Abstract
In a growing world of technology, psychological disorders became a
challenge to be solved. The methods used for cognitive stimulation are
very conventional and based on one-way communication, which only rely on
the material or method used for training of an individual. It doesn’t
use any kind of feedback from the individual to analyze the progress of
the training process. We have proposed a closed-loop methodology to
improve the cognitive state of a person with ID (Intellectual
disability). We have used a platform named ‘Armoni’, for providing
training to the intellectually disabled individuals. The learning is
performed in a closed-loop by using feedback in the form of change in
affective state. For feedback to the Armoni, an EEG
(Electroencephalograph) headband is used. All the changes in EEG are
observed and classified against the change in the mean and standard
deviation value of all frequency bands of signal. This comparison is
being helpful in defining every activity with respect to change in brain
signals. In this paper, we have discussed the process of treatment of
EEG signal and its definition against the different activities of
Armoni. We have tested it on 6 different systems with different age
groups and cognitive levels.
