Abstract

There is a large variation in EEG signals from human to human. Therefore, it is a tough task to create a subject-independent emotion recognition system using EEG. EEG is reliable than facial expression or speech signal to recognize emotions, since this cannot be self-produced. The proposed study aims to develop a subject-independent emotion recognition system with a benchmark database DEAP. In this work, deep neural network with simple architecture is used to classify low–high valence and similarly low–high arousal. EEG signals are nonstationary signals. In this, the stochastic properties as well as spectrum changes over time. For these types of signals, the wavelet transform would be suitable as features, hence, wavelet transform is used to obtain different frequency bands of EEG signals.
