AI Summary

Researchers at DGIST Industrial AX Innovation Institute and Gwangju Institute of Science and Technology have created an artificial‑intelligence system that analyzes electroencephalogram signals produced by thermal pain stimuli. The AI classifies pain intensity objectively, offering a quantitative alternative to subjective pain reports. The work is detailed in a paper published in IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering. Principal Researcher An Jinung led the DGIST team, while Professor Jeon Seong‑chan’s group at Gwangju Institute contributed to the study.
