The BiGRU-TFA model effectively removes artifacts and preserves neural patterns in EEG signals, offering a promising tool for enhancing brain-computer interfaces and neurofeedback applications.
Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals are often contaminated by artifacts from physiological and non-physiological sources, complicating their analysis and interpretation. Traditional methods for artifact removal struggle with non-stationary noise and overlapping neural components, while deep learning approaches face challenges in preserving temporal dependencies and frequency-domain features. The paper proposes BiGRU-TFA, an attention-enhanced bidirectional gated recurrent unit (BiGRU) model that integrates temporal and frequency features for robust EEG signal reconstruction. BiGRU-TFA employs multi-head self-attention and a self-supervised learning model to remove artifacts without heavy reliance on labelled data. The experimental results demonstrate superior performance, with 30% improvements in signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), a structural similarity (SSIM) of 0.715, a robust correlation to true signal (CC = 0.9513), a low MSE of 0.0286, and better reconstruction accuracy compared to existing methods. BiGRU-TFA effectively preserves neural patterns, making it a promising tool that generalizes across EEG acquisition, enhancing brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) and neurofeedback applications.

Tiwari et al. (2025) studied EEG signal artifacts. BiGRU-TFA model vs. existing methods was evaluated on Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), structural similarity (SSIM), correlation to true signal (CC), and mean squared error (MSE). The BiGRU-TFA model improved EEG signal-to-noise ratio by 30% and achieved a structural similarity of 0.715, correlation of 0.9513, and MSE of 0.0286 compared to existing methods.
