创造力定义 非侵入式脑机接口的新范式 | 王延森 Wang Yansen | TEDxBeijing
微软亚洲研究院高级研究员王延森分享了非侵入式脑机接口（BCI）的创新进展，强调其如何通过人工智能赋能，实现感知与控制功能，改变人机交互范式。该技术利用脑电图（EEG）采集大脑信号，无需手术，便携且成本低，但面临数据稀缺和信噪比低的挑战。微软亚洲研究院与上海交通大学合作，建立了全球首个脑电与动态视觉感知数据集，并开发了EEG2Video模型，成功从脑电信号重建视频，精度媲美功能性磁共振成像。在控制方面，通过组合运动、言语等想象任务解码字母输入，准确率提升至0.4-0.5，用户经短期训练即可熟练使用。未来，该技术有望应用于智能家居、游戏和宠物交互等领域，推动生产力提升和生活便利化。这一创新彰显了跨
