The Annual BCI Research Award is an annual accolade to recognize excellence in the field of brain-computer interface (BCI) research. The award is open to any person or group in any country. Each year, a different institute known for BCI research is chosen to host the award. This institute selects a jury from established researchers within the BCI community, which selects ten nominees and then a winner. All ten nominees are invited and expected to submit chapters that summarize their submission to the Award, subsequent progress, and future directions. These chapters are then collected in a book with a major publisher, which also includes an introduction and conclusion with summary information. The winner of the Annual BCI Research Award also receives $3,000 and a statue at a gala awards ceremony attached to a major conference. Guger Technologies OG (g.tec), a company headquartered in Austria that manufactures BCI products,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Home - g.tec - Guger Technologies )〕 organizes the Award together with international institutions. == Selection Criteria and Procedure == The jury is instructed to score all projects based on the following criteria: * Does the project include a novel application of the BCI? * Is there any new methodological approach used compared to earlier projects? * Is there any new benefit for potential users of a BCI? * Is there any improvement in terms of speed of the system (e.g. bit/min)? * Is there any improvement in terms of accuracy of the system? * Does the project include any results obtained from real patients or other potential users? * Does the approach work online/in real-time? * Is there any improvement in terms of usability? * Does the project include any novel hardware or software developments? Each year, the Annual BCI Research Award follows a rigorous, structured schedule to encourage the best submissions, ensure the most effective decisionmaking processes, and maximize the impact. This section describes the general timeline for each annual. Since the Award is presented at a major conference, the exact dates change each year, but the general procedure will not change. * Preceding year (after last year’s award): g.tec selects the date and location of the award ceremony, identifies the institute that will host the award, and chooses the Chairman of the Jury. * The awarding institute selects the jury, submission deadline, and other details. The award is announced through various means, such as email, website postings, and word of mouth. * About two months before the award ceremony: all submissions must be emailed to the jury. The jury chooses ten nominees. * About one month before the award ceremony: the nominees are publicly announced. * Award Ceremony: The winner is announced at the award ceremony. The ceremony is always scheduled with a major conference, so the exact date and venue changes each year. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Annual BCI Research Award」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
