Utilizing Cognitive Signals Generated during Human Reading to Enhance Keyphrase Extraction from Microblogs

Microblogging platforms generate massive amounts of short, noisy, and dispersed user content, making automatic keyphrase extraction (AKE) an important but challenging task. Prior studies have used eye-tracking signals to improve microblog-based AKE because such signals reflect readers' attention to salient words.

EEG-Captioner: Grounding EEG-to-Language Generation in Fundamental Signal Properties

EEG-Captioner introduces a new EEG-to-language framework that grounds language generation in measurable EEG signal properties. The authors built a large dataset of 160,781 EEG segments annotated with question‑answer pairs targeting spectral, spatial, temporal, and lateral properties, and paired each segment with a feature‑grounded caption. Their Dual‑Domain EEG Encoder jointly models temporal waveforms and spectral‑spatial representations, achieving a macro‑averaged balanced accuracy of 88.81% on signal‑level QA and improving caption factual consistency from 82.06% to 83.46% compared to caption‑only models.

The Cognitive Cost of LLM Writing: A Reading-Time Comparison with Human Text

The study examines how reading times differ between human-written texts and rewrites generated by large language models (LLMs). Using a RoBERTa-RT model trained on eye-tracking data, the authors compare predicted reading times for 496 paired articles and find that LLM rewrites are shorter overall but have higher predicted reading times per word. These differences correlate with linguistic changes such as longer, less frequent words, greater lexical diversity, and higher contextual predictability.

LEXIC: Lightweight Eye-tracking eXtension via Injected Complexity

arXiv:2607. 08152v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: On the recent EyeBench benchmark, predicting reading comprehension from eye movements exposes a stark gap: text-aware models using pretrained language models reach 56--63% AUROC, while gaze-only models operate at chance.

EEG-to-Report: An Annotation and Feature-Text Framework for Training Language Models on Clinical EEG

EEG-to-Report is a browser-based annotation and feature‑text framework that links routine EEG review with the creation of AI‑ready datasets. It ingests multi‑format EEG data, standardizes channels, and provides an interactive viewer with a multimodal annotation layer that combines typed text and transcribed voice notes. For each annotated segment, a feature extraction engine computes standardized spectral, temporal, entropy, Hjorth, connectivity, and spike‑related descriptors, stored alongside clinical descriptions in a portable JSON schema, producing aligned feature‑text pairs for training multimodal EEG‑language models. The framework also includes an auto‑report module that uses an ensemble of convolutional networks and a large language model to draft clinical narratives for neurologist review, thereby streamlining annotation workflows and enabling editable draft reports.

Decoding silent reading from non-invasive EEG

arXiv:2608. 20186v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Non-invasive decoding of inner speech faces a fundamental data problem: a corpus pairing brain activity with a person's spontaneous inner monologue cannot be collected, and the available proxy paradigms (cued repetitive and retrospectively reported generative inner speech) are slow to acquire, poorly time-locked, and subject compliance is unverifiable.

Is EEG-to-Text Feasible in Real-World Scenarios? An In-Depth Analysis Using a Neuropsychology-Inspired Benchmark

arXiv:2607. 18749v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Translating brain signals into text could restore communication for people with severe paralysis, yet practically usable systems to date rely on invasive electrocorticography (ECoG).

Reader Proficiency Shapes Layer-wise Surprisal Profiles

The study examines how reader proficiency influences the relationship between layer-wise surprisal from large language models (LLMs) and eye-tracking gaze measures. Using the MECO L2 corpus, researchers compared high- and low-proficiency readers on first-pass gaze duration (FPGD) and total gaze duration (TGD), finding that lower-proficiency readers exhibit deeper Predictive Depth for FPGD, while TGD shows deeper Predictive Depth across both groups. The results suggest that the distribution of predictive power across LLM layers relates to the timing and breadth of reading processes and varies with reader proficiency.
