Abstrakt:	This article summarizes a systematic literature review of deep neural network-based cognitive workload (CWL) estimation from electroencephalographic (EEG) signals. The focus of this article can be delineated into two main elements: first is the identification of experimental paradigms prevalently employed for CWL induction, and second, is an inquiry about the data structure and input formulations commonly utilized in deep neural networks (DNN)-based CWL detection. The survey revealed several experimental paradigms that can reliably induce either graded levels of CWL or a desired cognitive state due to sustained induction of CWL. This article has characterized them with respect to the number of distinct CWL levels, cognitive states, experimental environment, and agents in focus. Further, this literature analysis found that DNNs can successfully detect distinct levels of CWL despite the inter-subject and inter-session variability typically observed in EEG signals. Several methodologies were found using EEG signals in its native representation of a two-dimensional matrix as input to the classification algorithm, bypassing traditional feature selection steps. More often than not, researchers used DNNs as black-box type models, and only a few studies employed interpretable or explainable DNNs for CWL detection. However, these algorithms were mostly post hoc data analysis and classification schemes, and only a few studies adopted real-time CWL estimation methodologies. Further, it has been suggested that using interpretable deep learning methodologies may shed light on EEG correlates of CWL, but this remains mostly an unexplored area. This systematic review suggests using networks sensitive to temporal dependencies and appropriate input formulations for each type of DNN architecture to achieve robust classification performance. An additional suggestion is to utilize transfer learning methods to achieve high generalizability across tasks (task-independent classifiers), while simple cross-subject data pooling may achieve the same for subject-independent classifiers.
