Artificial Aesthetics: Bridging Neuroaesthetics and Machine Learning

Published: 08 March 2024 Publication History

Abstract

This paper presents an innovative exploration of neuroscience, aesthetics, and artificial intelligence. This paper discusses the potential of machine learning in enhancing our understanding of the neural underpinnings of aesthetic experiences and artistic creation. Neuroaesthetics seeks to unravel the cerebral processes involved in art perception and emotional engagement. Integrating these insights with the capabilities of advanced ML models, particularly those inspired by human brain architecture, opens new avenues for analyzing and generating art. This interdisciplinary approach leverages neural network algorithms to mimic and extrapolate human aesthetic preferences and interpretations. Our research employs deep machine learning techniques to analyze electroencephalogram data, categorized based on aesthetic preferences. The datasets from prior research studies provide data for examining the neural correlates of aesthetic judgment and experience. By leveraging machine learning algorithms, we uncover intricate patterns within the EEG readings that correlate with participants' aesthetic preferences, thereby deepening our understanding of the neural mechanisms underlying aesthetic appreciation for design objects.
