DCRA: Diffusion-Conditioned Representation Alignment for Robust Time-Series Learning

The paper introduces Diffusion-Conditioned Representation Alignment (DCRA), a training framework that uses the forward diffusion process as a structured corruption scheduler for time‑series representation learning. DCRA aligns representations across noise levels with a feature‑level consistency objective, preserving class‑discriminative structure and enabling smooth, semantically coherent trajectories in latent space. Experiments on the CHB‑MIT EEG dataset demonstrate that DCRA improves seizure detection performance under various noise conditions, achieving higher sensitivity at low false‑positive rates and producing more balanced, structured representations than baseline methods.

EEGDM: Learning EEG Representation with Latent Diffusion Model

EEGDM introduces a self‑supervised framework that uses latent diffusion models to generate EEG signals, moving beyond traditional masked reconstruction. The method employs an EEG encoder to produce a compact representation that conditions the diffusion denoising process, allowing joint optimization of encoder and generator. Experiments demonstrate that EEGDM can reconstruct high‑quality EEG, learn robust representations, and perform competitively on various downstream tasks.

ProCA: Progressive Contrastive Alignment for Robust EEG Visual Decoding

ProCA: Progressive Contrastive Alignment for Robust EEG Visual Decoding introduces a model‑agnostic framework that adaptively aligns EEG signals with visual semantics. It replaces fixed visual or textual anchors with EEG‑aware class‑level contrastive supervision and employs structure‑consistent interpolation to preserve channel‑wise and temporal importance. Across multiple evaluation settings—including subject‑dependent, subject‑independent, strict cross‑subject transfer, and continual adaptation—ProCA delivers significant performance gains, achieving relative Top‑1 improvements ranging from 7.4% to 28.1%.

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.
