<![CDATA[Work fatigue can cause a decrease in cognitive function, such as decreased thinking ability, concentration, and memory. A tired brain cannot work optimally, interfering with a person's ability to perform tasks that require complex thinking. In general, to evaluate work fatigue in a person, self-assessment activities using the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) are the method most often used by researchers or practitioners. However, this method is prone to bias because sometimes people try to hide or exaggerate their tiredness at work. Therefore, we propose to evaluate people's work fatigue based on their EEG data in this study. A total of 25 participants from SAR officers recorded their EEG data in relaxed conditions (pre-SAR operations) and fatigue conditions (post-SAR operations). Recording was performed on the brain's left (fp1 & t7) and right (fp2 & t8) hemispheres. The EEG data is then processed by filtering, artifact removal using ICA method, signal decomposition into several frequency bands, and Hjorth feature extraction (activity, mobility, and complexity). The main advantage of Hjorth parameters compared to other EEG features is its ability to provide rich information about the complexity and mobility of the EEG signal in a relatively simple and fast way. Based on the results of activity feature extraction, feature values will tend to increase during the post-SAR operation conditions compared to the pre-operation SAR conditions. In addition, the results of the classification of pre-and post-operative SAR conditions using Bagged Tree algorithm (10-fold cross validation) show that the highest accuracy can be obtained is 94.8%.]]>
