This article aims to improve and diversify signal processing techniques to execute a brain-computer interface (BCI) based on neurological phenomena observed when performing motor tasks using motor imagery (MI). The noise present in the original data, such as intermodulation noise, crosstalk, and other unwanted noise, is removed by Modify Least Mean Square (M-LMS) in the pre-processing stage. Traditional LMSs were unable to extract all the noise from the images.
