating the human body to strengthening the human body, and challenges and opportunities coexist.
