An EEG-based Cognitive Fatigue Detection System

Abstract

Mental or Cognitive fatigue (CF) is the exhaustion of the neurological system brought on by prolonged cognitive tasks. It causes performance to decline in day-to-day life. Throughout this paper, we present an experimental setup where we artificially induce cognitive fatigue to participants. During the experimental process, we collected electroencephalogram (EEG) signals from the subjects that participated in the experiment. The goal of the study is to detect the presence or absence of cognitive fatigue. Our proposed solution was able to classify cognitive fatigue of the subjects with an accuracy of 88.17%.
