Abstract
Described is a system for feature selection that extends supervised hierarchical clustering to neural activity signals. The system generates, using a hierarchical clustering process, a hierarchical dendrogram representing a set of neural activity data comprising individual neural data elements having neural activity patterns. The hierarchical dendrogram is searched for an optimal cluster parcellation using a stochastic supervised search process. An optimal cluster parcellation of the hierarchical dendrogram is determined that provides a classification of the set of neural activity data with respect to a supervised classifier, resulting in a reduced neural activity feature set. The set of neural activity data is classified using the reduced neural activity feature set, and the classified set of neural activity data is decoded.
