Abstract
Passive Brain-computer Interfaces (BCI) are capable of estimating a user's cognitive state, mental workload, and
are used in many other applications [5,6]. However, to make them usable in everyday life there are various
challenges. One of them is large variability in the brain signals [4]. The given task in the Passive BCI Hackathon is
to predict the mental workload (intra-subject estimation), where a subject performs three subtasks with the different
levels of difficulties. BCI works in four main steps: Data Acquisition, Pre-processing and filtering, Feature extraction,
and Classification and evaluation of the output. The provided pre-processed and epoched data is used for multiclass classification with easy, medium, and difficult conditions.
