New methods improve emotion regression from EEG-fNIRS signals

Researchers have developed new methods for continuous affect regression using physiological signals like EEG and fNIRS. The first approach models shared and individual structures to predict valence and arousal across subjects, achieving lower MAE than baseline models. The second method establishes a strong baseline using video-time priors, suggesting that EEG-fNIRS provides a smaller, residual signal for emotion regression in familiar video scenarios. AI

IMPACT These methods could enhance the accuracy and applicability of emotion recognition systems in various fields.

    Modeling Shared and Individual Structure for Cross-Subject Continuous Affect Regression from EEG-fNIRS

    arXiv:2610.02796v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Continuous, second-by-second valence-arousal estimation from physiological signals is typically studied in a subject-dependent setting, where the model sees labeled data from the same person it is later evaluated on. We study the ha…

    Low-Cost Video--Time Priors as a Strong Baseline for EEG--fNIRS Emotion Regression on Familiar Videos

    arXiv:2610.03618v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Continuous emotion regression estimates moment-to-moment valence and arousal while a viewer watches a video. In familiar-video deployment, responses fron training participant-specific estimate, and prior-dominating fixed fusion test…
