Determination and classification of human stress index using nonparametric analysis of EEG signals / Norizam Sulaiman

Regardless of type of stress, either mental stress, emotional stress or physical stress, it definitely affects human lifestyle and work performance. There are two prominent methods in assessing stress which are psychological assessment (qualitative method) and physiological assessment (quantitative...

description Regardless of type of stress, either mental stress, emotional stress or physical stress, it definitely affects human lifestyle and work performance. There are two prominent methods in assessing stress which are psychological assessment (qualitative method) and physiological assessment (quantitative method). This research proposes a new stress index based on Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals and non-parametric analysis of the signals. In non-parametric method, the EEG features that might relate to stress are extracted in term of Asymmetry Ratio (AR), Relative Energy Ratio (RER), Spectral Centroids (SC) and Spectral Entropy (SE). The selected features are fed to the k-Nearest Neighbor (k- NN) classifier to identify the stressed group among the four experimental groups being tested. The classification results are based on accuracy, sensitivity and specificity. To support the classification results using k-NN classifier, the clustering techniques using Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) and Fuzzy K-Means (FKM) are implemented. To ensure the robustness of the classifier, the cross-validation technique using k-fold and leave-oneout is performed to the classifier…
