Study on Different Brain Activation Rearrangement during Cognitive Workload from ERD/ERS and Coherence Analysis

Study on Different Brain Activation Reorganization during Cognitive Load: ERD/ERS and Coherence Analysis Academic Background When humans engage in imagination, movement, or cognitive tasks, their brain functional activity patterns and activated regions differ. These pattern changes are also reflected in changes in brain electrical activity, which c...

Physiological Data for Affective Computing: The Affect-HRI Dataset

Application of Physiological Data in Human-Robot Interaction with Anthropomorphic Service Robots: Affect-HRI Dataset Background and Significance In interactions between humans and humans, as well as humans and robots, the interacting entity can influence human emotional states. Unlike humans, robots inherently cannot exhibit empathy and thus cannot...

Speech-Induced Suppression During Natural Dialogues

During human communication, the brain processes self-generated speech and others’ speech differently, a phenomenon known as the Speech-Induced Suppression (SIS) mechanism. This mechanism involves the motor efference copy in the perception pathway, functioning similar to an “echo” that helps filter internally generated signals to avoid confusing the...
