Utilizing singular value analysis to eliminate noise in EEG signal data, calculating multi-scale entropy values of the original EEG signals, referencing the FS-4 fatigue scale, and analyzing entropy value stability; proposing three fatigue analysis algorithms?random forest, BP neural network, and XGBoost comparing them with traditional machine learning methods and artificial neural network methods , investigating the relationship between multi-scale entropy values of EEG 1 signals and fatigue in healthcare personnel, and analyzing the determination of mental fatigue status. This paper employs the multi-scale entropy method to extract multi-scale information from original EEG signals. The combination of multi-scale information with three fatigue analysis algorithms enables the detection and analysis of mental fatigue status in healthcare personnel. Experimental results indicate that the XGBoost algorithm exhibits the highest sensitivity at 75%, while the random forest algorithm demonstrates the best specificity at 80% and an AUC value of 95%. The random forest algorithm demonstrates superior performance in studying mental fatigue.
