Decoding brain states requires models that capture both the evolution of neural activity and interactions among groups of brain regions. Existing EEG methods often treat recordings as multivariate time series or represent functional connectivity with pairwise graphs, leaving dynamic higher-order interactions largely unmodeled. We introduce the Temporal Simplicial Neural Network (T-SNN), which represents EEG recordings as sequences of evolving simplicial complexes. By combining simplicial convolutions with recurrent updates, T-SNN jointly learns higher-order interactions and their temporal evolution. On the seven-class SEED-VII emotion recognition task, T-SNN outperforms convolutional, recurrent, graph-based, and Transformer methods in both trial-wise and cross-subject evaluations. Incorporating eye-movement features further improves performance, demonstrating the framework's potential for multimodal brain-state decoding.
