Abstract

EEG recordings are frequently contaminated with unavoidable artifacts. Preprocessing in EEG has been a dynamic field of investigation as none of the reported methods can be reviewed as a standard approach for effective artifact removal. This paper presents a broad survey of the existing artifact removal methods. This review is expected to help researchers in improving the existing artifact handling techniques so as to relieve the expert’s burden by ensuring efficient analysis.
