Potential Indicator for Continuous Emotion Arousal by Dynamic Neural Synchrony
- 基于单电极特征动态分析脑电同步性。
- 发现一阶差分与熵值是关键情绪特征。
- 适合情绪计算与神经科学研究者使用。
连续情绪识别与视频精彩片段检测等应用亟需自动且高质量的情绪标注,但人工标注困难。受神经科学中跨被试相关性(ISC)启发,本研究提出一种基于脑电图(EEG)的新型单电极、特征驱动的动态ISC方法。贡献有三:首先,重新识别出两个有效情绪特征——一阶差分(FD)与微分熵(DE);其次,通过整体相关性分析,揭示了电极间同步性能的异质性,其表现与先前研究确立的神经情绪模式一致,验证了方法有效性;第三,采用滑动窗口相关技术,展示了在不同特征或关键电极上,动态ISC在各电影片段中具有显著一致性。研究结果表明,该方法能可靠捕捉个体间由感性影片刺激引发的持续共享神经同步性,具备作为连续人类情绪唤醒指标的潜力。对情感计算与神经科学领域具有重要意义,为真实场景下的情绪分析提供了高效工具。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
The need for automatic and high-quality emotion annotation is paramount in applications such as continuous emotion recognition and video highlight detection, yet achieving this through manual human annotations is challenging. Inspired by inter-subject correlation (ISC) utilized in neuroscience, this study introduces a novel Electroencephalography (EEG) based ISC methodology that leverages a single-electrode and feature-based dynamic approach. Our contributions are three folds. Firstly, we reidentify two potent emotion features suitable for classifying emotions-first-order difference (FD) an differential entropy (DE). Secondly, through the use of overall correlation analysis, we demonstrate the heterogeneous synchronized performance of electrodes. This performance aligns with neural emotion patterns established in prior studies, thus validating the effectiveness of our approach. Thirdly, by employing a sliding window correlation technique, we showcase the significant consistency of dynamic ISCs across various features or key electrodes in each analyzed film clip. Our findings indicate the method's reliability in capturing consistent, dynamic shared neural synchrony among individuals, triggered by evocative film stimuli. This underscores the potential of our approach to serve as an indicator of continuous human emotion arousal. The implications of this research are significant for advancements in affective computing and the broader neuroscience field, suggesting a streamlined and effective tool for emotion analysis in real-world applications.
