Article Citation - WoS: 56Citation - Scopus: 69Synchrosqueezing Transform Based Feature Extraction From EEG Signals for Emotional State Prediction(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2019-07) Ozel, Pinar; Akan, Aydin; Yilmaz, BulentThis paper presents a novel method for emotion recognition based on time-frequency analysis using multivariate synchrosqueezing transform (MSST) of multichannel electroencephalography (EEG) signals. With the advancements of the multichannel sensor applications, the need for multivariate algorithms has become obvious for extracting features that stem from multichannel dependency in addition to mono-channel features. In order to model the joint oscillatory structure of these multichannel signals, MSST has recently been proposed. It uses the concepts of joint instantaneous frequency and bandwidth. Electrophysiological data processing mostly requires joint time-frequency analysis in addition to both time and frequency analysis separately. The short-time Fourier transform (STFT) and wavelet transform (WT) are the main approaches utilized in time-frequency analysis. In this paper, the feasibility and performance of multivariate wavelet-based synchrosqueezing algorithm was demonstrated on EEG signals obtained from publically available DEAP database by comparing with its univariate version. Eight emotional states were considered by combining arousal-valence and dominance dimensions. Using linear support vector machines (SVM) as a classifier, MSST and its univariate version resulted in the highest prediction accuracy rates of (9) over tilde3% among all emotional states.

Two different multimedia learning environments in a focused (integrated) and split-attention (separated) format were designed. The experimental design method was used. The participants consisted of 44 students divided into two groups for focused attention and split-attention. There were significant differences between the fixation, brain wave, and retention performance of the two groups. Fixations of the split-attention group were higher than the focused attention group. A significant difference was found in the focused attention group in the alpha brain wave in the frontal region for intra-group comparisons and in the split-attention group in the beta brain wave in the frontal area for the inter-group comparison. The retention performance of the focused attention group was higher than the split-attention group. Accordingly, more cognitive activity emerged in environments where the text was not integrated into the picture. Additionally, the narration of text instead of printed text is effective for focusing attention. To prevent the emergence of a split-attention effect, the text should be integrated into the picture in designs. Due to the split-attention effect, the eye-tracking and EEG data were different between the groups.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Prediction of Preference and Effect of Music on Preference: A Preliminary Study on Electroencephalography from Young Women(Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2019-03-01) Yilmaz, Bulent; Gazeloglu, Cengiz; Altindis, FatihNeuromarketing is the application of the neuroscientific approaches to analyze and understand economically relevant behavior. In this study, the effect of loud and rhythmic music in a sample neuromarketing setup is investigated. The second aim was to develop an approach in the prediction of preference using only brain signals. In this work, 19-channel EEG signals were recorded and two experimental paradigms were implemented: no music/silence and rhythmic, loud music using a headphone, while viewing women shoes. For each 10-sec epoch, normalized power spectral density (PSD) of EEG data for six frequency bands was estimated using the Burg method. The effect of music was investigated by comparing the mean differences between music and no music groups using independent two-sample t-test. In the preference prediction part sequential forward selection, k-nearest neighbors (k-NN) and the support vector machines (SVM), and 5-fold cross-validation approaches were used. It is found that music did not affect like decision in any of the power bands, on the contrary, music affected dislike decisions for all bands with no exceptions. Furthermore, the accuracies obtained in preference prediction study were between 77.5 and 82.5% for k-NN and SVM techniques. The results of the study showed the feasibility of using EEG signals in the investigation of the music effect on purchasing behavior and the prediction of preference of an individual.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 5Noise-Assisted Multivariate Empirical Mode Decomposition Based Emotion Recognition(Istanbul Univ-Cerrahapasa, 2018-08-03) Ozel, Pinar; Akan, Aydin; Yilmaz, BulentEmotion state detection or emotion recognition cuts across different disciplines because of the many parameters that embrace the brain's complex neural structure, signal processing methods, and pattern recognition algorithms. Currently, in addition to classical time-frequency methods, emotional state data have been processed via data-driven methods such as empirical mode decomposition (EMD). Despite its various benefits, EMD has several drawbacks: it is intended for univariate data; it is prone to mode mixing; and the number of local extrema must be enough before the EMD process can begin. To overcome these problems, this study employs a multivariate EMD and its noise-assisted version in the emotional state classification of electroencephalogram signals.

In this study, we performed experiments using four distinct paradigms such as natural swallowing, induced saliva swallowing, induced water swallowing, and induced tongue protrusion on 30 right-handed individuals (aged 18 to 56). We utilized a 16-channel wearable EEG headset. We thoroughly investigated the impact of different preprocessing methods (Independent Component Analysis, Empirical Mode Decomposition, bandpass filtering) and visualization techniques (spectrograms, scalograms) on the classification performance of multichannel EEG signals. Additionally, we explored the utilization and potential contributions of deep learning models, particularly Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), in EEG-based classification processes. The novelty of this study lies in its comprehensive examination of the potential of deep learning models, specifically in distinguishing between resting state and motor imagery swallowing processes, using a diverse combination of EEG signal preprocessing and visualization techniques. The results showed that it was possible to distinguish the resting state from the imagination of swallowing with 89.8% accuracy, especially using continuous wavelet transform (CWT) based scalograms. The findings of this study may provide significant contributions to the development of effective methods for the rehabilitation and treatment of swallowing difficulties based on motor imagery-based brain computer interfaces.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 3İki Durumlu Bir Beyin Bilgisayar Arayüzünde Özellik Çıkarımı ve Sınıflandırma(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2016-10) Altindis, Fatih; Yilmaz, BulentBrain Computer Interface (BCI) technology is used to help patients who do not have control over motor neurons such as ALS or paralyzed patients, to communicate with outer world. This work aims to classify motor imageries using real-time EEG dataset, which was published by Graz University, Austria. The dataset consists of two-channel EEG signals of right-hand movement imagery and left-hand movement imagery of 8 subjects. There are a total of 120 motor imagery trials (60 left and 60 right) EEG signals recorded from each subject. EEG signals are filtered and feature vectors were extracted that consist of 24, 32 and 40 relative band power values (RBPV). In this work, feature vectors classified by three different methods, linear discriminant analysis (LDA), K nearest neighbor (KNN) and support vector machines (SVM). Results show that best performance was achieved by 24 RBPV feature vector and LDA classification method. © 2017 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
