A Novel Baseline Removal Paradigm for Subject-Independent Features in Emotion Classification Using EEG.

Emotion plays a vital role in understanding the affective state of mind of an individual. In recent years, emotion classification using electroencephalogram (EEG) has emerged as a key element of affective computing. Many researchers have prepared datasets, such as DEAP and SEED, containing EEG signals captured by the elicitation of emotion using audio-visual stimuli, and many studies have been conducted to classify emotions using these datasets.

Automatic Muscle Artifacts Identification and Removal from Single-Channel EEG Using Wavelet Transform with Meta-Heuristically Optimized Non-Local Means Filter.

Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals may get easily contaminated by muscle artifacts, which may lead to wrong interpretation in the brain-computer interface (BCI) system as well as in various medical diagnoses. The main objective of this paper is to remove muscle artifacts without distorting the information contained in the EEG. A novel multi-stage EEG denoising method is proposed for the first time in which wavelet packet decomposition (WPD) is combined with a modified non-local means (NLM) algorithm.

Automated Feature Extraction on AsMap for Emotion Classification Using EEG.

Emotion recognition using EEG has been widely studied to address the challenges associated with affective computing. Using manual feature extraction methods on EEG signals results in sub-optimal performance by the learning models. With the advancements in deep learning as a tool for automated feature engineering, in this work, a hybrid of manual and automatic feature extraction methods has been proposed.

Automatic Eyeblink Artifact Removal From EEG Signal Using Wavelet Transform With Heuristically Optimized Threshold.

This paper proposes an automatic eyeblink artifacts removal method from corrupted-EEG signals using discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and meta-heuristically optimized threshold. The novel idea of thresholding approximation-coefficients (ACs) instead of detail-coefficients (DCs) of DWT of EEG in a backward manner is proposed for the first time for the removal of eyeblink artifacts. EEG is very sensitive and easily gets affected by eyeblink artifacts.
