- Abstract:
-
EEG-based emotion recognition was an important research topic in brain-computer interfaces, affective computing, and mental health monitoring. However, existing EEG emotion recognition systems generally suffered from a large number of electrodes, high acquisition costs, limited wearability, and performance degradation under low-channel conditions. To address these issues, a low-channel EEG emotion recognition algorithm was proposed, in which the meta-heuristic optimization algorithm Sinh Cosh Optimizer ( SCHO) was integrated with the convolutional residual Top-k attention framework ( CRTA) to achieve adaptive channel selection and effective feature modeling. First, fast Fourier transform and power spectral density features were extracted from EEG signals, and SCHO was employed to adaptively select subject-specific emotion-discriminative electrode subsets. Subsequently, multiscale features were captured through convolutional layers and residual blocks in CRTA, while an improved Top-kmulti-head sparse attention mechanism was introduced in deep layers to reduce redundant information and enhance emotion-related features. Experimental results on the SEED and DEAP datasets demonstrated that the proposed algorithm achieved competitive performance under both full-channel and low-channel settings. Furthermore, a fixed six-electrode configuration consisting of F3, F8, T7, T8, P3, and P4 was found to maintain high recognition accuracy, providing an effective solution for low-channel and high-performance EEG emotion recognition and offering a reference for lightweight wearable EEG emotionmonitoring systems.
