Novel applications of BCIs have also been proposed, especially in the area of human augmentation, i.e., enabling people to go beyond human limitations in sensory, cognitive and motor tasks. Brain-imaging techniques, such as electroencephalography, have been used to extract neural correlates of various brain processes and transform them, via machine learning, into commands for external devices. Brain stimulation technology has allowed to trigger the activation of specific brain areas to enhance the cognitive processes associated to the task at hand, hence improving performance. BCIs have therefore extended their scope from assistive technologies for people with disabilities to neuro-tools for human enhancement. This Special Issue aims at showing the recent advances in BCIs for human augmentation, highlighting new results on both traditional and novel applications. These include, but are not limited to, control of external devices, communication, cognitive enhancement, decision making and entertainment. 606 $aPsychology$2bicssc 610 $a20-questions-game 610 $aArtificial Neural Network 610 $aaugmented cognition 610 $abrain computer interface 610 $aBrain-Computer Interface (BCI) 610 $abrain-computer interfaces 610 $abrain-computer interfaces 610 $acommunication 610 $acomplete locked-in state 610 $aelectroencephalography 610 $aelectroencephalography (EEG) 610 $aGraphical User Interface (GUI) 610 $aheuristic search 610 $ahuman performance 610 $ahybrid 610 $aindoor room temperature 610 $aMI 610 $aMP 610 $an/a 610 $aoffice-work tasks 610 $ap300 610 $aP300 610 $aPE 610 $aperformance prediction 610 $aSHCC 610 $aSIFT 610 $aspeller 610 $aSSVEP 610 $asuperintelligence 610 $awaveform 615 7$aPsychology 676 $a612.80285 702 $aCinel$b Caterina 702 $aPoli$b Riccardo$f1961- 702 $aValeriani$b Davide 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910674032503321 996 $aBrain-Computer Interfaces for Human Augmentation$93059235 997 $aUNINA
