Classifying human emotions in HRI: applying global optimization model to EEG brain signals

Mariacarla Staffa,
Lorenzo D'Errico,
Simone Sansalone
et al.

Abstract: Significant efforts have been made in the past decade to humanize both the form and function of social robots to increase their acceptance among humans. To this end, social robots have recently been combined with brain-computer interface (BCI) systems in an attempt to give them an understanding of human mental states, particularly emotions. However, emotion recognition using BCIs poses several challenges, such as subjectivity of emotions, contextual dependency, and a lack of reliable neuro-metrics for real-tim… Show more

“…To address the limitations in the past literature concerning uncontrolled experimental design and lack of objective measurements, we compared two groups of participants who engaged in a deep breathing exercise either mediated by a Pepper robot or by a laptop. Additionally, we evaluated the effectiveness of each technology in reducing stress by collecting physiological signals such as GSRs and EEG brain activity, which is a novel approach in HRI research for objective measurement of the users' experience [10,[17][18][19].…”

“…On the other hand, emotional valence can be evaluated by measuring changes in EEG brain activity using the well-known neurometric of Frontal Alpha Asymmetry (FAA) [18,[31][32][33]. FAA refers to the lateralization (change between the right and left hemispheres) of the alpha-band brain activity in the frontal brain region.…”
