Abstract

COVID-19, a WHO-declared public health emergency of worldwide concern, is quickly spreading over the world, posing a physical and mental health hazard. The COVID-19 has resulted in one of the world’s most significant worldwide lockdowns, affecting human mental health. In this research work, a modified Long Short-Term Memory (MLSTM)-based Deep Learning model framework is proposed for analyzing COVID-19 effect on emotion and mental health during the pandemic using electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. The participants of this study were volunteers that recovered from COVID-19. The EEG dataset of 40 people is collected to predict emotion and mental health. The results of the MLSTM model are also compared with the other literature classifiers. With an accuracy of 91.26%, the MLSTM beats existing classifiers when using the 70-30 partitioning technique.Copyright © 2022 Aditi Sakalle et al.
