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.

One Model for All: Universal Pre-training for EEG based Emotion Recognition across Heterogeneous Datasets and Paradigms

The paper introduces ‘One Model for All’, a universal pre‑training framework that tackles EEG‑based emotion recognition across diverse datasets and paradigms. It decouples learning into a univariate self‑supervised contrastive pre‑training stage using a Unified Channel Schema, followed by a multivariate fine‑tuning stage that employs an Adaptive Resampling Transformer and a Graph Attention Network to model spatio‑temporal dependencies. Experiments demonstrate state‑of‑the‑art performance on within‑subject benchmarks (SEED 99.27%, DEAP 93.69%, DREAMER 93.93%) and superior cross‑dataset transfer, with ablation studies highlighting the critical role of the GAT module.

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.

Rhamba: Region-Aware Hybrid Attention-Mamba Framework for Self-Supervised Learning in Resting-State fMRI

Rhamba is a region‑aware pretraining framework for resting‑state fMRI that combines anatomically guided masking with hybrid Attention‑Mamba architectures. The study pretrained models on the ABIDE dataset using three masking strategies (Any, Majority, Pure) and evaluated four architectural variants, finding that the Mamba‑Attention (MA) hybrid achieved the best average AUROC on downstream schizophrenia and ADHD classification tasks. Explainable AI via Integrated Gradients highlighted that performance depends on the interaction between masking strategy and architecture rather than a single dominant configuration.

LEAD: An EEG Foundation Model for Alzheimer's Disease Detection

LEAD is a gated temporal‑spatial Transformer foundation model designed for EEG‑based Alzheimer's disease detection. It was trained on the world’s largest EEG‑AD corpus of 2,238 subjects and uses a subject‑regularized strategy and medical contrastive learning across 13 datasets. LEAD outperforms existing methods on five downstream AD datasets, achieving the best average ranking across 20 evaluations.

STST-JEPA: Shallow-Target Spatio-Temporal Joint Embedding Prediction Architecture For EEG Self-Supervised Learning

arXiv:2607. 06629v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Brain age -- the age inferred from a physiological recording -- is an emerging biomarker whose deviation from chronological age tracks neurological and psychiatric burden, and EEG is an attractive substrate for it because it is cheap, portable, and temporally rich.
