Cross-Subject EEG Emotion Recognition Based on Temporal Asynchronous Alignment Contrastive Learning

arXiv:2605.22379v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: With the advancement of science and technology, the importance of emotion research has become increasingly evident. Electroencephalography (EEG)-based emotion recognition has emerged as an active research area in recent years, owing to its objectivity and high temporal resolution. However, most existing methods focus on optimizing encoder structures to enhance feature extraction capabilities, while paying relatively little attention to similarity calculation strategies, particularly overlooking the potential temporal misalignment of responses a
