Comprehensive analysis of feature extraction methods for emotion recognition from multichannel EEG recordings by Yuvaraj, Rajamanickam, Thagavel, Prasanth, Thomas, John, Fogarty, Jack, Ali, Farhan

“…The FD-CART feature-classification method attained the best mean classification accuracy for valence (85.06%) and arousal (84.55%) across the five datasets. The stability of these findings across the five different datasets also indicate that FD features derived from EEG data are reliable for emotion recognition. …”
