Brain-Machine Interface Engineering

by Jose Principe, Justin C. Sanchez, John Enderle (Editor)

Neural interfaces are one of the most exciting emerging technologies to impact bioengineering and neuroscience because they enable an alternate communication channel linking directly the nervous system with man-made devices. This book reveals the essential engineering principles and signal processing tools for deriving control commands from bioelectric signals in large ensembles of neurons. The topics featured include analysis techniques for determining neural representation, modeling in motor systems, computing with neural spikes, and hardware implementation of neural interfaces. Beginning with an exploration of the historical developments that have led to the decoding of information from neural interfaces, this book compares the theory and performance of new neural engineering approaches for BMIs.

This book is really insightful. I recommend it to anyone starting in to the field and also for those searching a fast read on neural networks, Kalman and Particle filtering and Point Process adaptive filtering.
