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.

Adaptive Forgetting for Nonstationary Optimization: Towards Robust EEG Decoding

The paper introduces AFOR, a tensor‑wise adaptive optimizer for EEG decoding that replaces the fixed second‑moment decay coefficient used in Adam/AdamW with a dynamic coefficient estimated online from local gradient state. AFOR combines a Residual‑Alignment Signal Scorer (RASS) to assess gradient quality and an Adaptive Forgetting Controller (AFC) to map this score to a bounded per‑step decay coefficient, with cumulative‑product initialization correction for consistency. In cross‑subject experiments on three EEG benchmarks, AFOR outperforms standard optimizers, improving mean test accuracy by 3.00%, 2.07%, and 4.38% over Adam.

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.

Test-Time Adaptation for EEG Foundation Models: A Systematic Study under Real-World Distribution Shifts

arXiv:2604. 16926v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Electroencephalography (EEG) foundation models have shown strong potential for learning generalizable representations from large-scale neural data, yet their clinical deployment is hindered by distribution shifts across clinical settings, devices, and populations.
