Mental stress is a largely prevalent condition known to affect many people and could be a serious health concern. The quality of human life can be significantly improved if mental health is properly managed. Towards this, we propose a…
Music large-scale form, the structure of musical units ranging over several bars, are studied using EEG measurements of 25 participants listened to the first four minutes of a piece of electronic dance music (EDM). Grand-averages of…
Chronic stress is a risk factor for cognitive decline and illness, yet reliable individual markers remain limited. We tested whether two single channel high dynamic range EEG biomarkers, ST4 and T2, index stress responses by linking neural…
Game difficulty is a crucial aspect of game design, that can be directly influenced by tweaking game mechanics. Perceived difficulty can however also be influenced by simply altering the graphics to something more threatening. Here, we…
Effective urban warfare training requires situational awareness and muscle memory, developed through repeated practice in realistic yet controlled environments. A key drill, Enter and Clear the Room (ECR), demands threat assessment,…
Objective: The Electroencephalogram (EEG) is gaining popularity as a physiological measure for neuroergonomics in human factor studies because it is objective, less prone to bias, and capable of assessing the dynamics of cognitive states.…
Is it possible to predict the affect of a user just by observing her behavioral interaction through a video? How can we, for instance, predict a user's arousal in games by merely looking at the screen during play? In this paper we address…
Identifying stress levels can provide valuable data for mental health analytics as well as labels for annotation systems. Although much research has been conducted into stress detection models using heart rate variability at a higher cost…
In this paper, we present an experimental study for the classification of perceived human stress using non-invasive physiological signals. These include electroencephalography (EEG), galvanic skin response (GSR), and photoplethysmography…
Electroencephalography (EEG) monitors ---by either intrusive or noninvasive electrodes--- time and frequency variations and spectral content of voltage fluctuations or waves, known as brain rhythms, which in some way uncover activity during…
Brain source imaging is an important method for noninvasively characterizing brain activity using Electroencephalogram (EEG) or Magnetoencephalography (MEG) recordings. Traditional EEG/MEG Source Imaging (ESI) methods usually assume that…
The reliable diagnosis of cardiac conditions through electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis critically depends on accurately detecting P waves and measuring the PR interval. However, achieving consistent and generalizable diagnoses across diverse…
An acoustic stimulus, e.g., a musical harmony, is transformed in a highly non-linear way during the hearing process in ear and brain. We study this by comparing the frequency spectrum of an input stimulus and its response spectrum in the…
Impact of EEG biofeedback on event-related potentials (ERPs) in attention-deficit hyperactivity (ADHD) children. Introduction: ADHD is one of the most widely spread condition of school aged children affecting 5% of children of this age.The…
Event-related potentials (ERP) are measurements of brain activity with wide applications in basic and clinical neuroscience, that are typically estimated using the average of many trials of electroencephalography signals (EEG) to…
The human brain receives stimuli in multiple ways; among them, audio constitutes an important source of relevant stimuli for the brain regarding communication, amusement, warning, etc. In this context, the aim of this manuscript is to…
Classifying EEG responses to naturalistic acoustic stimuli is of theoretical and practical importance, but standard approaches are limited by processing individual channels separately on very short sound segments (a few seconds or less).…
Recent advancements in EEG-based emotion recognition have shown promising outcomes using both deep learning and classical machine learning approaches; however, most existing studies focus narrowly on binary valence prediction or…
Stress is one of the main issues of nowadays lifestyle. If it becomes chronic it can have adverse effects on the human body. Thus, the early detection of stress is crucial to prevent its hurting effects on the human body and have a…
In this article we present the results of our research related to the study of correlations between specific visual stimulation and the elicited brain's electro-physiological response collected by EEG sensors from a group of participants.…
