Predicting feedback perception in an online language learning task using EEG and machine learning

In this project, we aim to use machine learning on EEG data from participants’ language learning tasks on Duolingo. Specifically, we ask if EEG features can predict whether the participant has gotten a task right or wrong when they receive feedback. Using a k-nearest neighbours classifier, we achieve 98% accuracy in determining correct or incorrect answers based on EEG voltages from 8 electrodes.

Biosignal processing for automatic emotion recognition

Can we automatically detect changes in emotions given a user’s biosignals? In this project, we used multimodal biosignal data to predict the target emotion of audiovisual stimuli.

Classifying ADHD subtypes and sex using multimodal data

ADHD subtypes are a controversial aspect of ADHD literature. Most subtypes classifications are based on behavioral and cognitive data but lack biomarkers. Using a multimodal dataset comprised of EEG data as well as self-reported symptoms and behavioral data, we tried to predict the DSM subtypes of each of our 96 participants. Since ADHD has been noted to present itself differently across sexes, we also tried to predict sex. At-rest eeg data and behavioral data proved to be poor predictors of the DSM subtypes. However, self-reported symptoms were a rich predictor of ADHD subtype. Additionally, predicting sex using EEG data yielded the highest decoding accuracies.

Combine EEG/MRI/Behavioral data-sets to learn more about Music/Auditory system

In this project I aim to combine data from different modalities (fMRI, EEG, and behavioral) to understand more about sound and music processing. My main focus in this project was to try to reproduce some of the results from a published paper starting form raw data.

Revealing similarities between deep learning models and brain EEG representations

Do artificial neural networks process visual images similarly to our brain? If so, how? In this project, we bridge deep learning and brain EEG signals as we aim to understand more about our ability to process common visual stimuli such as objects, faces, scenes and animals.
