Assessing Region-Level EEG Contributions to Cognitive Workload Prediction

arXiv CS.LG

ArXi:2606.02598v1 Announce Type: new Accurate and generalizable estimation of cognitive workload from electroencephalography (EEG) is critical for human-centered and safety-critical systems. Although EEG is widely used for workload assessment, the consistency of region-level EEG contributions across tasks, datasets, and subjects remains unclear. This paper presents a region-level evaluation framework for EEG-based workload prediction in which models are trained and evaluated using features extracted exclusively from electrodes belonging to anatomically defined scalp regions.
