          Abstract

          It is well known that mu and central beta rhythms start to desynchronize > 1 s before active hand or finger movement. To investigate whether the same cortical areas are involved in desynchronization of mu and central beta rhythms, 56-channel EEG recordings were made during right- and left-finger flexions in three normal subjects. The event-related desynchronization (ERD) was quantified in single EEG trials and classified by the Distinction Sensitive Learning Vector Quantization (DSLVQ) algorithm. This DSLVQ selects the most relevant features (electrode positions) for discrimination between the preparatory state for left- and right-finger movements. It was found that the most important electrode positions were close to the primary hand area. However, in all three subjects the focus of the central beta ERD was slightly anterior to the focus of mu desynchronization. This can be interpreted that different neural networks are involved in the generation of mu and central beta rhythms.
