This study decodes consumers' preference levels using a convolutional neural network (CNN) in neuromarketing. The classification accuracy in neuromarketing is a critical factor in evaluating the intentions of the consumers. Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is utilized as a neuroimaging modality to measure the cerebral hemodynamic responses. In this study, a specific decoding structure, called CNN-based fNIRS-data analysis, was designed to achieve a high classification accuracy. Compared to other methods, the automated characteristics, constant training of the dataset, and learning efficiency of the proposed method are the main advantages. The experimental procedure required eight healthy participants (four female and four male) to view commercial advertisement videos of different durations (15, 30, and 60 s). The cerebral hemodynamic responses of the participants were measured. To compare the preference classification performances, CNN was utilized to extract the most common features, including the mean, peak, variance, kurtosis, and skewness. Considering three video durations, the average classification accuracies of 15, 30, and 60 s videos were 84.3, 87.9, and 86.4%, respectively. Among them, the classification accuracy of 87.9% for 30 s videos was the highest. The average classification accuracies of three preferences in females and males were 86.2 and 86.3%, respectively, showing no difference in each group. By comparing the classification performances in three different combinations (like vs. so-so, like vs. dislike, and so-so vs. dislike) between two groups, male participants were observed to have targeted preferences for commercial advertising, and the classification performance 88.4% between “like” vs. “dislike” out of three categories was the highest. Finally, pairwise classification performance are shown as follows: For female, 86.1% (like vs. so-so), 87.4% (like vs. dislike), 85.2% (so-so vs. dislike), and for male 85.7, 88.4, 85.1%, respectively.

AbstractObjectivesThis work describes the design and development of a four-channel near-infrared spectroscopy system to detect the oxygenated and deoxygenated hemoglobin concentration changes in the brain during various motor tasks.MethodsThe system uses light-emitting diodes corresponding to two wavelengths of 760 nm and 850 nm sensitive to deoxygenated and oxygenated hemoglobin concentration changes, respectively. The response is detected using a photodetector with an integrated transimpedance amplifier. The system is designed with four channels for functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) signals acquisition. Two experiments were conducted to demonstrate the ability of the system to detect the changes in hemodynamic responses of different tasks. In the first experiment, the hemodynamic changes during motor execution and imagery of right- and left-fist clenching tasks were acquired by the developed system and validated against a standard multichannel NIRS system. In another experiment, the fNIRS signals during rest and motor execution of right-fist clenching task were acquired using the system and classified.ResultsThe results demonstrate the ability of the designed system to detect the brain hemodynamic changes during various tasks. Also, the activation patterns obtained by the developed system with a minimum number of channels are on par with those obtained by the commercial system.ConclusionsThe developed four-channel NIRS system is user-friendly and has been designed with inexpensive components, unlike the commercially available NIRS instruments that are cumbersome and expensive.

In this paper, a time-domain fast gated near-infrared spectroscopy system is presented. The system is composed of a fiber-based laser providing two pulsed sources and two fast gated detectors. The system is characterized on phantoms and was tested in vivo, showing how the gating approach can improve the contrast and contrast-to-noise-ratio for detection of absorption perturbation inside a diffusive medium, regardless of source-detector separation.

In some circumstances, cerebral blood volume (CBV) can be used as a measure for cerebral blood flow. A new near infrared spectroscope was used for determining the reproducibility of CBV measurements assessed by the O2-method. Twenty-seven healthy subjects were investigated. An intrasubject coefficient of variation (CV) was calculated, based on four identical episodes of desaturation–resaturation (O2-method) procedures for CBV measurements. Two trials were performed, with (trial 1) and without (trial 2) disconnecting the equipment. A mean CV of 12.6% and 10.0% was found in trial 1 and 2, respectively. Cerebral blood volume values yield 3.60 ± 0.82 mL 100 g−1. Cerebral blood volume could be measured reproducible in adults using near infrared spectroscopy, if the arterial desaturation is limited to approximately 5% from baseline level.
