Özet: Information extraction from EEG signals for use in Brain Machine Interface systems has been a highly effective research topic recently. Due to the complexity, high dimension, and subject specific behavior of the EEG signals make feature extraction and selection very important. For this reason, there are many studies in the direction of feature extraction and selection which affect the performance of the Brain Machine Interface system at a high level. In this study, different statistical characteristics were obtained from wavelet coefficients obtained by wavelet transform by using BCI Competition IV-2b data set. The selection of the efficient ones of these features is provided by Principal Component Analysis. The fitness of logistic regression model established with both feature groups was measured by Akaike Information Criteria. The results indicated that relatively better statistical performance can be obtained by using fewer features thanks to PCA. These results are important in terms of statistical comparison and demonstration of the success in extracting information from EEG signals.
