However, these selection is not trivial, due to the fact that there are 2Nc possible subsets for an Nc channel cap. The aim of this study is to propose a novel multi-objective hybrid algorithm to simultaneously: (i) reduce the required number of channels and (ii) increase the accuracy of the system. The method, which integrates novel concepts based on dedicated searching and deterministic initialization, returns a set of pareto-optimal channel sets. Tested with 4 healthy subjects, the results show that the proposed algorithm is able to reach higher accuracies (97.00%) than the classic MOPSO (96.60%), the common 8-channel set (95.25%) and the full set of 16 channels (96.00%). Moreover, these accuracies have been obtained using less number of channels, making the proposed method suitable for its application in BCI systems.
