Emotions play an important role in our daily life. AntonioDamasiofamously stated: “We are not thinking machines that feel; rather we are feeling machines that think”. Human emotions can be recognized through facial expression, speech and gesture. The use of electroencephalograms (EEGs) to understand and recognize human emotion has been widely studied, where those recognition techniques greatly benefit in human-computer interaction (HCI). In this investigation, we study the use of EEGs to recognize emotions.
