Background:

Sustained attention is crucial for tasks with high-stakes consequences.
Accurate measurement of attention levels is challenging, particularly in clinical settings.
Existing methods for assessing attention using electroencephalography (EEG) have limitations.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop and validate a novel EEG-based method for distinguishing multiple levels of sustained attention.
To improve the accuracy and reliability of attention state classification.
To explore the relationship between frontal EEG dynamical complexity and sustained attention performance.

Main Methods:

Recorded EEG signals from 42 subjects performing a sustained attention task.
Utilized calibrated response time to define four attention levels (resting state and three task states).
Extracted EEG-based dynamical complexity features and employed an Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) classifier (Complexity-XGBoost).

Main Results:

The Complexity-XGBoost model achieved high accuracy in classifying attention levels: 81.39% for four levels, 80.42% for three levels, and 95.36% for two levels (5-fold cross-validation).
The proposed method outperformed traditional EEG features and other classification algorithms.
Frontal EEG dynamical complexity measures correlated with response changes during the sustained attention task.

Conclusions:

The dynamical complexity approach effectively classifies multi-level attention states using EEG.
This method offers a promising tool for real-time attention monitoring in critical applications and clinical practice.
Potential applications include cognitive assessment and neural feedback for attention-related disorders.
