PARSE: Pairwise Alignment of Representations in Semi-Supervised EEG Learning for Emotion Recognition
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We propose pairwise alignment of representations for semi-supervised Electroencephalogram (EEG) learning (PARSE), a novel semi-supervised architecture for learning reliable EEG representations for emotion recognition. To reduce the potential distribution mismatch between large amounts of unlabeled data and a limited number of labeled data, PARSE uses pairwise representation alignment. First, our model performs data augmentation followed by label guessing for large amounts of original and augmented unlabeled data. The model is then followed by sharpening the guessed labels and convex combinations of the unlabeled and labeled data. Finally, it performs representation alignment and emotion classification. To rigorously test our model, we compare PARSE to several state-of-the-art semi-supervised approaches, which we implement and adapt for EEG learning. We perform these experiments on four public EEG-based emotion recognition datasets, SEED, SEED-IV, SEED-V and AMIGOS (valence and arousal). The experiments show that our proposed framework achieves the overall best results with varying amounts of limited labeled samples in SEED, SEED-IV and AMIGOS (valence), while approaching the overall best result (reaching the second-best) in SEED-V and AMIGOS (arousal). The analysis shows that our pairwise representation alignment considerably improves the performance by performing the distribution alignment between unlabeled and labeled data, especially when only 1 sample per class is labeled.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
