arXiv:2608. 20186v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Non-invasive decoding of inner speech faces a fundamental data problem: a corpus pairing brain activity with a person's spontaneous inner monologue cannot be collected, and the available proxy paradigms (cued repetitive and retrospectively reported generative inner speech) are slow to acquire, poorly time-locked, and subject compliance is unverifiable.
Short segments of perceived speech can be retrieved from non-invasive magnetoencephalographic (MEG) recordings by deep networks trained with a CLIP-style objective against wav2vec 2. 0 audio embeddings.
arXiv:2604. 16370v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Decoding natural language from non-invasive electroencephalography (EEG) remains constrained by low signal-to-noise ratio and limited information bandwidth.
The paper introduces a Cross-Subject Perceived Speech Decoding (CPSD) framework that tackles the challenge of decoding perceived speech from non‑invasive brain recordings across different subjects. CPSD uses a two‑stage training process: first, contrastive learning pre‑trains a source model on multiple subjects to capture shared representations; second, personal specialization fine‑tunes the model for a target subject by extracting consistent components and further training on that subject’s data. A Positional Encoding‑based Spatial Attention (PESA) module is added to remap MEG/EEG data into a standardized reference space, improving cross‑subject consistency. Evaluations on three datasets (Armeni 2022, PKUEEG 2025, Broderick 2018) show that CPSD outperforms baseline methods by more than 6.8%, 15.4%, and 15.8% in Top‑10 accuracy, demonstrating its effectiveness, efficiency, and robustness.
Brain2Qwerty v2 is a model that decodes natural sentences from real‑time magnetoencephalography (MEG) recordings, achieving an average word error rate of 39% across 22,000 sentences typed by nine subjects. The model uses character, word, and sentence‑level representations and shows that decoding accuracy improves log‑linearly with more data, narrowing the gap to intracranial brain‑computer interfaces. AI contributes by replacing hand‑crafted event detection with deep learning, fine‑tuning large language models for semantic extraction, and employing AI agents to refine the decoding pipeline through automated code development.

iMINDBench is a new benchmark for intracranial electroencephalography (iEEG) neural decoding that evaluates models on fifteen tasks across three naturalistic movie‑watching datasets from multiple institutions. It standardizes preprocessing tracks and evaluation splits to enable consistent comparisons. The study shows that pretrained systems outperform baselines within their tracks, but strong spectral baselines remain competitive, and scaling up supervised data yields only modest or task‑dependent gains.
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%.
