Robust Frequency-Calibrated Virtual EEG Channel Generation from Four Frontal Electrodes for Wearable EEG Augmentation

arXiv:2605. 29263v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Low-channel wearable electroencephalography (EEG) is attractive for long-term monitoring, but four frontal electrodes provide only a sparse and spatially biased view of distributed scalp activity.

MANAS-2: Constrained Reconstruction for EEG Foundation Models

MANAS-2 is a new EEG foundation model that integrates a Raw‑Band Hybrid masked autoencoder with a physics‑motivated Constrained Reconstruction (ConRec) regularizer. ConRec penalizes RMS energy differences in short temporal windows, guiding the encoder toward oscillatory‑envelope organization. Across seven held‑out EEG datasets, adding ConRec improves spectral‑power recovery (R² from 0.860 to 0.906) and band‑energy dynamics (R² from 0.283 to 0.354), while maintaining strong temporal waveform recoverability and outperforming leading EEG models on downstream tasks.

Neural State Prediction: Obstructing Shortcut Learning in EEG Foundation Models

Neural State Prediction (NSP) is a latent‑predictive framework designed to curb shortcut learning in EEG foundation models. By using a target encoder updated with an exponential moving average, identity residualization, and topology‑separated context, NSP constrains both the prediction target and the available context. Trained on 2.2 million EEG segments, NSP outperforms baselines on 14 datasets in the EEG‑FM‑Bench, achieving 63.94 % macro balanced accuracy.

LuMamba: Latent Unified Mamba for Electrode Topology-Invariant and Efficient EEG Modeling

arXiv:2603. 19100v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Electroencephalography (EEG) enables non-invasive monitoring of brain activity across clinical and neurotechnology applications, yet building foundation models for EEG remains challenging due to differing electrode topologies and computational scalability, as Transformer architectures incur quadratic sequence complexity.

BRIDGE-EEG: Bridging Self-Supervised Pretraining and Efficient Deployment for Cross-Dataset EEG Classification

BRIDGE-EEG is an efficient multi‑task EEG classification pipeline that leverages self‑supervised pretraining while dramatically reducing model size. It maps heterogeneous EEG recordings to a unified 62‑channel time‑frequency representation, pretrains an SE‑ResNet18 teacher with SimCLR, and distills it into smaller SE‑ResNet8 and SE‑ResNet4 students. The compact models achieve accuracy comparable to or better than larger foundation models on abnormality detection and emotion recognition, and they consume up to three times less energy on edge devices, enabling deployment on wearable hardware.
