Abstract:Recent developments and studies in brain-computer interface (BCI) technologies have facilitated emotion detection and classification. Many BCI studies have sought to investigate, detect, and recognize participants' emotional affective states. The applied domains for these studies are varied, and include such fields as communication, education, entertainment, and medicine. To understand trends in electroencephalography (EEG)-based emotion recognition system research and to provide practitioners and researchers with insights into and future directions for emotion recognition systems, this study set out to review published articles on emotion detection, recognition, and classification. The study also reviews current and future trends and discusses how these trends may impact researchers and practitioners alike. We reviewed 285 articles, of which 160 were refereed journal articles that were published since the inception of affective computing research. The articles were classified based on a scheme consisting of two categories: research orientation and domains/applications. Our results show considerable growth of EEG-based emotion detection journal publications. This growth reflects an increased research interest in EEG-based emotion detection as a salient and legitimate research area. Such factors as the proliferation of wireless EEG devices, advances in computational intelligence techniques, and machine learning spurred this growth.
The traditional marketing methodologies (e.g., television commercials and newspaper advertisements) may be unsuccessful at selling products because they do not robustly stimulate the consumers to purchase a particular product. Such conventional marketing methods attempt to determine the attitude of the consumers toward a product, which may not represent the real behavior at the point of purchase. It is likely that the marketers misunderstand the consumer behavior because the predicted attitude does not always reflect the real purchasing behaviors of the consumers. This research study was aimed at bridging the gap between traditional market research, which relies on explicit consumer responses, and neuromarketing research, which reflects the implicit consumer responses. The EEG-based preference recognition in neuromarketing was extensively reviewed. Another gap in neuromarketing research is the lack of extensive data-mining approaches for the prediction and classification of the consumer preferences. Therefore, in this work, a deep-learning approach is adopted to detect the consumer preferences by using EEG signals from the DEAP dataset by considering the power spectral density and valence features. The results demonstrated that, although the proposed deep-learning exhibits a higher accuracy, recall, and precision compared with the k-nearest neighbor and support vector machine algorithms, random forest reaches similar results to deep learning on the same dataset.
Abstract-Estimationof human emotions from Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals plays a vital role in developing robust Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) systems. In our research, we used Deep Neural Network (DNN) to address EEG-based emotion recognition. This was motivated by the recent advances in accuracy and efficiency from applying deep learning techniques in pattern recognition and classification applications. We adapted DNN to identify human emotions of a given EEG signal (DEAP dataset) from power spectral density (PSD) and frontal asymmetry features. The proposed approach is compared to state-of-the-art emotion detection systems on the same dataset. Results show how EEG based emotion recognition can greatly benefit from using DNNs, especially when a large amount of training data is available.
Neuromarketing has gained attention to bridge the gap between conventional marketing studies and electroencephalography (EEG)-based brain-computer interface (BCI) research. It determines what customers actually want through preference prediction. The performance of EEG-based preference detection systems depends on a suitable selection of feature extraction techniques and machine learning algorithms. In this study, We examined preference detection of neuromarketing dataset using different feature combinations of EEG indices and different algorithms for feature extraction and classification. For EEG feature extraction, we employed discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and power spectral density (PSD), which were utilized to measure the EEG-based preference indices that enhance the accuracy of preference detection. Moreover, we compared deep learning with other traditional classifiers, such as k-nearest neighbor (KNN), support vector machine (SVM), and random forest (RF). We also studied the effect of preference indicators on the performance of classification algorithms. Through rigorous offline analysis, we investigated the computational intelligence for preference detection and classification. The performance of the proposed deep neural network (DNN) outperforms KNN and SVM in accuracy, precision, and recall; however, RF achieved results similar to those of the DNN for the same dataset.
Recent studies have shown that children with autism may be interested in playing with an interactive robot. Moreover, the robot can engage these children in ways that demonstrate essential aspects of human interaction, guiding them in therapeutic sessions to practice more complex forms of interaction found in social human-to-human interactions. We review published articles on robot-assisted autism therapy (RAAT) to understand the trends in research on this type of therapy for children with autism and to provide practitioners and researchers with insights and possible future directions in the field. Specifically, we analyze 38 articles, all of which are refereed journal articles, that were indexed on Web of Science from 2009 onward, and discuss the distribution of the articles by publication year, article type, database and journal, research field, robot type, participant age range, and target behaviors. Overall, the results show considerable growth in the number of journal publications on RAAT, reflecting increased interest in the use of robot technology in autism therapy as a salient and legitimate research area. Factors, such as new advances in artificial intelligence techniques and machine learning, have spurred this growth.
Transfer learning is an approach in machine learning where a model that was built and trained on one task is re-purposed on a second task. The success of transfer learning in computer vision has motivated its use in neuroscience. Although common in image recognition, the use of transfer learning in EEG classification remains unexplored. Most EEG-based neuroscience studies depend on using traditional machine learning algorithms to answer a question, rather than on improving the algorithms. Developing algorithms for transfer learning for EEG can also assist with problems of low data availability in EEG classification. The primary objective of this study is to investigate EEG-based transfer learning and propose deep transfer learning models to transfer knowledge from emotion recognition to preference recognition to enhance the classification prediction accuracy. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study demonstrating the effect of applying deep transfer learning between EEG-based emotion recognition and EEG-based preference detection. We propose different approaches for deep transfer learning models to detect preferences from EEG signals using the preprocessed DEAP dataset. Two types of features were extracted from EEG signals, namely the power spectral density and valence. We built three models of deep neural networks: basic without transfer learning, fine-tuning of deep transfer learning, and retraining of deep transfer learning. We compared the performance of deep transfer learning with those of deep neural networks and other conventional classification algorithms such as support vector machine, random forest, and k-nearest neighbor. Although the deep neural network classifiers achieved a high accuracy of greater than 87%, deep transfer learning achieved the highest accuracy result of 93%. The results demonstrate that although the proposed deep transfer learning approaches exhibit higher accuracy than the support vector machine and k-nearest neighbor classifiers, random forest achieves results similar to those of deep transfer learning.
Brain–computer interface (BCI) technology uses electrophysiological (EEG) signals to detect user intent. Research on BCI has seen rapid advancement, with researchers proposing and implementing several signal processing and machine learning approaches for use in different contexts. BCI technology is also used in neuromarketing to study the brain’s responses to marketing stimuli. This study sought to detect two preference states (like and dislike) in EEG neuromarketing data using the proposed EEG-based consumer preference recognition system. This study investigated the role of feature selection in BCI to improve the accuracy of preference detection for neuromarketing. Several feature selection methods were used for benchmark testing in multiple BCI studies. Four feature selection approaches, namely, principal component analysis (PCA), minimum redundancy maximum relevance (mRMR), recursive feature elimination (RFE), and ReliefF, were used with five different classifiers: deep neural network (DNN), support vector machine (SVM), k-nearest neighbors (KNN), linear discriminant analysis (LDA), and random forest (RF). The four approaches were compared to evaluate the importance of feature selection. Moreover, the performance of classification algorithms was evaluated before and after feature selection. It was found that feature selection for EEG signals improves the performance of all classifiers.
