Classification of Neurotransmitters

Classification of Neurotransmitters

Neurotransmitters play a crucial role in the communication between neurons in the autonomic nervous system. Neurons in the autonomic nervous system can be cholinergic or adrenergic depending on the neurotransmitters synthesized. Cholinergic neurons use acetylcholine as their primary neurotransmitter. This includes all the preganglionic fibers of the sympathetic and pre- and postganglionic fibers of the parasympathetic nervous systems. In addition, neurons of the somatic nervous system also use...

Brain Waves

Brain Waves

Brain waves are electrical signals generated by the neurons in the brain, which are regularly monitored to measure mental activities. Brain waves and their frequency ranges can be measured using an electroencephalogram or EEG. There are four main types of brain waves, each with distinct characteristics:

Classification of Signals

Classification of Signals

In signal processing, signals are classified based on various characteristics: continuous-time versus discrete-time, periodic versus aperiodic, analog versus digital, and causal versus noncausal. Each category highlights distinct properties crucial for understanding and manipulating signals.
A continuous-time signal holds a value at every instant in time, representing information seamlessly. In contrast, a discrete-time signal holds values only at specific moments, often denoted as x(n), where...

Brain Imaging

Brain Imaging

Brain imaging technologies provide critical insights into both the structure and function of the human brain, enabling medical professionals and researchers to diagnose, study, and treat neurological disorders or psychiatric disorders more effectively.
These technologies include computerized axial tomography (CAT or CT scans), positron-emission tomography (PET scans), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), and Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS).

Background:

Emotions profoundly impact human behavior and health outcomes.
Electroencephalography (EEG) signal analysis offers a pathway for objective emotion recognition.
Advancements in emotion recognition can personalize medicine and adaptive technologies.

Purpose of the Study:

To evaluate ShallowFBCSPNet, Deep4Net, and EEGNetv4 for emotion classification using EEG data.
To assess the performance of these neural networks on the SEED-V dataset.
To identify challenges and opportunities in EEG-based emotion recognition.

Main Methods:

Utilized the SEED-V dataset with EEG recordings from 16 participants.
Classified five emotional states: happiness, sadness, disgust, neutrality, and fear.
Trained and tested three distinct neural network architectures: ShallowFBCSPNet, Deep4Net, and EEGNetv4.

Main Results:

ShallowFBCSPNet achieved the highest accuracy (39.13%), followed by Deep4Net (38.26%) and EEGNetv4 (25.22%).
Significant misclassification patterns were observed across models.
Performance lagged considerably behind state-of-the-art methods (e.g., ResNet18 with differential entropy at 95.61%).

Conclusions:

Generalizing emotional states from raw EEG signals presents significant challenges.
Advanced preprocessing and feature extraction techniques are essential for robust EEG-based emotion recognition.
This study provides foundational insights into the capabilities and limitations of current neural networks in this domain.
