[Using electroencephalogram for emotion recognition based on filter-bank long short-term memory networks].

Emotion plays an important role in people's cognition and communication. By analyzing electroencephalogram (EEG) signals to identify internal emotions and feedback emotional information in an active or passive way, affective brain-computer interactions can effectively promote human-computer interaction. This paper focuses on emotion recognition using EEG. We systematically evaluate the performance of state-of-the-art feature extraction and classification methods with a public-available dataset for emotion analysis using physiological signals (DEAP). The common random split method will lead to high correlation between training and testing samples. Thus, we use block-wise fold cross validation. Moreover, we compare the accuracy of emotion recognition with different time window length. The experimental results indicate that 4 s time window is appropriate for sampling. Filter-bank long short-term memory networks (FBLSTM) using differential entropy features as input was proposed. The average accuracy of low and high in valance dimension, arousal dimension and combination of the four in valance-arousal plane is 78.8%, 78.4% and 70.3%, respectively. These results demonstrate the advantage of our emotion recognition model over the current studies in terms of classification accuracy. Our model might provide a novel method for emotion recognition in affective brain-computer interactions.
