Correction to: Scientific Reports https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-025-07416-5, published online 01 July 2025
The original version of this article contained an error in the dataset labels for ‘KDEF’ and ‘FESR’.
As a result, the column ‘Dataset’ in Table 6 was incorrect.
The correct and incorrect data appear below.

In addition, under the Experiments section, subheading ‘Comparative experiments with other methods’, where:
“Second, the accuracies of wCA-MCNN and MsC-wCA-ResNet18 are better than the other related methods. Although in KDEF, the performance of wCA-MCNN only exceeds that of DDMAFN and is weaker than other methods such as ResEmoteNet. On the KDEF dataset, MsC-wCA-ResNet18 achieves the highest accuracy (97.664%) and F1 score (0.952918), outperforming all baseline models including MA-Net and CDERNet. On the FESR dataset, the performances of both wCA-MCNN and MsC-wCA-ResNet18 are superior to other methods. Among them, MsC-wCA-ResNet18 achieved the highest values in Precision (97.510%), Recall (97.483%), F1 score (0.974806), and Accuracy (97.484%), demonstrating superior generalization and robustness under complex conditions.”
