Abstract
Fatigued driving is a leading cause of traffic accidents, and accurately predicting driver fatigue can significantly reduce their occurrence. However, modern fatigue detection models based on neural networks often face challenges such as poor interpretability and insufficient input feature dimensions. This article proposes a novel Spatial-Frequency-Temporal Network (SFT-Net) method for detecting driver fatigue using electroencephalogram (EEG) data. Our approach integrates EEG signals' spatial, frequency, and temporal information to improve recognition performance. We transform the differential entropy of five frequency bands of EEG signals into a 4D feature tensor to preserve these three types of information. An attention module is then used to recalibrate the spatial and frequency information of each input 4D feature tensor time slice. The output of this module is fed into a depthwise separable convolution (DSC) module, which extracts spatial and frequency features after attention fusion. Finally, long short-term memory (LSTM) is used to extract the temporal dependence of the sequence, and the final features are output through a linear layer. We validate the effectiveness of our model on the SEED-VIG dataset, and experimental results demonstrate that SFT-Net outperforms other popular models for EEG fatigue detection. Interpretability analysis supports the claim that our model has a certain level of interpretability. Our work addresses the challenge of detecting driver fatigue from EEG data and highlights the importance of integrating spatial, frequency, and temporal information.

[PMID: 38853446 PMCID: PMC11300402 DOI: 10.14802/jmd.24038] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/17/2024] [Accepted: 06/05/2024] [Indexed: 06/11/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Fatigue is a common, debilitating nonmotor symptom of Parkinson's disease (PD), but its mechanism is poorly understood. We aimed to determine whether electroencephalography (EEG) could objectively measure fatigue and to explore the pathophysiology of fatigue in PD. METHODS We studied 32 de novo PD patients who underwent EEG. We compared brain activity between 19 PD patients without fatigue and 13 PD patients with fatigue via EEG power spectra and graphs, including the global efficiency, characteristic path length, clustering coefficient, small-worldness, local efficiency, degree centrality, closeness centrality, and betweenness centrality. RESULTS No significant differences in absolute or relative power were detected between PD patients without or with fatigue (all p > 0.02, Bonferroni-corrected). According to our network analysis, brain network efficiency differed by frequency band. Generally, the brain network in the frontal area for theta and delta bands showed greater efficiency, and in the temporal area, the alpha1 band was less efficient in PD patients without fatigue (p < 0.0001, p = 0.0011, and p = 0.0007, respectively, Bonferroni-corrected). CONCLUSION Our study suggests that PD patients with fatigue have less efficient networks in the frontal area than PD patients without fatigue. These findings may explain why fatigue is common in PD, a frontostriatal disorder. Increased efficiency in the temporal area in PD patients with fatigue is assumed to be compensatory. Brain network analysis using graph theory is more valuable than power spectrum analysis in revealing the brain mechanism related to fatigue.

Abstract
Mental fatigue during driving poses significant risks to road safety, necessitating accurate assessment methods to mitigate potential hazards. This study explores the impact of individual variability in brain networks on driving fatigue assessment, hypothesizing that subject-specific connectivity patterns play a pivotal role in understanding fatigue dynamics. By conducting a linear regression analysis of subject-specific brain networks in different frequency bands, this research aims to elucidate the relationships between frequency-specific connectivity patterns and driving fatigue. As such, an EEG sustained driving simulation experiment was carried out, estimating individuals' brain networks using the Phase Lag Index (PLI) to capture shared connectivity patterns. The results unveiled notable variability in connectivity patterns across frequency bands, with the alpha band exhibiting heightened sensitivity to driving fatigue. Individualized connectivity analysis underscored the complexity of fatigue assessment and the potential for personalized approaches. These findings emphasize the importance of subject-specific brain networks in comprehending fatigue dynamics, while providing sensor space minimization, advocating for the development of efficient mobile sensor applications for real-time fatigue detection in driving scenarios.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Driving fatigue is a significant concern in contemporary society, contributing to a considerable number of traffic accidents annually. This study explores novel methods for fatigue detection, aiming to enhance driving safety. METHODS This study utilizes electroencephalography (EEG) and functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to monitor driver fatigue during simulated driving experiments lasting up to 7 h. RESULTS Analysis reveals a significant correlation between behavioral data and hemodynamic changes in the prefrontal lobe, particularly around the 4 h mark, indicating a critical period for driver performance decline. Despite a small participant cohort, the study's outcomes align closely with established fatigue standards for drivers. CONCLUSIONS By integrating fNIRS into non-voluntary attention brain function experiments, this research demonstrates promising efficacy in accurately detecting driving fatigue. These findings offer insights into fatigue dynamics and have implications for shaping effective safety measures and policies in various industrial settings.

Abstract
While it is well known that mental fatigue impairs fine motor performance, the investigation into its neural basis remains scant. Here, we investigate the impact of mental fatigue on fine motor performance and explore its underlying neural network connectivity mechanisms. A total of 24 healthy male university students were recruited and randomly divided into two groups: a mental fatigue group (MF) and a control group (Control). Both groups completed 50 dart throws, while electroencephalography (EEG) data were collected. Following the Stroop intervention, participants in the MF group exhibited a decrease in Stroop task accuracy and throwing performance, and an increase in reaction time along with VAS and NASA scores. The EEG data during dart-throwing revealed that the network connectivity strength of theta oscillations in the frontal and left central regions was significantly higher in the MF group compared with the Control group, while the network connectivity strength of alpha oscillations in the left parietal region was significantly enhanced. The interregional connectivity within the theta and alpha rhythm bands, particularly in the frontal-central-parietal network connections, also showed a significant increase in the MF group. Mental fatigue impairs dart throwing performance and is accompanied by increased connectivity in alpha and theta.

Abstract
To avoid traffic accidents, monitoring the driver's electroencephalogram (EEG) signals to assess drowsiness is an effective solution. However, aggregating the personal data of these drivers may lead to insufficient data usage and pose a risk of privacy breaches. To address these issues, a framework called Group Federated Learning (Group-FL) for large-scale driver drowsiness detection is proposed, which can efficiently utilize diverse client data while protecting privacy. First, by arranging the clients into different levels of groups and gradually aggregating their model parameters from low-level groups to high-level groups, communication and time costs are reduced. In addition, to solve the problem of notable variations in EEG signals among different clients, a global-personalized deep neural network is designed. The global model extracts shared features from various clients, while the personalized model extracts fine-grained features from each client and outputs classification results. Finally, to address special issues such as scale/category imbalance and data pollution, three checking modules are designed for adjusting grouping, evaluating client data, and effectively applying personalized models. Through extensive experimentation, the effectiveness of each component within the framework was validated, and a mean accuracy, F1-score, and Area Under Curve (AUC) of 81.0%, 82.0%, and 87.9% was achieved, respectively, on a publicly available dataset comprising 11 subjects.

Abstract
In order to achieve more sensitive mental fatigue assessment (MFA) based on an arbitrary channel EEG, this study proposed a series of feature extraction methods that combine mathematical morphology (MM), as well as an LSTM-CNN architecture. Firstly, 37 subjects had their resting-state EEGs collected at rested wakefulness (RW) and after 24 h of sleep deprivation (SD) using a 30-channel EEG acquisition device, the RW and SD groups were regarded as the negative and positive groups of mental fatigue, respectively, and the EEG collection were further categorized into two conditions: eye-opened state (EO) and eye-closed state (EC). Then, since MM can reflect the morphological characteristics of EEG rhythms and their potentials relatively independently of the time-frequency analysis and phase calculation, the MM methods were found to better reflect the mental fatigue after SD statistically, whether for single features (ANOVA: p<0.000001), multiple features (clustering by K-means, t-test: p<0.01), or time series feature spaces (calculating CD, t-test: p<0.01) of a single channel. Finally, the LSTM-CNN enhanced the generalization ability when dealing with different single-channel EEG by combining GRUs with convolutional layers: comparing the AUCs of different architectures for MFA based on an arbitrary channel, LSTM-CNN (0.992) > LSTM network (0.94) > CNN (0.831) > MLP (0.754). Moreover, the use of MM also improved the accuracy of analyzed architectures, and the true/false positive rate (TPR/FPR) of the LSTM-CNN architecture for MFA based on an arbitrary channel reached 97.024 %/3.497 %, which provided a feasible solution for the arbitrary channel EEG-based MFA.

Abstract
Electroencephalography (EEG) is a complex signal that may require several years of training, advanced signal processing, and feature extraction methodologies to interpret correctly. Recently, many methods have been used to extract and classify EEG data. This study reviews 62 papers that used EEG signals to detect driver drowsiness, published between January 2018 and 2022. We extract trends and highlight interesting approaches from this large body of literature to inform future research and formulate recommendations. To find relevant papers published in scientific journals, conferences, and electronic preprint repositories, researchers searched major databases covering the domains of science and engineering. For each investigation, many data items about (1) the data, (2) the channels used, (3) the extraction and classification procedure, and (4) the outcomes were extracted. These items were then analyzed one by one to uncover trends. Our analysis reveals that the amount of EEG data used across studies varies. We saw that more than half the studies used simulation driving experimental. About 21% of the studies used support vector machine (SVM), while 19% used convolutional neural networks (CNN). Overall, we can conclude that drowsiness and fatigue impair driving performance, resulting in drivers who are more exposed to risky situations.

Abstract
Background The convolutional neural network (CNN) is a mainstream deep learning (DL) algorithm, and it has gained great fame in solving problems from clinical examination and diagnosis, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). AD is a degenerative disease difficult to clinical diagnosis due to its unclear underlying pathological mechanism. Previous studies have primarily focused on investigating structural abnormalities in the brain's functional networks related to the AD or proposing different deep learning approaches for AD classification. Objective The aim of this study is to leverage the advantages of combining brain topological features extracted from functional network exploration and deep features extracted by the CNN. We establish a novel fMRI-based classification framework that utilizes Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) with the phase synchronization index (PSI) and 2D-CNN to detect abnormal brain functional connectivity in AD. Methods First, PSI was applied to construct the brain network by region of interest (ROI) signals obtained from data preprocessing stage, and eight topological features were extracted. Subsequently, the 2D-CNN was applied to the PSI matrix to explore the local and global patterns of the network connectivity by extracting eight deep features from the 2D-CNN convolutional layer. Results Finally, classification analysis was carried out on the combined PSI and 2D-CNN methods to recognize AD by using support vector machine (SVM) with 5-fold cross-validation strategy. It was found that the classification accuracy of combined method achieved 98.869%. Conclusion These findings show that our framework can adaptively combine the best brain network features to explore network synchronization, functional connections, and characterize brain functional abnormalities, which could effectively detect AD anomalies by the extracted features that may provide new insights into exploring the underlying pathogenesis of AD.

Abstract
Deep neural networks have recently been successfully extended to EEG-based driving fatigue detection. Nevertheless, most existing models fail to reveal the intrinsic inter-channel relations that are known to be beneficial for EEG-based classification. Additionally, these models require substantial data for training, which is often impractical due to the high cost of data collection. To simultaneously address these two issues, we propose a Self-Attentive Channel-Connectivity Capsule Network (SACC-CapsNet) for EEG-based driving fatigue detection in this paper. SACC-CapsNet starts with a temporal-channel attention module to investigate the critical temporal information and important channels for driving fatigue detection, refining the input EEG signals. Subsequently, the refined EEG data are transformed into a channel covariance matrix to capture the inter-channel relations, followed by selective kernel attention to extract the highly discriminative channel-connectivity features. Finally, a capsule neural network is employed to effectively learn the relationships between connectivity features, which is more suitable for limited data. To confirm the effectiveness of SACC-CapsNet, we collected 24-channel EEG data from 31 subjects (mean age=23.13±2.68 years, male/female=18/13) in a simulated fatigue driving environment. Extensive experiments were conducted with the acquired data, and the comparison results show that our proposed model outperforms state-of-the-art methods. Additionally, the channel covariance matrix learned from SACC-CapsNet reveals that the frontal pole is most informative for detecting driving fatigue, followed by the parietal and central regions. Intriguingly, the temporal-channel attention module can enhance the significance of these critical regions, and the reconstructed channel covariance matrix generated by the decoder network of SACC-CapsNet can effectively preserve valuable information about them.

Abstract
Fatigue driving is one of the major factors that leads to traffic accidents. Long-term monotonous driving can easily cause a decrease in the driver's attention and vigilance, manifesting a fatigue effect. This paper proposes a means of revealing the effects of driving fatigue on the brain's information processing abilities, from the aspect of a directed brain network based on electroencephalogram (EEG) source signals. Based on current source density (CSD) data derived from EEG signals using source analysis, a directed brain network for fatigue driving was constructed by using a directed transfer function. As driving time increased, the average clustering coefficient as well as the average path length gradually increased; meanwhile, global efficiency gradually decreased for most rhythms, suggesting that deep driving fatigue enhances the brain's local information integration abilities while weakening its global abilities. Furthermore, causal flow analysis showed electrodes with significant differences between the awake state and the driving fatigue state, which were mainly distributed in several areas of the anterior and posterior regions, especially under the theta rhythm. It was also found that the ability of the anterior regions to receive information from the posterior regions became significantly worse in the driving fatigue state. These findings may provide a theoretical basis for revealing the underlying neural mechanisms of driving fatigue.

Abstract
The study is focused on applying ex-Gaussian parameters of eye-tracking and cognitive measures in the classification process of cognitive workload level. A computerised version of the digit symbol substitution test has been developed in order to perform the case study. The dataset applied in the study is a collection of variables related to eye-tracking: saccades, fixations and blinks, as well as test-related variables including response time and correct response number. The application of ex-Gaussian modelling to all collected data was beneficial in the context of detection of dissimilarity in groups. An independent classification approach has been applied in the study. Several classical classification methods have been invoked in the process. The overall classification accuracy reached almost 96%. Furthermore, the interpretable machine learning model based on logistic regression was adapted in order to calculate the ranking of the most valuable features, which allowed us to examine their importance.

Abstract
It has been shown that brain functional networks constructed from electroencephalographic signals (EEG) continuously change topology as brain fatigue increases, and extracting the topological properties of the network can characterize the degree of brain fatigue. However, the traditional brain function network construction process often selects only the amplitude or phase components of the signal to measure the relationship between brain regions, and the use of a single component of the signal to construct a brain function network for analysis is rather one-sided. Therefore, we propose a method of functional synchronization analysis of brain regions. This method takes the EEG signal based on empirical modal decomposition (EMD) to obtain multiple intrinsic modal components (IMF) and inputs them into the Hilbert transform to obtain the instantaneous amplitude, and then calculates the amplitude locking value (ALV) to measure the synchronization relationship between all pairs of channels. The topological properties of the brain functional network are extracted to classify awake and fatigue states. The brain functional network is constructed based on the adjacency matrix of each waveform obtained from the ALV between all pairs of channels to realize the synchronization analysis between brain regions. Moreover, we achieved a satisfactory classification accuracy (82.84%) using the discriminative connection features in the Alpha band. In this study, we analyzed the functional network of ALV brain in fatigue and awake state, and the results showed that the connections between brain regions in fatigue state were significantly increased, and the connections between brain regions in the awake state were significantly decreased, and the information interaction between brain regions was more orderly and efficient.

Abstract
Objectives The objective of this study was to investigate common functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) features of mental fatigue induced by different tasks. In addition to distinguishing fatigue from non-fatigue state, the early signs of fatigue were also studied so as to give an early warning of fatigue. Methods fNIRS data from 36 participants were used to investigate the common character of functional connectivity network corresponding to mental fatigue, which was induced by psychomotor vigilance test (PVT), cognitive work, or simulated driving. To analyze the network reorganizations quantitatively, clustering coefficient, characteristic path length, and small worldness were calculated in five sub-bands (0.6-2.0, 0.145-0.600, 0.052-0.145, 0.021-0.052, and 0.005-0.021 Hz). Moreover, we applied a random forest method to classify three fatigue states. Results In a moderate fatigue state: the functional connectivity strength between brain regions increased overall in 0.021-0.052 Hz, and an asymmetrical pattern of connectivity (right hemisphere > left hemisphere) was presented. In 0.052-0.145 Hz, the connectivity strength decreased overall, the clustering coefficient decreased, and the characteristic path length increased significantly. In severe fatigue state: in 0.021-0.052 Hz, the brain network began to deviate from a small-world pattern. The classification accuracy of fatigue and non-fatigue was 85.4%. The classification accuracy of moderate fatigue and severe fatigue was 82.8%. Conclusion The preliminary research demonstrates the feasibility of detecting mental fatigue induced by different tasks, by applying the functional network features of cerebral hemoglobin signal. This universal and robust method has the potential to detect early signs of mental fatigue and prevent relative human error in various working environments.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Drowsiness is one of the main contributors to road-related crashes and fatalities worldwide. To address this pressing global issue, researchers are continuing to develop driver drowsiness detection systems that use a variety of measures. However, most research on drowsiness detection uses approaches based on a singular metric and, as a result, fail to attain satisfactory reliability and validity to be implemented in vehicles. METHOD This study examines the utility of drowsiness detection based on singular and a hybrid approach. This approach considered a range of metrics from three physiological signals - electroencephalography (EEG), electrooculography (EOG), and electrocardiography (ECG) - and used subjective sleepiness indices (assessed via the Karolinska Sleepiness Scale) as ground truth. The methodology consisted of signal recording with a psychomotor vigilance test (PVT), pre-processing, extracting, and determining the important features from the physiological signals for drowsiness detection. Finally, four supervised machine learning models were developed based on the subjective sleepiness responses using the extracted physiological features to detect drowsiness levels. RESULTS The results illustrate that the singular physiological measures show a specific performance metric pattern, with higher sensitivity and lower specificity or vice versa. In contrast, the hybrid biosignal-based models provide a better performance profile, reducing the disparity between the two metrics. CONCLUSIONS The outcome of the study indicates that the selected features provided higher performance in the hybrid approaches than the singular approaches, which could be useful for future research implications. Practical Applications: Use of a hybrid approach seems warranted to improve in-vehicle driver drowsiness detection system. Practical applications will need to consider factors such as intrusiveness, ergonomics, cost-effectiveness, and user-friendliness of any driver drowsiness detection system.

Abstract
This study investigates intra-regional connectivity and regional hemispheric asymmetry under two vigilance states: alertness and vigilance decrement. The vigilance states were induced on nine healthy subjects while performing 30 min in-congruent Stroop color-word task (I-SCWT). We measured brain activity using Electroencephalography (EEG) signals with 64-channels. We quantified the regional network connectivity using the phase-locking value (PLV) with graph theory analysis (GTA) and Support Vector Machines (SVM). Results showed that the vigilance decrement state was associated with impaired information processing within the frontal and central regions in delta and theta frequency bands. Meanwhile, the hemispheric asymmetry results showed that the laterality shifted to the right-temporal in delta, right-central, parietal, and left frontal in theta, right-frontal and left-central, temporal and parietal in alpha, and right-parietal and left temporal in beta frequency bands. These findings represent the first demonstration of intra-regional connectivity and hemispheric asymmetry changes as a function of cognitive vigilance states. The overall results showed that vigilance decrement is region and frequency band-specific. Our SVM model achieved the highest classification accuracy of 99.73% in differentiating between the two vigilance states based on the frontal and central connectivity networks measures.

Abstract
The interaction of acute exercise and the central nervous system evokes increasing interest in interdisciplinary research fields of neuroscience. Novel approaches allow to monitor large-scale brain networks from mobile electroencephalography (EEG) applying graph theory, but it is yet uncertain whether brain graphs extracted after exercise are reliable. We therefore aimed to investigate brain graph reliability extracted from resting state EEG data before and after submaximal exercise twice within one week in male participants. To obtain graph measures, we extracted global small-world-index (SWI), clustering coefficient (CC) and characteristic path length (PL) based on weighted phase leg index (wPLI) and spectral coherence (Coh) calculation. For reliability analysis, Intraclass-Correlation-Coefficient (ICC) and Coefficient of Variation (CoV) were computed for graph measures before (REST) and after POST) exercise. Overall results revealed poor to excellent measures at PRE and good to excellent ICCs at POST in the theta, alpha-1 and alpha-2, beta-1 and beta-2 frequency band. Based on bootstrap-analysis, a positive effect of exercise on reliability of wPLI based measures was observed, while exercise induced a negative effect on reliability of Coh-based graph measures. Findings indicate that brain graphs are a reliable tool to analyze brain networks in exercise contexts, which might be related to the neuroregulating effect of exercise inducing functional connections within the connectome. Relative and absolute reliability demonstrated good to excellent reliability after exercise. Chosen graph measures may not only allow analysis of acute, but also longitudinal studies in exercise-scientific contexts.

Abstract
Cognitive workload, being a quantitative measure of mental effort, draws significant interest of researchers, as it allows to monitor the state of mental fatigue. Estimation of cognitive workload becomes especially important for job positions requiring outstanding engagement and responsibility, e.g., air-traffic dispatchers, pilots, car or train drivers. Cognitive workload estimation finds its applications also in the field of education material preparation. It allows to monitor the difficulty degree for specific tasks enabling to adjust the level of education materials to typical abilities of students. In this study, we present the results of research conducted with the goal of examining the influence of various fuzzy or non-fuzzy aggregation functions upon the quality of cognitive workload estimation. Various classic machine learning models were successfully applied to the problem. The results of extensive in-depth experiments with over 2000 aggregation operators shows the applicability of the approach based on the aggregation functions. Moreover, the approach based on aggregation process allows for further improvement of classification results. A wide range of aggregation functions is considered and the results suggest that the combination of classical machine learning models and aggregation methods allows to achieve high quality of cognitive workload level recognition preserving low computational cost.

Abstract
Detecting drowsiness in drivers, especially multi-level drowsiness, is a difficult problem that is often approached using neurophysiological signals as the basis for building a reliable system. In this context, electroencephalogram (EEG) signals are the most important source of data to achieve successful detection. In this paper, we first review EEG signal features used in the literature for a variety of tasks, then we focus on reviewing the applications of EEG features and deep learning approaches in driver drowsiness detection, and finally we discuss the open challenges and opportunities in improving driver drowsiness detection based on EEG. We show that the number of studies on driver drowsiness detection systems has increased in recent years and that future systems need to consider the wide variety of EEG signal features and deep learning approaches to increase the accuracy of detection.

Abstract
Applications of neuroimaging methods have substantially contributed to the scientific understanding of human factors during driving by providing a deeper insight into the neuro-cognitive aspects of driver brain. This has been achieved by conducting simulated (and occasionally, field) driving experiments while collecting driver brain signals of various types. Here, this sector of studies is comprehensively reviewed at both macro and micro scales. At the macro scale, bibliometric aspects of these studies are analysed. At the micro scale, different themes of neuroimaging driving behaviour research are identified and the findings within each theme are synthesised. The surveyed literature has reported on applications of four major brain imaging methods. These include Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI), Electroencephalography (EEG), Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) and Magnetoencephalography (MEG), with the first two being the most common methods in this domain. While collecting driver fMRI signal has been particularly instrumental in studying neural correlates of intoxicated driving (e.g. alcohol or cannabis) or distracted driving, the EEG method has been predominantly utilised in relation to the efforts aiming at development of automatic fatigue/drowsiness detection systems, a topic to which the literature on neuro-ergonomics of driving particularly has shown a spike of interest within the last few years. The survey also reveals that topics such as driver brain activity in semi-automated settings or neural activity of drivers with brain injuries or chronic neurological conditions have by contrast been investigated to a very limited extent. Potential topics in driving behaviour research are identified that could benefit from the adoption of neuroimaging methods in future studies. In terms of practicality, while fMRI and MEG experiments have proven rather invasive and technologically challenging for adoption in driving behaviour research, EEG and fNIRS applications have been more diverse. They have even been tested beyond simulated driving settings, in field driving experiments. Advantages and limitations of each of these four neuroimaging methods in the context of driving behaviour experiments are outlined in the paper.

Abstract
Subjective effort can significantly affect the ability of humans to act optimally in dynamic manipulation tasks. In a previous study, we designed a complex object coupling manipulation task that required tight performance and induced high cognitive workload. We hypothesize that strong-effort-related physiological reactivity during the dynamic manipulation task improves the user performance in an undesired task feedback situation. To test this hypothesis, using the motor intentions' discrimination from electroencephalogram (EEG) measurements, we evaluate the effort expended by 20 participants in a controlling task with constraints involving complex coupling objects. Specifically, the finer motor decisions are obtained from the controlling information in EEG by using two fingers from the same hand rather than two hands. The motor intention is decoded from a task-dependent EEG through a regularized discriminant analysis, and the area under the curve is [Formula: see text]. Furthermore, we compare the undesired and desired task feedback conditions along with the individual's effort dynamic adjustment, and investigate whether the undesired task feedback improved the discrimination of the motor activities. A stronger effort to attain the desired feedback state corresponds to improved motor activity discrimination from the EEG in the undesired task feedback scenario. The differences in the brain activities under the undesired and desired task feedback conditions are analyzed using brain-network-based topographical scalp maps. Our experiment provides preliminary evidence that inducing strong effort can improve discrimination performance during highly demanding tasks. This finding can advance our understanding of human attention, potentially improve the accuracy of intention recognition, and may inspire better EEG acquisition contexts.

Abstract
The paper is focussed on the assessment of cognitive workload level using selected machine learning models. In the study, eye-tracking data were gathered from 29 healthy volunteers during examination with three versions of the computerised version of the digit symbol substitution test (DSST). Understanding cognitive workload is of great importance in analysing human mental fatigue and the performance of intellectual tasks. It is also essential in the context of explanation of the brain cognitive process. Eight three-class classification machine learning models were constructed and analysed. Furthermore, the technique of interpretable machine learning model was applied to obtain the measures of feature importance and its contribution to the brain cognitive functions. The measures allowed improving the quality of classification, simultaneously lowering the number of applied features to six or eight, depending on the model. Moreover, the applied method of explainable machine learning provided valuable insights into understanding the process accompanying various levels of cognitive workload. The main classification performance metrics, such as F1, recall, precision, accuracy, and the area under the Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC AUC) were used in order to assess the quality of classification quantitatively. The best result obtained on the complete feature set was as high as 0.95 (F1); however, feature importance interpretation allowed increasing the result up to 0.97 with only seven of 20 features applied.

Abstract
Driver sleepiness is a major contributor to road crashes. A system that monitors and warns the driver at a certain, critical level of arousal, could aid in reducing sleep-related crashes. To determine how driver sleepiness detection systems perform, a systematic review of the sensitivity and specificity outcomes was performed. In total, 21 studies were located that met inclusion criteria for the review. The range of sensitivity outcomes was between 39.0-98.8 % and between 73.0-98.9 % for specificity outcomes. There was considerable variation in the outcomes of the studies employing only one physiological measure (mono-signal approach), whereas, a poly-signal approach with multiple physiological signals resulted in more consistency with higher outcomes on both sensitivity and specificity metrics. Only six of the 21 studies had both sensitivity and specificity outcomes above 90.0 %, which included mono- and poly-signal approaches. Moreover, increases in the number of features used in the sleepiness detection system did not result in higher sensitivity and specificity outcomes. Overall, there was considerable variability between the studies reviewed, including measures of ground truth, the features employed and the machine learning approach of the systems. A critical need for progressing any system is a revalidation of the system on a new sample of users. These aspects indicate considerable progress is needed with physiological-based driver sleepiness systems before they are at a sufficient standard to be deployed on-road.

Abstract
Unfavorable driving states can cause a large number of vehicle crashes and are significant factors in leading to traffic accidents. Hence, the aim of this research is to design a robust system to detect unfavorable driving states based on sample entropy feature analysis and multiple classification algorithms. Multi-channel Electroencephalography (EEG) signals are recorded from 16 participants while performing two types of driving tasks. For the purpose of selecting optimal feature sets for classification, principal component analysis (PCA) is adopted for reducing dimensionality of feature sets. Multiple classification algorithms, namely, K nearest neighbor (KNN), decision tree (DT), support vector machine (SVM) and logistic regression (LR) are employed to improve the accuracy of unfavorable driving state detection. We use 10-fold cross-validation to assess the performance of the proposed systems. It is found that the proposed detection system, based on PCA features and the cubic SVM classification algorithm, shows robustness as it obtains the highest accuracy of 97.81%, sensitivity of 96.93%, specificity of 98.73% and precision of 98.75%. Experimental results show that the system we designed can effectively monitor unfavorable driving states.

Abstract
Drowsiness is a leading cause of traffic and industrial accidents, costing lives and productivity. Electroencephalography (EEG) signals can reflect awareness and attentiveness, and low-cost consumer EEG headsets are available on the market. The use of these devices as drowsiness detectors could increase the accessibility of safety and productivity-enhancing devices for small businesses and developing countries. We conducted a systemic review of currently available, low-cost, consumer EEG-based drowsiness detection systems. We sought to determine whether consumer EEG headsets could be reliably utilized as rudimentary drowsiness detection systems. We included documented cases describing successful drowsiness detection using consumer EEG-based devices, including the Neurosky MindWave, InteraXon Muse, Emotiv Epoc, Emotiv Insight, and OpenBCI. Of 46 relevant studies, ~27 reported an accuracy score. The lowest of these was the Neurosky Mindwave, with a minimum of 31%. The second lowest accuracy reported was 79.4% with an OpenBCI study. In many cases, algorithmic optimization remains necessary. Different methods for accuracy calculation, system calibration, and different definitions of drowsiness made direct comparisons problematic. However, even basic features, such as the power spectra of EEG bands, were able to consistently detect drowsiness. Each specific device has its own capabilities, tradeoffs, and limitations. Widely used spectral features can achieve successful drowsiness detection, even with low-cost consumer devices; however, reliability issues must still be addressed in an occupational context.

Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a major branch of computer science that is fruitfully used for analyzing complex medical data and extracting meaningful relationships in datasets, for several clinical aims. Specifically, in the brain care domain, several innovative approaches have achieved remarkable results and open new perspectives in terms of diagnosis, planning, and outcome prediction. In this work, we present an overview of different artificial intelligent techniques used in the brain care domain, along with a review of important clinical applications. A systematic and careful literature search in major databases such as Pubmed, Scopus, and Web of Science was carried out using "artificial intelligence" and "brain" as main keywords. Further references were integrated by cross-referencing from key articles. 155 studies out of 2696 were identified, which actually made use of AI algorithms for different purposes (diagnosis, surgical treatment, intra-operative assistance, and postoperative assessment). Artificial neural networks have risen to prominent positions among the most widely used analytical tools. Classic machine learning approaches such as support vector machine and random forest are still widely used. Task-specific algorithms are designed for solving specific problems. Brain images are one of the most used data types. AI has the possibility to improve clinicians' decision-making ability in neuroscience applications. However, major issues still need to be addressed for a better practical use of AI in the brain. To this aim, it is important to both gather comprehensive data and build explainable AI algorithms.

Using Electroencephalography (EEG) Power Responses to Investigate the Effects of Ambient Oxygen Content, Safety Shoe Type, and Lifting Frequency on the Worker's Activities. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2020; 2020:7956037. [PMID: 32337279 PMCID: PMC7160726 DOI: 10.1155/2020/7956037] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2019] [Revised: 02/07/2020] [Accepted: 03/23/2020] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Objective The study assesses the changes in electroencephalography (EEG) power spectral density of individuals in hypoxia when wearing a different type of safety shoes under different lifting frequencies. It also assesses the EEG response behavior induced via the process of lifting loads related to these variables. Methods The study was conducted in two consecutive phases: training and acclimatization phase and experimental lifting phase. Ten male college students participated in this study. A four-way repeated measures design was used in this research with independent variables: ambient oxygen content (“15%, 18%, and 20%”), safety shoes type (“light-duty, medium-duty, and heavy-duty”), lifting frequency (“1 and 4 lifts/min”), and replication (“first and second”). And the dependent variables were alpha, theta, beta, gamma, θ/α, θ/β, α/β, β/α, (θ + α)/β, and (θ + α)/(α + β). The participant was allowed to determine his maximum acceptable weight of lift (MAWL) in fifteen minutes of lifting using psychophysically technique. Then, he continued lifting the MAWL for another five minutes, where all the data were collected. Results Results showed that the EEG responses at lower levels of the independent variables were significantly high than at higher levels; except for oxygen content, the EEG responses at lower levels were considerably lower than at a higher level. It also showed that an upsurge in the physical demand increased lifting frequency and replication and caused decreasing in alpha power, theta/beta, alpha/beta, (theta + alpha)/beta, (theta + alpha)/(alpha + beta) and increasing in the theta power and the gamma power. Furthermore, several interactions among independent variables had significant effects on the EEG responses. Conclusion The EEG implementation for the investigation of neural responses to physical demands allows for the possibility of newer nontraditional and faster methods of human performance monitoring. These methods provide effective and reliable results as compared to other traditional methods. This study will safeguard the physical capabilities and possible health risks of industrial workers. And the applications of these tasks can occur in almost all working environments (factories, warehouses, airports, building sites, farms, hospitals, offices, etc.) that are at high altitudes. It can include lifting boxes at a packaging line, handling construction materials, handling patients in hospitals, and cleaning.

Abstract
In this paper, we present a method to quantify the coupling between brain regions under vigilance and enhanced mental states by utilizing partial directed coherence (PDC) and graph theory analysis (GTA). The vigilance state is induced using a modified version of stroop color-word task (SCWT) while the enhancement state is based on audio stimulation with a pure tone of 250 Hz. The audio stimulation was presented to the right and left ears simultaneously for one-hour while participants perform the SCWT. The quantification of mental states was performed by means of statistical analysis of indexes based on GTA, behavioral responses of time-on-task (TOT), and Brunel Mood Scale (BRMUS). The results show that PDC is very sensitive to vigilance decrement and shows that the brain connectivity network is significantly reduced with increasing TOT, p < 0.05. Meanwhile, during the enhanced state, the connectivity network maintains high connectivity as time passes and shows significant improvements compared to vigilance state. The audio stimulation enhances the connectivity network over the frontal and parietal regions and the right hemisphere. The increase in the connectivity network correlates with individual differences in the magnitude of the vigilance enhancement assessed by response time to stimuli. Our results provide evidence for enhancement of cognitive processing efficiency with audio stimulation. The BRMUS was used to evaluate the emotional states of vigilance task before and after using the audio stimulation. BRMUS factors, such as fatigue, depression, and anger, significantly decrease in the enhancement group compared to vigilance group. On the other hand, happy and calmness factors increased with audio stimulation, p < 0.05.

Abstract
Evaluation of cognitive workload finds its application in many areas, from educational program assessment through professional driver health examination to monitoring the mental state of people carrying out jobs of high responsibility, such as pilots or airline traffic dispatchers. Estimation of multilevel cognitive workload is a task usually realized in a subject-dependent way, while the present research is focused on developing the procedure of subject-independent evaluation of cognitive workload level. The aim of the paper is to estimate cognitive workload level in accordance with subject-independent approach, applying classical machine learning methods combined with feature selection techniques. The procedure of data acquisition was based on registering the EEG signal of the person performing arithmetical tasks divided into six intervals of advancement. The analysis included the stages of preprocessing, feature extraction, and selection, while the final step covered multiclass classification performed with several models. The results discussed show high maximal accuracies achieved: ~91% for both the validation dataset and for the cross-validation approach for kNN model.

Abstract
Rapid and accurate detection of driver fatigue is of great significance to improve traffic safety. In the present work, we propose the man-machine response mode (MRM) to relieve driver fatigue caused by long-term driving. In this paper, the characteristics of the complex brain network, which can effectively reflect brain activity information, were used to detect the change of driving fatigue over time. Combined with the traditional eye movement characteristics and a subjective questionnaire (SQ), the changes in driving fatigue characteristics were comprehensively analyzed. The results show that driving fatigue can be effectively delayed using the MRM. Additionally, the response equipment is low in cost and practical, so it will be practical to use in actual driving situations in the future.
