Most of the BMI (Brain Machine Interface) studies have been focused on developing techniques to control machines using a set of neuronal activities in the motor cortex, the final motor output area. However, information from other brain areas could also contribute to an increase of the percentage of the correct action prediction by providing an information on the brain state to prepare the motor outputs. In this study, we analyze hippocampal LFP (Local Field Potential) during lever-pressing task in rats. Three male Wistar/ST rats were first trained to press the right or left lever under a body-restrained condition to control the food pellet carried by e-Puck mobile robot to get near the mouth. After reaching a sufficient skill level, an electrode of twisted wires for LFP recording was implanted in the hippocampus. The LFP data during the lever-pressing task were analyzed off-line using SVM (Support Vector Machine) and radial based function were utilized to predict the lever pressing. For optimization of SVM parameters, we used a set of LFP power spectra with a time window ranging from 1 to 9 sec around the time of the lever-pressing and 3-sec time window outside the period of lever-pressing. Then, we evaluated the difference in distance among various power spectra using 10-fold cross validation. We found an elevation of task-related theta oscillation 2 to 3 sec before lever pressing, irrespective of the right or left lever. The results show that radial basis function achieved a 70 % to 90 % correct lever pressing prediction rate using the LFP data. The optimal time window of power spectrum was 1 to 3 sec. In addition, the results show that SVM and the radial basis function applied to the hippocampal LFP improve the performance of BMI systems.
