A Deep Learning-Based Classification Method for Different Frequency EEG Data

Abstract

In recent years, the research on electroencephalography (EEG) has focused on the feature extraction of EEG signals. The development of convenient and simple EEG acquisition devices has produced a variety of EEG signal sources and the diversity of the EEG data. Thus, the adaptability of EEG classification methods has become significant. This study proposed a deep network model for autonomous learning and classification of EEG signals, which could self-adaptively classify EEG signals with different sampling frequencies and lengths. The artificial design feature extraction methods could not obtain stable classification results when analyzing EEG data with different sampling frequencies. However, the proposed depth network model showed considerably better universality and classification accuracy, particularly for EEG signals with short length, which was validated by two datasets.
