Abstract

This paper focuses on the variation of EEG at different emotional states. We use pure music segments as stimuli to evoke the exciting or relaxing emotions of subjects. EEG power spectrum is adopted to form features, power spectrum, differential asymmetry, and rational asymmetry. A linear dynamic system approach is applied to smooth the feature sequence. Minimal-redundancy-maximal-relevance algorithm and principal component analysis are used to reduce the dimension of features. We evaluate the performance of support vector machine, k-nearest neighbor classifiers and least-squares classifiers. The accuracy of our proposed method reaches 81.03% on average. And we show that the frequency bands, beta and theta, perform better than other frequency bands in the task of emotion recognition.
