Label-free HG-beta coupling did not improve movement-channel selection in eight SEEG subjects

We tested whether a label-free rank based on negative coupling between high-gamma (70–150 Hz) and beta (13–30 Hz) power could identify movement-related channels for a small-channel SEEG brain-computer interface. Using archived trial features for eight subjects performing cued key presses versus rest, we ranked channels by the negative Pearson correlation of log high-gamma and log beta power over pooled, unlabeled training windows. Shrinkage LDA trained on trials 1–100 and tested on later trials gave mean held-out AUC 0.620 for the top eight HGB-ranked channels and 0.624 for the mean of 200 random eight-channel sets (difference −0.004; 3/8 positive; one-sided exact sign-flip p = 0.59). The HGB rank was not better than random at K = 4 or 16. Supervised top-eight selection gave AUC 0.789; HGB minus SUP was −0.169 (1/8 positive; Holm-adjusted p = 0.031). In the median subject, 31% of supervised top-eight channels had negative pooled HG-beta correlation, compared with 44% of all channels. This may reflect broadband changes that make the bands rise and fall together. The findings apply to one dataset, task, time-ordered split, and decoder with eight subjects. A rank based on pooled HG-beta correlation did not identify key-press channels better than random selection in this sample; approaches that remove broadband power were not tested.
