Lightweight Test-Time Adaptation for EMG-Based Gesture Recognition

arXiv:2601. 04181v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Reliable long-term decoding of gestures from surface electromyography (EMG) is hindered by signal drift caused by electrode displacement, muscle fatigue, and/or posture changes.

MyoFlow: Anchor-Tied Rectified Flow for HD-sEMG Gesture Recognition Across Sessions and Subjects

MyoFlow introduces a discriminative flow-matching framework for high‑density surface electromyography (HD‑sEMG) gesture recognition that addresses distribution shifts caused by electrode re‑donning and physiological variability. By using a domain‑conditioned rectified flow to transport encoded windows toward gesture anchors, the method enables zero‑shot prediction without a separate classifier head. On the Hyser dataset, MyoFlow outperforms the strongest diffusion‑based baseline by 4.24 % in cross‑session accuracy and 6.37 % in cross‑subject accuracy, and achieves 91.71 % mean zero‑shot accuracy and 97.39 % mean few‑shot accuracy on the CEMHSEY dataset.

BRIDGE-EEG: Bridging Self-Supervised Pretraining and Efficient Deployment for Cross-Dataset EEG Classification

BRIDGE-EEG is an efficient multi‑task EEG classification pipeline that leverages self‑supervised pretraining while dramatically reducing model size. It maps heterogeneous EEG recordings to a unified 62‑channel time‑frequency representation, pretrains an SE‑ResNet18 teacher with SimCLR, and distills it into smaller SE‑ResNet8 and SE‑ResNet4 students. The compact models achieve accuracy comparable to or better than larger foundation models on abnormality detection and emotion recognition, and they consume up to three times less energy on edge devices, enabling deployment on wearable hardware.

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.

Applicability of memorization indicators for early spotting of overfitting while recalibrating sEMG-decoders on low sample sizes

arXiv:2606. 27855v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep learning models for surface electromyography (sEMG) can benefit substantially from subject-specific (re-)calibration, since no sufficiently large and diverse datasets are available to train fully generic decoders.
