A Novel Bci Paradigm Combining Visual Imagery and Emotion: A Pilot Study

Authors Info & Claims
Published:14 March 2022Publication History

ABSTRACT

Visual imagery (VI) has become a research hotspot with the development of brain-computer Interface (BCI). But it's very difficult to decode the electroencephalogram (EEG) during the VI task because of the lack of effective classification features. However, the classification of emotion-based EEG now can achieve a very high accuracy. We proposed a new BCI paradigm in which emotions would be integrated into VI to improve the performance. To verify the feasibility of our paradigm, we designed a two-session EEG acquisition experiment. We designed three kinds of emotions and three kinds of semantic correspondence i.e., negative animal, positive human and neutral thing. Sixteen subjects were asked to observe and imagine three pictures selected by subjects in visual observation (VO) and VI session, respectively. Then, we used power spectral density (PSD), common spatial pattern (CSP) and Riemann tangent space three features with SVM to analysis the EEG during three statements. The classification results show that the Riemann features obtain the highest average accuracies which are 84.36% and 67.36% for VO and VI, respectively. All the three types of features can exceed chance level on all the subjects. The results prove that our VI integrating emotion is a promising paradigm.
