NeuroAtlas: Benchmarking Foundation Models for Clinical EEG and Brain-Computer Interfaces

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: A Benchmark of Foundation Models for Electrical Brain Signal

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.

EEG-AS: Instance-Level Foundation Model Selection for EEG Foundation Models via Behavior Reconstruction

EEG-AS is an instance-level algorithm selection framework designed for EEG foundation models. It characterizes each EEG instance using latent embeddings, handcrafted neurophysiological features, and an anchor foundation model, then learns to reconstruct the behaviors of other foundation models from privileged prediction tokens. During inference, EEG-AS estimates these behaviors without running the full model portfolio, enabling efficient selection among seven EEG foundation models and significantly reducing the performance gap between the single best solver and the oracle upper bound across seven public EEG benchmarks.

EEG Benchmarking Needs a Task Specification Layer: NeuroDoc for Rulebook-Guided, Executable Benchmark Construction

Electroencephalography (EEG) foundation models increasingly rely on multi-dataset training and evaluation, yet public EEG datasets still lack a shared task specification layer that can turn heterogeneous recordings into reusable benchmark units. Existing standards organize files, metadata, and provenance, but they do not specify EEG tasks under a common language and rulebook, leaving critical task semantics scattered across papers, code, and manual interpretation.
