EEG-based human identification has gained a wide range of attention due to the further increase in demand for security. How to improve the accuracy of the human identification system is an issue worthy of attention. Using more features in the human identification system is a potential solution. However, too many features may cause overfitting, resulting in the decline of system accuracy. In this work, the graph convolutional neural network (GCN) was adopted for classification. Multiple features were combined and utilized as the structure matrix of the GCN. Because of the constant signal matrix, the training parameters would not increase as the structure matrix grows. We evaluated the classification accuracy on a classic public dataset. The results showed that utilizing multiple features of functional connectivity (FC) can improve the accuracy of the identity authentication system, the best results of which are at 98.56%. In addition, our methods showed less sensitivity to channel reduction. The method proposed in this paper combines different FCs and reaches high classification accuracy for unpreprocessed data, which inspires reducing the system cost in the actual human identification system.
