| description | IntroductionIn high-stakes environments such as aviation, monitoring cognitive, and mental health is crucial, with electroencephalogram (EEG) data emerging as a keytool for this purpose. However traditional methods like linear models Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), and Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) architectures often struggle to capture the complex, non-linear temporal dependencies in EEG signals. These approaches typically fail to integrate multi-scale features effectively, resulting in suboptimal health intervention decisions, especially in dynamic, high-pressure environments like pilot training.MethodsTo overcome these challenges, this study introduces PilotCareTrans Net, a novel Transformer-based model designed for health intervention decision-making in aviation students. The model incorporates dynamic attention mechanisms, temporal convolutional layers, and multi-scale feature integration, enabling it to capture intricate temporal dynamics in EEG data more effectively. PilotCareTrans Net was evaluated on multiple public EEG datasets, including MODA, STEW, SJTUEmotion EEG, and Sleep-EDF, where it outperformed state-of-the-art models in key metrics.Results and discussionThe experimental results demonstrate the model's ability to not only enhance prediction accuracy but also reduce computational complexity, making it suitable for real-time applications in resource-constrained settings. These findings indicate that PilotCareTrans Net holds significant potential for improving cognitive health monitoring and intervention strategies in aviation, thereby contributing to enhanced safety and performance in critical environments. |
