Real-time cross-subject emotional arousal estimation in virtual reality using low-density EEG: A multimodal physiological validation

Jomaa M, Sezer I, Filipchuk A, Louvigné M

Biomedical Signal Processing and Control, 2026 • DOI: 10.1016/j.bspc.2026.111019

This study introduces a low-density, 6-channel EEG framework for real-time estimation of emotional arousal in immersive VR, validated against peripheral physiology. EEG, ECG and eye-tracking were recorded from 34 participants during affective image viewing and a VR relaxation session. Using non-linear features and ensemble learning, the model reached 70.5% cross-subject accuracy. EEG-predicted arousal correlated strongly with saccadic velocity, and anxiety reduction was linked to a negative coupling between arousal and heart-rate variability, showing that low-density EEG can capture physiologically meaningful arousal in immersive VR.

2025Research Article

Enhanced Brain-Heart Connectivity as a Precursor of Reduced State Anxiety After Therapeutic Virtual Reality Immersion

Sezer I, Moreau P, Jomaa M, Godefroy V, Batrancourt B, Lévy R, Filipchuk A

Advanced Science, 2025 • DOI: 10.1002/advs.202503606

This study provides the first evidence that EEG beta activity and brain-heart coupling predict individual response to VR-based anxiety therapy. 27 participants underwent a therapeutic VR session while EEG and ECG were recorded simultaneously. Responders showed significantly stronger midline beta modulation and EEG-to-HRV directed connectivity compared to non-responders — opening the path toward biologically personalised VR therapy.
