While non-invasive Brain-to-Computer interface can accurately classify the lateralization of hand moments, the distinction of fingers activation in the same hand is limited by their local and overlapping representation in the motor cortex. In particular, the low signal-to-noise ratio restrains the opportunity to identify meaningful patterns in a supervised fashion. Here we combined Magnetoencephalography (MEG) recordings with advanced decoding strategy to classify finger movements at single trial level. We recorded eight subjects performing a serial reaction time task, where they pressed four buttons with left and right index and middle fingers. We evaluated the classification performance of hand and finger movements with increasingly complex approaches: supervised common spatial patterns and logistic regression (CSP + LR) and unsupervised linear finite convolutional neural network (LF-CNN). The right vs left fingers classification performance was accurate above 90% for all methods. However, the classification of the single finger provided the following accuracy: CSP+SVM : – 68 ± 7%, LF-CNN : 71 ± 10%. CNN methods allowed the inspection of spatial and spectral patterns, which reflected activity in the motor cortex in the theta and alpha ranges. Thus, we have shown that the use of CNN in decoding MEG single trials with low signal to noise ratio is a promising approach that, in turn, could be extended to a manifold of problems in clinical and cognitive neuroscience.
