    Area of Science:

    • Neuroscience
    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Machine Learning

    Background:

    • Effective pain management requires accurate assessment.
    • Objective measures complement subjective pain reports by revealing neurophysiological underpinnings.
    • Current methods for pain quantification using electroencephalography (EEG) have limitations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a robust machine learning approach for objective pain quantification.
    • To classify tonic thermal pain in healthy subjects into ten distinct levels.
    • To assess the importance of different frequency bands in EEG for pain quantification.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized electroencephalography (EEG) data from healthy subjects undergoing tonic thermal pain stimuli.
    • Applied time-frequency wavelet transformations to independent components of EEG signals.
    • Trained a random forest machine learning model to predict pain scores.

    Main Results:

    • Achieved a mean classification accuracy of 89.45% for predicting pain levels (1-10) in independent subjects.
    • This accuracy surpasses existing state-of-the-art EEG-based pain quantification algorithms.
    • Identified the gamma frequency band as crucial for both intersubject and intrasubject pain classification.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed machine learning classifier demonstrates robustness and generalizability for pain quantification.
    • This tool holds potential for clinical application in improving chronic pain treatment.
    • The study establishes spectral biomarkers for future EEG-based pain research.
