EEG(electroencephalogram) are measured to accurately determine the level of sleep in various sleep examinations. In general, measurements are more accurate as the number of sensor channels increases. EEG can interfere with sleep by attaching electrodes to the skin when measuring. It is necessary for self sleep care to select the minimum number of EEG channels that take into account both the user's discomfort and the accuracy of the measurement data. In this paper, we proposed a sleep stage analysis model based on machine learning and conducted experiments for using from one channel to four channels. We obtained estimation accuracy for sleep stage as following 82.28% for one channel, 85.77% for two channels, 80.33% for three channels and 68.87% for four channels. Although the measurement location is limited, the results of this study compare the accuracy according to the number of channels and provide information on the selection of channel numbers in the EEG sleep analysis.

최근 소형 모바일 디바이스가 발달함에 따라 시간적, 공간적 제약이 없이 대량의 콘텐츠가 소비되고 있는 환경에서 콘텐츠 소비 만족도 및 몰입도를 측정하기 위해 사용자 피드백을 설문 조사하는 기존 방식은 비효율적이다. 왜냐하면 수작업에 의존하고 객관성이 결여된 데이터가 수집될 가능성이 있기 때문이다. 따라서 최근 연구에서는 EEG를 활용한 방법이 하나의 대안으로 제시되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존 설문조사 방식의 한계점을 보완하고 기존 EEG방식의 단점을 개선하기 위한 포터블 EEG를 활용하는 방법을 제안하였다. 소형 및 간편함을 확보하기 위하여 배터리 환경에 비 접착식 단일전극을 이용하여 EEG를 측정하고 주파수 분석을 통하여 집중력과 관련된 파형을 분리, 콘텐츠 몰입도를 점수화 하였다. 마지막으로 실험을 통해 앞서 산출한 점수와 콘텐츠의 흥미도가 비례관계에 있음을 증명하였다.

Recently, biometric technology has begun to be used as a fusion of IT technology and financial system. Using this biometric technology, FIDO(Fast Identity Online) technology, Samsung and Apple started Samsung Pay and Apple Pay service. FIDO authentication technology replaces existing authentication methods such as passwords. Among the biometric technologies, fingerprint recognition technology is attracting attention because it can minimize the device and user rejection at a relatively low price. However, fingerprint information has a limited number of users and it can not be reused if fingerprint information is leaked by an external attacker. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a method to authenticate a user using EEG signal which is one of biometrics technologies. W propose a method to use EEG signal measurement value in FIDO system by using convenience channel by using short channel EEG device. And propose a method to utilize EEG signal when the user recognizes a specific entity by measuring the EEG signal before and after recognizing a specific entity.

Objective : By examining EEG status in Korean Traditional Medicine (KTM) from the viewpoint of 'form-qi theory(形氣論)', We wish to prepare for the fundamentals of applicability of KTM diagnoses to EEG. In addition, through reinterpretation of existing Western Medicine reports from the viewpoint of KTM, We tried to find out interrelationship between them. Method : In this paper, a methodology applicable to KTM diagnoses of EEG is presented from the EEG features in waveform characteristics, personalized diversity, and cognitive activity reflection. Results : Frequency bands are assigned to corresponding one of the eight trigrams in terms of yin/yang balance, which is analogous with EEG spectrum analysis mostly used in EEG quantification. The amplitude ratio of each EEG for each frequency band gives meaningful index numbers which can be used in EEG data interpretation, and every index number is named after the sixty four hexagrams. These approaches are adopted through both '4-band classification system and '6-band classification system', and applied to pre-existing reported EEG data obtained from normal adults. These analyses show that changes and distribution pattern in the index numbers are observed as a whole on both left-right line and front-back line connecting EEG measurement cephalic electrodes. And differences in distribution pattern of three index numbers deduced from '6-band classification system' are discussed according to constitution. Conclusion : The index numbers introduced here, which are the spectral power ratio for each EEG, are based on KTM yin/yang balance. These index numbers vary according to cephalic location, so its application in terms of traditional meridian theory is strongly expected. The index number distribution also shows different patterns according to constitution.

Brainwave-based user authentication technology has advantages such as changeability, shoulder-surfing resistance, and etc. comparing with conventional biometric authentications, fingerprint recognition for instance which are widely used for smart phone and finance user authentication. Despite these advantages, brainwave-based authentication technology has not been used in practice because of the price for EEG (electroencephalography) collecting devices and inconvenience to use those devices. However, according to the development of simple and convenient EEG collecting devices which are portable and communicative by the recent advances in hardware technology, relevant researches have been actively performed. However, according to the experiment based on EEG samples collected by using a single-channel EEG measurement device which is the most simplified one, the authentication accuracy decreases as the number of channels to measure and collect EEG decreases. Therefore, in this paper, we analyze technical problems that need to be solved for practical use of brainwave-based use authentication and propose an incremental elimination method of collected EEG samples for each user to consist a set of EEG samples which are effective to authentication users.

This study attempted to analyze human brain responses toward visual content through EEG signals and intended to measure brain wave reactions of different age groups to determine the sexuality level of the media. The experimental stimuli consist of three different video footage (rated ages 12, 15, and 18) to analyze how subjects react in situations where they actually watch sexual content. For measuring and analyzing brain wave reactions, EEG equipment records alpha, beta, and gamma wave responses of the subjects' left and right frontal lobes, temporal lobes, and occipital lobes. The subjects of this study were 28 total and they are divided into two groups. The experiment configures a sexual content classification scale with age or gender as a discriminating variable and brain region-specific response frequencies (left/right, frontal/temporal/occipital, alpha/beta/gamma waves) as independent variables. The experimental results showed the possibility of distinguishing gender and age differences. The apparent differences in brain wave response areas and bands among high school girls, high school boys, and college students are found. Using these brain wave response data, this study explored the potential of developing algorithm for measurement of age-specific responses to sexual content and apply it as a film rating.

In this paper, we presented the results of analysis through EEG measurement for the purpose of checking the frequency band of EEG signals that can be used for personal authentication. The measurement status was divided into the open-eye state and the closed-eye state depending on the presence or absence of an optical task. The data measured in the EEG experiments was divided into seven frequency bands : delta waves, theta waves, alpha waves, SMR waves, mid-beta waves, beta waves and gamma waves to identify the frequency band with the smallest power fluctuation over time. In our results, there was no significant difference between the open-eye state and the closed-eye state, and the SMR waves and mid-beta waves related to human concentration had the smallest fluctuation in power over time, and were a highly reproducible frequency band.

In this paper, the new architecture of seizure prediction using CNN and LSTM and DWT was presented. In the proposed architecture, EEG data was labeled into a preictal and interictal section, and DWT was adopted to the preprocessing process to apply the characteristics of the time and frequency domain of the processed EEG signal. Also, CNN was applied to extract the spatial characteristics of each electrode used for EEG measurement, and LSTM neural network was applied to verify the logical order of the preictal section. The learning of the proposed architecture utilizes the CHB-MIT Scalp EEG dataset, and the sliding window technique is applied to balance the dataset between the number of interictal sections and the number of preictal sections. As a result of the simulation of the proposed architecture, a sensitivity of 81.22% and an FPR of 0.174 were obtained.
