iMINDBench: iEEG Multi-Institution Neural Decoding Benchmark

iMINDBench is a new benchmark for intracranial electroencephalography (iEEG) neural decoding that evaluates models on fifteen tasks across three naturalistic movie‑watching datasets from multiple institutions. It standardizes preprocessing tracks and evaluation splits to enable consistent comparisons. The study shows that pretrained systems outperform baselines within their tracks, but strong spectral baselines remain competitive, and scaling up supervised data yields only modest or task‑dependent gains.

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.

One Model for All: Universal Pre-training for EEG based Emotion Recognition across Heterogeneous Datasets and Paradigms

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.
