The objective of this study was to test whether properties of 1-s segments of spontaneous scalp EEG activity can be used to automatically distinguish the awake state from the anesthetized state in patients undergoing general propofol anesthesia. Twenty five channel EEG was recorded from 10 patients undergoing general intravenous propofol anesthesia with remifentanil during anterior cervical discectomy and fusion. From this, we extracted properties of the EEG by applying the Directed Transfer Function (DTF) directly to every 1-s segment of the raw EEG signal. The extracted properties were used to develop a data-driven classification algorithm to categorize patients as "anesthetized" or "awake" for every 1-s segment of raw EEG. The properties of the EEG signal were significantly different in the awake and anesthetized states for at least 8 of the 25 channels ( < 0.05, Bonferroni corrected Wilcoxon rank-sum tests). Using these differences, our algorithms achieved classification accuracies of 95.9%. Properties of the DTF calculated from 1-s segments of raw EEG can be used to reliably classify whether the patients undergoing general anesthesia with propofol and remifentanil were awake or anesthetized. This method may be useful for developing automatic real-time monitors of anesthesia.

Accurate monitoring of drowsy driving through electroencephalography (EEG) can effectively reduce traffic accidents. Developing a calibration-free drowsiness detection system with single-channel EEG alone is very challenging due to the non-stationarity of EEG signals, the heterogeneity among different individuals, and the relatively parsimonious compared to multi-channel EEG. Although deep learning-based approaches can effectively decode EEG signals, most deep learning models lack interpretability due to their black-box nature.

Objective: The neuropsychological adverse effects of antiseizure medications (ASMs) influence the tolerability, and in turn effectiveness of these medications, which can occur in a dose-dependent fashion. In this study, we examine the neuropsychological effects of perampanel (PER) at 4 mg daily as this dose has not been previously assessed with objective cognitive tests.

Methods: The study was originally designed to assess (1) effects of perampanel at 4 mg using different titration rates, and (2) habituation over time.

A Fine-grained Hemispheric Asymmetry Network for accurate and interpretable EEG-based emotion classification.

In this work, we propose a Fine-grained Hemispheric Asymmetry Network (FG-HANet), an end-to-end deep learning model that leverages hemispheric asymmetry features within 2-Hz narrow frequency bands for accurate and interpretable emotion classification over raw EEG data. In particular, the FG-HANet extracts features not only from original inputs but also from their mirrored versions, and applies Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filters at a granularity as fine as 2-Hz to acquire fine-grained spectral information. Furthermore, to guarantee sufficient attention to hemispheric asymmetry features, we tailor a three-stage training pipeline for the FG-HANet to further boost its performance.

Background: Emotions significantly influence decision-making, social interactions, and medical outcomes. Leveraging emotion recognition through Electroencephalography (EEG) signals offers potential advancements in personalized medicine, adaptive technologies, and mental health diagnostics. This study aimed to evaluate the performance of three neural network architectures-ShallowFBCSPNet, Deep4Net, and EEGNetv4-for emotion classification using the SEED-V dataset.
