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%.

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.

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.

The paper introduces Variance‑Calibrated Modulation (VCM), a training‑free pre‑decoding technique that reshapes language model probability distributions before truncation. VCM uses two dynamic mechanisms: a Contextual Searchlight via PMI to suppress stopwords and highlight context‑relevant tokens, and an Adaptive Self‑Debiasing that applies scale‑invariant penalization based on real‑time logit standard deviation. Experiments on open‑ended generation, factual QA, and mathematical reasoning show that VCM consistently reduces the likelihood trap, improving diversity, coherence, and reasoning accuracy with minimal computational cost.
