US Patent 10303971 Image classification by brain computer interface

A method of classifying an image is disclosed. The method comprises: applying a computer vision procedure to the image to detect therein candidate image regions suspected as being occupied by a target; presenting to an observer each candidate image region as a visual stimulus, while collecting neurophysiological signals from a brain of the observer; processing the neurophysiological signals to identify a neurophysiological event indicative of a detection of the target by the observer; and determining an existence of the target in the image is based, at least in part, on the identification of the neurophysiological event.
