This survey reviews recent advances in converting non‑invasive EEG signals into images, text, and audio using generative AI techniques such as GANs, VAEs, transformers, and diffusion models. It summarizes datasets, feature‑encoding methods, evaluation metrics, and key challenges, noting that EEG‑to‑image models mainly use encoder‑decoder architectures, EEG‑to‑text leverages transformer language models, and EEG‑to‑audio maps signals to mel‑spectrograms for vocoder synthesis. The paper highlights the limitations of small, heterogeneous datasets, poor cross‑subject generalization, and the lack of standardized benchmarks, while providing open‑source resources to support reproducible research.
arXiv:2503. 02636v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Resting-state EEG provides a non-invasive view of spontaneous brain activity, but extracting meaningful patterns is often limited by scarce high-quality data and reliance on manually engineered features.
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.

arXiv:2606. 00121v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reconstructing visual stimuli from brain recordings has been a meaningful and challenging task in brain decoding.
The paper presents a reproducible single‑subject baseline for reconstructing visual stimuli from EEG using a temporal‑spatial convolutional encoder that maps averaged EEG signals to 512‑dimensional ViT-B/32 image features. On the THINGS‑EEG2 dataset, the model achieves 12.83%, 39.17%, and 58.00% image recall at ranks 1, 5, and 10, respectively, outperforming analytical chance levels. The study also shows that performance drops sharply when applying a model trained on one subject to others, and that direct conditional generators without external visual weights produce noise‑dominated outputs, indicating that only coarse semantic decoding is feasible under the tested protocol.
arXiv:2607. 25626v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Decoding speech information directly from scalp electroencephalography (EEG) into text provides a potential non-invasive neural communication pathway for individuals with severe speech and motor impairments.
EEG-to-Report is a browser-based annotation and feature‑text framework that links routine EEG review with the creation of AI‑ready datasets. It ingests multi‑format EEG data, standardizes channels, and provides an interactive viewer with a multimodal annotation layer that combines typed text and transcribed voice notes. For each annotated segment, a feature extraction engine computes standardized spectral, temporal, entropy, Hjorth, connectivity, and spike‑related descriptors, stored alongside clinical descriptions in a portable JSON schema, producing aligned feature‑text pairs for training multimodal EEG‑language models. The framework also includes an auto‑report module that uses an ensemble of convolutional networks and a large language model to draft clinical narratives for neurologist review, thereby streamlining annotation workflows and enabling editable draft reports.
