The Impact

Recognition of human emotions is a fascinating research field that motivates many researchers to use various approaches, such as facial expression, speech or gesture of the body. Electroencephalogram (EEG) is another approach of recognizing human emotion through brain signals and has offered promising findings. Although EEG signals provide detail information on human emotional states, the analysis of non-linear and chaotic characteristics of EEG signals is a substantial problem. The main challenge remains in analyzing EEG signals to extract relevant features in order to achieve optimum classification performance. Various feature extraction methods have been developed by researchers, which mainly can be categorized under time, frequency or time-frequency based feature extraction methods. Yet, there are numerous setting that could affect the performance of any model. In this paper, we investigated the performance of Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) and Discrete Wavelet Packet Transform (DWPT), which are time-frequency domain methods using Support Vector Machine (SVM) and k-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) classification techniques. Different SVM kernel functions and distance metrics of KNN are tested in this study by using subject-dependent and subject -independent approaches. The experiment is implemented using publicly available DEAP dataset. The experimental results show that DWT is mostly suitable with weighted KNN classifier while DWPT reported better results when tested using Linear SVM classifier to accurately classify the EEG signals on subject-dependent approach. Consistent results are observed for DWT-KNN on subject-independent approach, however SVM works better in the setting of quadratic kernel functions. These results indicate that further investigation is significant to examine the impact of different setting of methods in analyzing large scale of EEG data

The aim of the study is to compare electroencephalographic (EEG) signal feature extraction methods in the context of the effectiveness of the classification of brain activities. For classification, electroencephalographic signals were obtained using an EEG device from 17 subjects in three mental states (relaxation, excitation, and solving logical task). Blind source separation employing independent component analysis (ICA) was performed on obtained signals. Welch’s method, autoregressive modeling, and discrete wavelet transform were used for feature extraction. Principal component analysis (PCA) was performed in order to reduce the dimensionality of feature vectors. k-Nearest Neighbors (kNN), Support Vector Machines (SVM), and Neural Networks (NN) were employed for classification. Precision, recall, F1 score, as well as a discussion based on statistical analysis, were shown. The paper also contains code utilized in preprocessing and the main part of experiments.

Many approaches have been proposed using Electroencephalogram (EEG) to detect epilepsy seizures in their early stages. Epilepsy seizure is a severe neurological disease. Practitioners continue to rely on manual testing of EEG signals. Artificial intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) can effectively deal with this problem. ML can be used to classify EEG signals employing feature extraction techniques. This work focuses on automated detection for epilepsy seizures using ML techniques. Various algorithms are investigated, such as  Bagging, Decision Tree (DT), Adaboost, Support vector machine (SVM), K-nearest neighbors(KNN), Artificial neural network(ANN), Naïve Bayes, and Random Forest (RF) to distinguish injected signals from normal ones with high accuracy. In this work, 54 Discrete wavelet transforms (DWTs) are used for feature extraction, and the similarity distance is applied to identify the most powerful features. The features are then selected to form the features matrix. The matrix is subsequently used to train ML. The proposed approach is evaluated through different metrics such as F-measure, precision, accuracy, and Recall.

Classifying nucleic acid trace files is an important issue in molecular biology researches. For the purpose of obtaining better classification performance, the question of which features are used and what classifier is implemented to best represent the properties of nucleic acid trace files plays a vital role. In this study, different feature extraction methods based on statistical and entropy theory are utilized to discriminate deoxyribonucleic acid chromatograms, and distinguishing their signals visually is almost impossible. Extracted features are used as the input feature set for the classifiers of Support Vector Machines (SVM) with different kernel functions. The proposed framework is applied to a total number of 200 hepatitis nucleic acid trace files which consist of Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) and Hepatitis C Virus (HCV). While the use of statistical-based feature extraction methods allows representing the properties of hepatitis nucleic acid trace files with descriptive measures such as mean, median and standard deviation, entropy-based feature extraction methods including permutation entropy and multiscale permutation entropy enable quantifying the complexity of these files. The results indicate that using statistical and entropy-based features produces exceptionally high performances in terms of accuracies (reached at nearly 99%) in classifying HBV and HCV.

Electroencephalography (EEG) is a non-invasive technique used to record the brain’s evoked and induced electrical activity from the scalp. Artificial intelligence, particularly machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) algorithms, are increasingly being applied to EEG data for pattern analysis, group membership classification, and brain-computer interface purposes. This study aimed to systematically review recent advances in ML and DL supervised models for decoding and classifying EEG signals. Moreover, this article provides a comprehensive review of the state-of-the-art techniques used for EEG signal preprocessing and feature extraction. To this end, several academic databases were searched to explore relevant studies from the year 2000 to the present. Our results showed that the application of ML and DL in both mental workload and motor imagery tasks has received substantial attention in recent years. A total of 75% of DL studies applied convolutional neural networks with various learning algorithms, and 36% of ML studies achieved competitive accuracy by using a support vector machine algorithm. Wavelet transform was found to be the most common feature extraction method used for all types of tasks. We further examined the specific feature extraction methods and end classifier recommendations discovered in this systematic review.

Feature Extraction Technique

These Electroencephalography (EEG) signals is an effective tool for identification, monitoring, and treatment of epilepsy, but EEG signals need highly experienced personnel to interpret it correctly due to its complexity, even for an expert it is monotonous and usually consume much time. Therefore, the automatic computer-aided device (CAD) needs to be developed to overcome those challenges associated with epilepsy interpretation and diagnosis. The system efficiency relies largely on the quality of features supply as input to classifiers. This paper presents an efficient feature extraction technique to develop a CAD system that can detect and classify normal, interictal and ictal epilepsy signals correctly with high accuracy. Our approach employs time-frequency features, statistical features and nonlinear features combined as hybrid features to train and test the classifier. Machine learning classifiers of multi-class support vector machine (mSVM) and feed-forward neural network (FFNN) with fivefold cross-validation are used to classifies normal, interictal and ictal with our proposed features. Our system was tested using a publicly available database with three classes each of 100 single channels EEG signals of 4096 samples point each. Based on sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy, our proposed approach of multiclass classification shows a good performance with 96.7%, 98.3% and 100% of sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy respectively.

Wavelet transform decomposition of electroencephalogram (EEG) signals has been widely used for the analysis and detection of epileptic seizure of patients. However, the classification of EEG signals is still challenging because of high nonstationarity and high dimensionality. The aim of this work is an automatic classification of the EEG recordings by using statistical features extraction and support vector machine. From a real database, two sets of EEG signals are used: EEG recorded from a healthy person and from an epileptic person during epileptic seizures. Three important statistical features are computed at different sub-bands discrete wavelet and wavelet packet decomposition of EEG recordings. In this study, to select the best wavelet for our application, five wavelet basis functions are considered for processing EEG signals. After reducing the dimension of the obtained data by linear discriminant analysis and principal component analysis (PCA), feature vectors are used to model and to train the efficient support vector machine classifier. In order to show the efficiency of this approach, the statistical classification performances are evaluated, and a rate of 100% for the best classification accuracy is obtained and is compared with those obtained in other studies for the same dataset. However, this method is not meant to replace the clinician but can assist him for his diagnosis and reinforce his decision.

A discrete wavelet transform (DWT) extracts meaningful information in a time-frequency domain and is a favorable feature extraction approach from pulse-like responses in large pulse voltammetry (LAPV) electronic tongues (e-tongue). A regular DWT generates lots of coefficients to describe signal details and approximations at different scales. Thus, coefficient selection is necessary to reduce the feature size. However, the common DWT-based feature selection follows a passive mode: manipulation through human experience or exhaustive trials. It is subjective, time consuming, and barely works in nonlaboratory conditions. In this paper, we present an active feature selection strategy consisting of a dispersion ratio computation and optimal searching search. To evaluate the performance of the proposed method, we prepared several beverage samples and performed experiments with a LAPV e-tongue. Meanwhile, the features of raw response, peak-inflection point, referenced DWT method, and our proposed method were presented to indicate the effects of the refined features of the proposed method. Furthermore, we utilized several classifiers such as the k-nearest neighbor (k-NN), support vector machine (SVM), and random forest (RF) to evaluate the improvement of recognition by the refined features. Compared with other regular feature extraction methods, the proposed method can automatically explore high-quality features with an acceptable feature size. Moreover, the highest average accuracy was achieved by the proposed method for each classifier. It is an alternative feature extraction approach for a LAPV e-tongue without any manipulation in real applications.
