EEG-based emotion recognition using tunable Q wavelet transform and rotation forest ensemble classifier
Emotion recognition by artificial intelligence (AI) is a challenging task. A wide variety of research has been done, which demonstrated the utility of audio, imagery, and electroencephalography (EEG) data for automatic emotion recognition. This paper presents a new automated emotion recognition framework, which utilizes electroencephalography (EEG) signals. The proposed method is lightweight, and it consists of four major phases, which include: a reprocessing phase, a feature extraction phase, a feature dimension reduction phase, and a classification phase. A discrete wavelet transforms (DWT) based noise reduction method, which is hereby named multi scale principal component analysis (MSPCA), is utilized during the pre-processing phase, where a Symlets-4 filter is utilized for noise reduction. A tunable Q wavelet transform (TQWT) is utilized as feature extractor. Six different statistical methods are used for dimension reduction. In the classification step, rotation forest ensemble (RFE) classifier is utilized with different classification algorithms such as k-Nearest Neighbor (k-NN), support vector machine (SVM), artificial neural network (ANN), random forest (RF), and four different types of the decision tree (DT) algorithms. The proposed framework achieves over 93 % classification accuracy with RFE + SVM. The results clearly show that the proposed TQWT and RFE based emotion recognition framework is an effective approach for emotion recognition using EEG signals.</p
Working Memory Classification Enhancement of EEG Activity in Dementia: A Comparative Study
The purpose of the current investigation is to distinguish between working memory ( ) in five patients with vascular dementia ( ), fifteen post-stroke patients with mild cognitive impairment ( ), and fifteen healthy control individuals ( ) based on background electroencephalography (EEG) activity. The elimination of EEG artifacts using wavelet (WT) pre-processing denoising is demonstrated in this study. In the current study, spectral entropy ( ), permutation entropy ( ), and approximation entropy ( ) were all explored. To improve the classification using the k-nearest neighbors ( NN) classifier scheme, a comparative study of using fuzzy neighbourhood preserving analysis with -decomposition ( ) as a dimensionality reduction technique and the improved binary gravitation search ( ) optimization algorithm as a channel selection method has been conducted. The NN classification accuracy was increased from 86.67% to 88.09% and 90.52% using the dimensionality reduction technique and the channel selection algorithm, respectively. According to the findings, reliably enhances discrimination of , , and participants. Therefore, WT, entropy features, IBGSA and NN classifiers provide a valid dementia index for looking at EEG background activity in patients with and .
