What is missing. This record has no bottom line, key findings, reported figures, evidence dimensions. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
Cross-subject generalization remains a major challenge for EEG-based emotion recognition due to pronounced inter-subject variability in neural activity and emotion-related spatiotemporal patterns. Existing methods mainly alleviate inter subject differences through distribution alignment or contrastive learning, while paying limited attention to representation bias associated with fixed spatiotemporal modeling orders. We hypothesize that high-level emotion representations of the same EEG signal should remain consistent across different spatiotemporal modeling paths. Based on this hypothesis, we propose a Dual-Path Spatiotemporal Contrastive Learning (DP-STCL) framework for cross-subject EEG emotion recognition. DP-STCL employs two complementary encoders with independent parameters, namely a Temporal-to-Spatial (TS) path and a Spatial to-Temporal (ST) path, to model EEG spatiotemporal information under different integration orders. During representation learning, the same emotional stimulus is used to establish cross subject associations, while three complementary relations jointly constrain representation variations across subjects and modeling paths. This promotes stable and discriminative stimulus-related emotion representations. To further handle limited labeled target subject data, we introduce a LoRA-based few-shot adaptation strategy with low parameter overhead. Extensive cross-subject experiments on SEED, SEED-IV, SEED-V, and FACED show that DP-STCL consistently outperforms the compared methods, demonstrating its effectiveness in improving cross-subject EEG emotion recognition.
