OneEEG is a unified signal‑visual multimodal language model designed for multi‑task EEG understanding. It jointly learns from numerical EEG data and visual EEG renderings, employing a task‑aware Mixture of Projectors to align diverse EEG features with a large language model’s embedding space. The authors introduce the OneEEG‑Instruct dataset for instruction tuning and the OneEEG‑Bench benchmark to evaluate performance, demonstrating that existing multimodal LLMs struggle with EEG inputs while OneEEG outperforms them across various tasks.

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.

Brain4FMs is a unified benchmark for evaluating brain foundation models (BFMs) on both scalp EEG and intracranial EEG (iEEG). It incorporates 17 representative models and 21 public datasets spanning clinical diagnosis, sleep staging, communication, and affective computing, and offers dataset-aware preprocessing, cross‑subject evaluation, and standardized downstream workflows. The benchmark highlights that no single BFM consistently outperforms others across all tasks, modalities, and adaptation protocols, prompting further exploratory analyses of model‑specific spatial, spectral, and discrete representations.

The paper proposes using healthy normative references to improve EEG-based detection of major depressive disorder. Two diagnostic methods are introduced: Scalar-level Normative Deviation-guided Diagnosis (S‑NDD) and Feature-level Normative Deviation-guided Diagnosis (F‑NDD), both leveraging deviations from healthy EEG patterns and integrating them with deep representations. Experiments on two public datasets show that these approaches perform well in both subject-independent within-source and cross-source evaluations.

The paper introduces TriDim, a reusable block that preserves the three EEG axes—channel, short‑term temporal, and long‑term temporal—by applying feed‑forward transformations and cross‑axis attention. Stacking these blocks yields TriDimEEG, a standalone EEG decoder that outperforms fifteen other models on eight datasets, achieving a 4.3% relative accuracy gain. Replacing Transformer blocks in existing EEG foundation models with TriDim blocks improves downstream accuracy by 7.4% on average while reducing parameters by 17.0% to 47.3%.
