Abstract

The analysis of cognitive patterns through brain signals offers critical insights into human cognition, including perception, attention, memory, and decision-making. However, accurately classifying these signals remains a challenge due to their inherent complexity and non-linearity. This study introduces a novel method, PCA-ANFIS, which integrates Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference Systems (ANFIS), to enhance cognitive pattern recognition in multimodal brain signal analysis. PCA reduces the dimensionality of EEG data while retaining salient features, enabling computational efficiency. ANFIS combines the adaptability of neural networks with the interpretability of fuzzy logic, making it well-suited to model the non-linear relationships within brain signals. Performance metrics of our proposed method, such as accuracy, sensitivity, and computational efficiency. These additions highlight the effectiveness of the method and provide a concise summary of the findings. The proposed method achieves superior classification performance, with an unprecedented accuracy of 99.5%, significantly outperforming existing approaches. Comprehensive experiments were conducted using a diverse multimodal EEG dataset, demonstrating the method's robustness and sensitivity. The integration of PCA and ANFIS addresses key challenges in multimodal brain signal analysis, such as EEG artifact contamination and non-stationarity, ensuring reliable feature extraction and classification. This research has significant implications for both cognitive neuroscience and clinical practice. By advancing the understanding of cognitive processes, the PCA-ANFIS method facilitates accurate diagnosis and treatment of cognitive disorders and neurological conditions. Future work will focus on testing the approach with larger and more diverse datasets and exploring its applicability in domains such as neurofeedback, neuromarketing, and brain-computer interfaces. This study establishes PCA-ANFIS as a capable tool for the precise and efficient classification of cognitive patterns in brain signal processing.
