AutoBCI is an agentic framework that uses a Designer Agent and a Forecaster Agent to discover and select EEG decoding architectures across diverse tasks such as emotion recognition, motor imagery, and sleep staging. The Designer Agent performs Pool‑Guided Architecture Discovery (PGAD) to generate and refine models, while the Forecaster Agent uses Performance Estimation from Early Knowledge (PEEK) to predict full‑budget validation performance from early learning curves. In experiments on 14 EEG datasets, AutoBCI with Claude Opus 5.5 achieved a 64.16% average test balanced accuracy, slightly surpassing the best baseline, and PEEK reduced prediction error by 38.1% compared to the best-observed-score baseline.

Automated detection of interictal epileptiform discharges in scalp electroencephalography (EEG) is clinically important, but recent high-performing deep-learning models often trade interpretability for accuracy. We introduce EEG-SpikeAgent, a closed-loop program-synthesis framework that uses a large language model (LLM) agentic system to generate signal-processing features for spike detection in scalp EEG.

The paper evaluates five publicly released EEG foundation models and an in‑house JEPA‑style model using a protocol that includes three key controls: an untrained encoder, spectral band‑power features, and a probe layer selected without test‑set look‑ahead. The study finds that selecting the probe layer by test score can modestly improve peak performance and alter the peak‑versus‑output relationship, that random initialization can match or surpass pretraining on certain tasks, and that full fine‑tuning rarely yields gains beyond seed variability. These findings lead the authors to propose four new reporting practices and to release all experimental results for re‑analysis.

ThinkNet is a validation‑controlled framework that uses train‑only normalization, evolutionary search guided by validation, and validation‑gated inference to build compact motor‑imagery EEG decoders that generalize to unseen subjects. In a fixed benchmark on the BCI Competition IV‑2a dataset, the best single model achieved 44.35 % accuracy with only 4.9 k parameters, while a compact ensemble of six families reached 43.31 % accuracy. Across a broader search, models with ≤25 k parameters outperformed larger ones after retraining, but validation reliability remains a bottleneck under subject shift.

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.
