Recent advancements in decoding electroencephalogram (EEG) signals for motor imagery tasks have shown significant potential. However, the intricate time–frequency dynamics and inter-channel redundancy of EEG signals remain key challenges, often limiting the effectiveness of single-scale feature extraction methods. To address this issue, we propose the Dual-Branch Blocked-Integration Self-Attention Network (DB-BISAN), a novel deep learning framework for EEG motor imagery classification. The proposed method includes a Dual-Branch Feature Extraction Module designed to capture both temporal features and spatial patterns across different scales. Additionally, a novel Blocked-Integration Self-Attention Mechanism is employed to selectively highlight important features while minimizing the impact of redundant information. The experimental results show that DB-BISAN achieves state-of-the-art performance. Also, ablation studies confirm that the Dual-Branch Feature Extraction and Blocked-Integration Self-Attention Mechanism are critical to the model’s performance. Our approach offers an effective solution for motor imagery decoding, with significant potential for the development of efficient and accurate brain–computer interfaces.
