MANAS-2: Constrained Reconstruction for EEG Foundation Models

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.

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.

Neonatal Hypoxic-ischaemic Encephalopathy Classification from the EEG and HRV Signals Using a Conformer based Masked Autoencoder

arXiv:2607. 23554v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In this paper, we propose the MAEConformer, a novel self-supervised learning framework that combines the Conformer architecture with the Masked Autoencoder (MAE) paradigm for large-scale representation learning from unlabelled electroencephalography (EEG) and heart rate variability (HRV) signals.
