Artwork, generally refers to the work of plastic art. Artwork is divided into many categories, pottery art, traditional Chinese painting, abstract painting, musical instrument, sculpture, cultural relic sculpture, sandstone, imitation sandstone, ornaments, iron art, copper art, stainless steel sculpture and so on. With the continuous influx of artistic works, there are more and more studies on their emotional expression. How to judge whether musical works can bring joy, anger, sadness and joy to people? Is it joy over anger or anger over joy? Now in the era of the Internet of Things, the Internet of Things uses various information sensors, radio frequency identification technology, GPS, infrared sensors, laser scanners and other equipment and technologies to collect any objects and processes that need to be monitored, connected, and interacted in real time. By collecting various information such as sound, light, heat, electricity, mechanics, chemistry, biology, location and so on, and using various possible networks to connect, it can achieve intelligent perception, identification and management of objects and processes. The Internet of Things is an information carrier based on the Internet, traditional telecommunication networks and so on., so that all normal physical objects that can be individually located which can be connected together. The application field of the Internet of Things involves all aspects. The application in the fields of industry, agriculture, environment, transportation, logistics, security and other infrastructure has effectively promoted the intelligent development of these aspects, which making the limited resources more rational use and distribution, thus improving the efficiency and benefit of the industry. The application in household, medical and health, education, finance and service industry, tourism and other fields closely related to life has been greatly improved in terms of service scope, service method and service quality, which has greatly improved people’s quality of life. Based on this, this paper mainly studies the aesthetic emotion expression analysis of piano music art in the context of the Internet of Things. It mainly talks about the classification of music characteristics, emotional theoretical models, and emotional induction methods. Finally, the experimental analysis of piano music and the use of brain wave technology are used to analyze the experimental data. The experimental results show that in the process of feature extraction and optimization, this paper optimizes the traditional feature extraction based on power spectral density through cognitive rules, and achieves the effect of feature dimension reduction on the basis of ensuring the recognition rate. This paper uses the topological properties of EEG to classify emotions. The results show that the emotion recognition rate under the four emotional states can reach 67.3%, which is much higher than the current highest level.
