Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of biological detection, and in particular to an emotion detection method, system and information push method based on the fusion of electroencephalogram signals, facial data and eye tracking technology. Background Art

[0002] Emotion detection, also known as emotion recognition, refers to inferring an individual's current emotional state by analyzing and processing signals collected from sensors. This process involves the detection of physiological signals (such as breathing, heart rate and body temperature) and emotional behaviors (such as facial expressions, voice status and gestures). Generally, the device is used to collect the EEG signals of the subject, and the specific features in the EEG (Electroencephalogram) signal are analyzed based on the EEG signals, such as the power spectrum density of different frequency bands, event-related potentials, etc., to identify the individual's emotional state. EEG signals can be divided into five frequency bands according to frequency characteristics, namely Delta (0.5~4Hz), Theta (4~8Hz), Alpha (8~13Hz), Beta (13~30Hz) and Gamma (30~47Hz) bands, each of which represents different brain activity areas and characteristic states. Emotional values ​​are divided by the numerical values ​​of emotional analysis feature states. However, EEG signals are easily affected by various artifacts during the measurement process. These artifacts will reduce the accuracy of EGG signals, such as electromyographic interference, electrocardiographic interference, 50Hz interference, and some high-frequency signal interference.

[0019] As for the collection of EEG data, the steps of collecting EEG data are as follows: play media resources with different emotional contents for the subjects to watch so as to induce emotional data with different emotional characteristics, and record the EEG values ​​of each emotional data to obtain the EEG data; the EEG data are EEG values ​​associated with time parameters. Specifically, different emotional contents are content items, and the subjects' stay time and EEG values ​​in the corresponding content items are recorded. The frequency bands of the EEG values ​​of any content item are Delta (0.5~4Hz), Theta (4~8Hz), Alpha (8~13Hz), Beta (13~30Hz) and Gamma (30~47Hz). It can be seen that by analyzing the EEG data, different emotion formation areas can be used for further joint analysis with facial data and eye movement data.

[0020] Regarding the collection of eye movement data, the collection of eye movement data is as follows: playing media resources with different emotional contents for the subjects to watch to record the eye movement trajectory of the subjects, and analyzing their attention and interest points under the media resources with different emotional contents; the subjects will increase their gaze time on the media resources that they are quite interested in, and the length of the gaze time is used to judge the subjects' attention and interest, and then the emotional content that the subjects are most interested in is calculated; Regarding facial data collection, the steps for facial data collection are as follows: Media resources with different emotional contents are played for the subjects to watch in order to capture the facial expressions of the subjects, so that the facial expressions are matched with the facial library data and then the facial data is output; facial data has a large amount of data for reference, therefore, by establishing a facial database, collecting the facial expressions of the subjects and matching them with the facial database, the emotions in the real-time state can be quickly obtained.

[0021] In the specific scheme, the media resources include video, audio or text; the emotional content includes fear content, anger content, sadness content and happiness content.

[0022] After the EEG data, facial data and eye movement data are accurately collected by the above technical means, they serve as the data basis for subsequent operations; in this embodiment, the weight calculation specifically includes the following stage steps: S1: Make a preliminary guess about the subject’s emotions based on facial data and obtain a preliminary judgment of the emotions; S2: Matching the initially judged emotion with the corresponding emotion in the EEG data to obtain a first judgment auxiliary value; S3: Matching the preliminary judged emotion with the corresponding emotion in the eye movement data to obtain a second judgement auxiliary value; S4: Obtain the highest value of the gradient standard value, perform weighted operation on the preliminary judgment emotion, the first judgment auxiliary value, and the second judgment auxiliary value to obtain an operation result, compare the operation structure with the standard value, and if the operation result is greater than the standard value, use the preliminary judgment value as the output emotion value and the trustworthiness of the emotion value; S5: If it is less than the operation structure, the secondary value of the gradient standard value is taken as the highest value, and the process loops into S4 and S5 until the sentiment value and the confidence of the sentiment value are output.
