Abstract

When people observe the actions of others, they naturally try to understand the underlying intentions. This behavior is called action understanding, and it has an important influence on mental development, language comprehension, and socialization. In this study, we used functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to obtain brain signals related to action understanding and then classified different intentions. Aiming to overcome the drawbacks of traditional multiclass classification methods of one-versus-rest (OVR) and one-versus-one (OVO), in this paper, we propose a new effective method to solve multiclass classification that is a combination of OVR and OVO. Compared with OVO, this new method effectively improved the accuracy of four-class classification from 25% to 48%.
