text: 'The BCI competition IV stands in the tradition of prior BCI competitions
that aim to provide high quality neuroscientific data for open access to the scientific
community. As experienced already in prior competitions not only scientists from
the narrow field of BCI compete, but scholars with a broad variety of backgrounds
and nationalities. They include high specialists as well as students.The goals
of all BCI competitions have always been to challenge with respect to novel paradigms
and complex data. We report on the following challenges: (1) asynchronous data,
(2) synthetic, (3) multi-class continuous data, (4) sessionto-session transfer,
(5) directionally modulated MEG, (6) finger movements recorded by ECoG. As after
past competitions, our hope is that winning entries may enhance the analysis methods
of future BCIs.'
