Comprehensive Analysis of Feature Extraction Methods for Emotion Recognition from Multichannel EEG Recordings

Advances in signal processing and machine learning have expedited electroencephalogram (EEG)-based emotion recognition research, and numerous EEG signal features have been investigated to detect or characterize human emotions. However, most studies in this area have used relatively small monocentric data and focused on a limited range of EEG features, making it difficult to compare the utility of different sets of EEG features for emotion recognition. This study addressed that by comparing the classification accuracy (performance) of a comprehensive range of EEG feature sets for identifying emotional states, in terms of valence and arousal. The classification accuracy of five EEG feature sets were investigated, including statistical features, fractal dimension (FD), Hjorth parameters, higher order spectra (HOS), and those derived using wavelet analysis. Performance was evaluated using two classifier methods, support vector machine (SVM) and classification and regression tree (CART), across five independent and publicly available datasets linking EEG to emotional states: MAHNOB-HCI, DEAP, SEED, AMIGOS, and DREAMER. The FD-CART feature-classification method attained the best mean classification accuracy for valence (85.06%) and arousal (84.55%) across the five datasets. The stability of these findings across the five different datasets also indicate that FD features derived from EEG data are reliable for emotion recognition. The results may lead to the possible development of an online feature extraction framework, thereby enabling the development of an EEG-based emotion recognition system in real time.

A framework for automated bone age assessment from digital hand radiographs

Bone age assessment (BAA) is a method or technique that helps in predicting the age of a person whose age is unavailable and can also be used to find growth disorders if any. The automated bone age assessment system (ABAA) depends heavily on the efficiency of the feature extraction stage and the accuracy of a successive classification stage of the system. This paper has presented the implementation and analysis of feature extraction methods like Bag of features (BoF), Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG), and Texture Feature Analysis (TFA) methods on the segmented phalangeal region of interest (PROI) images and segmented radius-ulna region of interest (RUROI) images. Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) and Random Forest classifiers are used for evaluating classification problems. The experimental results obtained by BoF method for feature extraction along with Random Forest for classification have outperformed preceding techniques available in the literature. The mean error (ME) accomplished is 0.58 years and RMSE value of 0.77 years for PROI images and mean error of 0.53 years and RMSE of 0.72 years was achieved for RUROI images. Additionally results also proved that prior knowledge of gender of the person gives better results. The dataset contains radiographs of the left hand for an age range of 0-18 years.

Analysis of Feature Extraction Methods for Prediction of 30-Day Hospital Readmissions.

This article aims to determine possible improvements made by feature extraction methods to the machine learning prediction methods for predicting 30-day hospital readmissions. The study evaluates five feature extraction methods including principal component analysis (PCA), kernel principal component analysis (KPCA), isomap, Laplacian eigenmaps, and locality preserving projections (LPPs) for improving the accuracy of nine machine learning prediction methods in predicting 30-day hospital readmissions. The specific prediction methods considered include logistic regression, Cox regression, linear discriminant analysis, k-nearest neighbor (KNN), support vector machines (SVMs), bagged trees, boosted trees, random forest, and artificial neural networks. All models are developed in MATLAB and validated using area under the curve based on two population-based data sets from partner hospitals. Laplacian eigenmaps and isomap feature extraction provide the most improvement to the readmission predictive accuracy of KNN, SVM, bagged trees, boosted trees, and linear discriminant analysis methods. The results for artificial neural networks, random forest, Cox regression, and logistic regression show improvement for only one of the data sets. Also, PCA and LPP provided the best computation efficiency followed by KPCA, Laplacian eigenmaps, and isomap. Feature extraction methods can improve the predictive performance of machine learning methods for predicting readmissions. However, the improvement depended on the specific choice of the prediction method, feature extraction method, and the complexity of the data set features.

Comparative analysis of feature extraction methods in satellite imagery

Feature extraction techniques are extensively being used in satellite imagery and getting impressive attention for remote sensing applications. The state-of-the-art feature extraction methods are appropriate according to the categories and structures of the objects to be detected. Based on distinctive computations of each feature extraction method, different types of images are selected to evaluate the performance of the methods, such as binary robust invariant scalable keypoints (BRISK), scale-invariant feature transform, speeded-up robust features (SURF), features from accelerated segment test (FAST), histogram of oriented gradients, and local binary patterns. Total computational time is calculated to evaluate the speed of each feature extraction method. The extracted features are counted under shadow regions and preprocessed shadow regions to compare the functioning of each method. We have studied the combination of SURF with FAST and BRISK individually and found very promising results with an increased number of features and less computational time. Finally, feature matching is conferred for all methods.

구개열 환자 발음 판별을 위한 특징 추출 방법 분석

This paper presents an analysis of feature extraction methods used for distinguishing the speech of patients with cleft palates and people with normal palates. This research is a basic study on the development of a software system for automatic recognition and restoration of speech disorders, in pursuit of improving the welfare of speech disabled persons. Monosyllable voice data for experiments were collected for three groups: normal speech, cleft palate speech, and simulated clef palate speech. The data consists of 14 basic Korean consonants, 5 complex consonants, and 7 vowels. Feature extractions are performed using three well-known methods: LPC, MFCC, and PLP. The pattern recognition process is executed using the acoustic model GMM. From our experiments, we concluded that the MFCC method is generally the most effective way to identify speech distortions. These results may contribute to the automatic detection and correction of the distorted speech of cleft palate patients, along with the development of an identification tool for levels of speech distortion.

Comparative Analysis of Feature Extraction Methods of Malware Detection

Recent years have encountered massive growth in malwares which poses a severe threat to modern computers and internet security. Existing malware detection systems are confronting with unknown malware variants. Recently developed malware detection systems investigated that the diverse forms of malware exhibit similar patterns in their structure with minor variations.

We mainly focus on the categorization of features based on malware analysis. This paper highlights general framework of malware detection system and pinpoints strengths and weaknesses of each method. Finally we presented overview of performance of present malware detection systems based on features.

Comparative Analysis of Feature Extraction Methods for Optic Disc Detection

Medical image analysis and processing has great significance in the field of medicine, especially in non-invasive treatment and clinical study. Normally fundus images are manually graded by specially trained clinicians in a time-consuming and resource-intensive process. A computer assisted fundus image analysis could provide an immediate detection and characterization of retinal features prior to ophthalmologist's inspection. Optic Disc (OD) or Optic Nerve Head (ONH) is relevant anatomical eye structure to diagnose various diseases such as Glaucoma, Cardiovascular diseases, Diabetic retinopathy in its advanced stages. Extraction of OD in retinal fundus image is also helpful in image registration and serves as landmark for other retinal feature localization like macula. This paper gives the brief survey of current OD detection methods with limitations and challenges.
