description For solving the problem of the inevitable decline in the accuracy of cross-subject emotion recognition via Electroencephalograph (EEG) signal transfer learning due to the negative transfer of data in the source domain, this paper offers a new method to dynamically select the data suitable for transfer learning and eliminate the data that may lead to negative transfer. The method which is called cross-subject source domain selection (CSDS) consists of the next three parts. 1) First, a Frank-copula model is established according to Copula function theory to study the correlation between the source domain and the target domain, which is described by the Kendall correlation coefficient. 2) The calculation method for the Maximum Mean Discrepancy is improved to determine the distance between classes in a single source. After normalization, the Kendall correlation coefficient is superimposed, and the threshold is set to identify the source-domain data most suitable for transfer learning. 3) In the process of transfer learning, on the basis of Manifold Embedded Distribution Alignment, the Local Tangent Space Alignment method is used to provide a low-dimensional linear estimation of the local geometry of nonlinear manifolds, which maintains the local characteristics of the sample data after dimensionality reduction. Experimental results show that compared with the traditional methods, the CSDS increases the accuracy of emotion classification by approximately 2.8% and reduces the runtime by approximately 65%.
