The human brain is considered as a complex system having different mental states such as resting, active or cognitive states. It is a well-understood fact that the brain activity increases with the increased demand of cognition. The differences among different mental states can be explored by using classification techniques. The deep learning algorithm based on 1D convolutional neural network (CNN) model has been proposed for the classification of rest and cognitive states and also the cognitive load has been assessed using brain waves particularly alpha wave. EEG data were collected from 34 human participants at resting and during learning state. After preprocessing, EEG data has been segmented into equal number of segments to investigate the deep temporal information for cognitive load assessment. The brain waves were extracted using discrete wavelet transform (DWT) for each segment and fed these segments to proposed model for classification and assessment of cognitive load. The results show that alpha brain wave produced consistent behavior using 1D-CNN technique for cognitive load measurement and provides efficient solution in EEG data for learning and resting state task. {\^A}{\copyright} 2018 IEEE.} }
