Abstract
In motor imagery (MI)-based brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are widely employed to decode electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. However, due to their fixed kernel sizes and uniform attention to features, CNNs struggle to fully capture the time-frequency features of EEG signals. To address this limitation, this paper proposes the Multi-Domain Dynamic Weighted Network (MD-DWNet), which integrates multimodal complementary feature information across time, frequency, and spatial domains through a branch structure to enhance decoding performance. Specifically, MD-DWNet combines multi-band filtering, spatial convolution, and temporal variance calculation to extract spatial-spectral features, while a dual-scale CNN captures local spatiotemporal features at different time scales. A dynamic global filter is designed to optimize fused features, improving the adaptive modeling capability for dynamic changes in frequency band energy. A lightweight mixed attention mechanism selectively enhances salient channel and spatial features. The dual-branch joint loss function adaptively balances contributions through a task uncertainty mechanism, thereby enhancing optimization efficiency and generalization capability. Experimental results on the BCI Competition IV 2a, IV 2b, OpenBMI, and a self-collected laboratory dataset demonstrate that MD-DWNet achieves classification accuracies of 83.86%, 88.67%, 75.25% and 84.85%, respectively, outperforming several advanced methods and validating its superior performance in MI signal decoding.
