We used the Competition BCI 2008 database for this characterization. Using statistical functions we obtained features that characterizes brain rhythms, which are discriminated using different classifiers; they were evaluated using a 10-fold cross validation criteria</span><span>.</span></p><p><span><strong>Results: </strong></span><span>The classification accuracy achieved 81.11% on average, with a degree of agreement of 61%, indicating a "suitable" concordance, as it has been reported in the literature. An analysis of relevance showed the concentration of characteristics provided in the nodes as a result of Wavelet decomposition, as well as the characteristics that more information content contribute to improve the separability decision region for the classification task.</span></p><p><span><strong>Conclusions:</strong> </span><span>The proposed method can be used as a reference to support future studies focusing on characterizing EEG signals oriented to the imagination of left and right hand movement, considering that our results proved to compared favourably to those reported in the literature.</span></p><p><span><strong>Language:</strong> Spanish.</span></p><p> </p>}, number={2}, journal={Ingeniería}, author={Medina, Boris Alexander and Alvarez López, Ramón}, year={2017}, month={May}, pages={226–238} }
