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.
