title: Single-channel EEG-based mental fatigue detection based on deep belief network.
abstract: Mental fatigue has a pernicious influence on road and work place safety as well as a negative symptom of many acute and chronic illnesses, since the ability of concentrating, responding and judging quickly decreases during the fatigue or drowsiness stage. Electroencephalography (EEG) has been proven to be a robust physiological indicator of human cognitive state over the last few decades. But most existing EEG-based fatigue detection methods have poor performance in accuracy. This paper proposed a single-channel EEG-based mental fatigue detection method based on Deep Belief Network (DBN). The fused nonliear features from specified sub-bands and dynamic analysis, a total of 21 features are extracted as the input of the DBN to discriminate three classes of mental state including alert, slight fatigue and severe fatigue. Experimental results show the good performance of the proposed model comparing with those state-of-art methods.
