Don’t put words in my mouth: speech perception can falsely activate a brain-computer interface
We conclude that speech perception can interfere with reliable BCI control, and that efforts to limit the occurrence of false positives during daily-life BCI use should be implemented in BCI design to increase the likelihood of successful adoptation by end users.
