Motor imagery decoding from EEG data using the Common Spatial Pattern (CSP)

Decoding of motor imagery applied to EEG data decomposed using CSP. A classifier is then applied to features extracted on CSP-filtered signals.

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_spatial_pattern and [1]. The EEGBCI dataset is documented in [2] and is available at PhysioNet [3].

FIR filter parameters
---------------------
Designing a one-pass, zero-phase, non-causal bandpass filter:
- Windowed time-domain design (firwin) method
- Hamming window with 0.0194 passband ripple and 53 dB stopband attenuation
- Lower passband edge: 7.00
- Lower transition bandwidth: 2.00 Hz (-6 dB cutoff frequency: 6.00 Hz)
- Upper passband edge: 30.00 Hz
- Upper transition bandwidth: 7.50 Hz (-6 dB cutoff frequency: 33.75 Hz)
- Filter length: 265 samples (1.656 s)
