1. A method for locating eye-blinks in the electroencephalogram (EEG) without the use of concurrent electroocculogram (EOG) signals, comprising the steps of: acquiring EEG signals of a person from a plurality of EEG electrode sites for a plurality of sequential epochs; determining a plurality of cross-correlation variables from the EEG signals; extracting at least one output variable from said plurality of cross-correlation variables determined to be predictive in identifying eye-blinks in the EEG signals; and locating the eye-blinks within corresponding epochs in the EEG signal based upon said at least one output variable.
