This survey reviews recent advances in converting non‑invasive EEG signals into images, text, and audio using generative AI techniques such as GANs, VAEs, transformers, and diffusion models. It summarizes datasets, feature‑encoding methods, evaluation metrics, and key challenges, noting that EEG‑to‑image models mainly use encoder‑decoder architectures, EEG‑to‑text leverages transformer language models, and EEG‑to‑audio maps signals to mel‑spectrograms for vocoder synthesis. The paper highlights the limitations of small, heterogeneous datasets, poor cross‑subject generalization, and the lack of standardized benchmarks, while providing open‑source resources to support reproducible research.

MANAS-2 is a new EEG foundation model that integrates a Raw‑Band Hybrid masked autoencoder with a physics‑motivated Constrained Reconstruction (ConRec) regularizer. ConRec penalizes RMS energy differences in short temporal windows, guiding the encoder toward oscillatory‑envelope organization. Across seven held‑out EEG datasets, adding ConRec improves spectral‑power recovery (R² from 0.860 to 0.906) and band‑energy dynamics (R² from 0.283 to 0.354), while maintaining strong temporal waveform recoverability and outperforming leading EEG models on downstream tasks.

The paper introduces Diffusion-Conditioned Representation Alignment (DCRA), a training framework that uses the forward diffusion process as a structured corruption scheduler for time‑series representation learning. DCRA aligns representations across noise levels with a feature‑level consistency objective, preserving class‑discriminative structure and enabling smooth, semantically coherent trajectories in latent space. Experiments on the CHB‑MIT EEG dataset demonstrate that DCRA improves seizure detection performance under various noise conditions, achieving higher sensitivity at low false‑positive rates and producing more balanced, structured representations than baseline methods.
