Multimodal Pretraining for Generalizable EEG Representation Learning
arXiv:2607. 21384v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Electroencephalography (EEG) models used for epilepsy are often limited to specific datasets and tasks.
arXiv:2606. 00074v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reliable seizure prediction is a prerequisite for closed-loop neurostimulation therapy, yet existing methods rarely account for the variability in EEG signal quality encountered in real-world deployment, and the overwhelming majority adopt non-strict evaluation protocols that overestimate generalisation performance.

NeuroAtlas is the largest EEG benchmark to date, comprising 42 datasets and 260,000 hours of clinical EEG data across epilepsy, sleep medicine, brain age estimation, and brain‑computer interfaces. The study evaluates foundation models (FMs) for EEG against supervised baselines and generic time‑series FMs, finding that EEG‑specific FMs do not consistently outperform generic ones. It also demonstrates that standard machine‑learning metrics are inadequate for clinical relevance, advocating for task‑specific measures such as event‑level decision quality, hypnogram features, and brain‑age gap.

The study investigates whether Low‑Rank Adaptation (LoRA) can adapt three pretrained EEG foundation models—LaBraM‑base, REVE‑base, and REVE‑large—for binary left‑ vs. right‑hand motor imagery decoding in stroke patients. Using subject‑wise five‑fold cross‑validation on the PhysioNet EEG Motor Movement/Imagery Dataset and a binary subset of the UET175 stroke dataset, LoRA significantly improved accuracy for LaBraM‑base (0.822) and REVE‑base (0.957) on the healthy cohort, but only REVE‑base LoRA achieved high performance (0.847±0.194) on stroke data, with a best mean accuracy of 0.952 in leave‑one‑subject‑out evaluation. The results demonstrate that healthy‑benchmark performance does not guarantee transfer to stroke EEG, highlighting the need for target‑domain adaptation and subject‑level assessment in rehabilitation BCIs.

RobustSeiz is an open‑source, model‑agnostic framework designed to benchmark the robustness of EEG seizure detection models under realistic clinical stressors. It standardizes four public scalp‑EEG corpora into BIDS‑EEG trees, applies controlled distribution shifts—including environmental, noise, and adversarial transforms—across predefined hyperparameter grids, and reports comprehensive performance metrics such as sensitivity, precision, F1, false positives per 24 h, onset timing, and predictive agreement. The framework offers a Dockerized GPU pipeline, experiment registry, and both full‑evaluation and research‑subset modes, and demonstrates its utility by evaluating a contemporary detector on TUSZ across the full shift grid.
