The progressive and gradual escalation of mental fatigue implies specific alterations in both power spectral values and brain connectivity. Detect these variations can improve the understanding of mental fatigue, and lead to identifying sensitive channels to mental state changes and also to identify brain connectivity profiles. This article aims to identify pairs of electrodes that could be used as indicators of mental fatigue based on highly correlated connectivity variations with power spectral values, and also high significance through both normal and fatigue states. In an effort to validate the selected pairs of channels, labeled and unlabeled datasets were subjected to statistical analysis. Our results indicate the concentration of channels in the anterior and posterior brain regions in the left hemisphere, and attenuation of brain connectivity.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
