Stress-Testing EEG Foundation Models for Clinical Decoding: Dataset Identity and Targeted Negative Controls

Pretrained EEG foundation models are increasingly proposed for clinical decoding, but their transfer across populations and robustness to negative controls remain unclear. We benchmark six models (LaBraM, EEGMamba, CBraMod, REVE, BENDR, and BIOT) on five clinical tasks across four datasets using frozen linear probes with leave-one-subject-out, subject-grouped, or explicitly identified recording-level splits.

Lightweight Adaptation of EEG Foundation Models for Stroke Motor Imagery Decoding: Domain Shift and Subject-Level Robustness

The study investigates whether Low‑Rank Adaptation (LoRA) can adapt three pretrained EEG foundation models—LaBraM‑base, REVE‑base, and REVE‑large—for binary left‑ vs. right‑hand motor imagery decoding in stroke patients. Using subject‑wise five‑fold cross‑validation on the PhysioNet EEG Motor Movement/Imagery Dataset and a binary subset of the UET175 stroke dataset, LoRA significantly improved accuracy for LaBraM‑base (0.822) and REVE‑base (0.957) on the healthy cohort, but only REVE‑base LoRA achieved high performance (0.847±0.194) on stroke data, with a best mean accuracy of 0.952 in leave‑one‑subject‑out evaluation. The results demonstrate that healthy‑benchmark performance does not guarantee transfer to stroke EEG, highlighting the need for target‑domain adaptation and subject‑level assessment in rehabilitation BCIs.

CLSP-REQA: A Real-Time Quality-Aware Closed-Loop Seizure Prediction Framework with Mamba-BiLSTM and Confidence-Gated Intervention

arXiv:2606. 00074v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reliable seizure prediction is a prerequisite for closed-loop neurostimulation therapy, yet existing methods rarely account for the variability in EEG signal quality encountered in real-world deployment, and the overwhelming majority adopt non-strict evaluation protocols that overestimate generalisation performance.
