Cross-Subject Generalization in Decoding Perceived Speech from Non-Invasive Brain Recordings

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The paper introduces a Cross-Subject Perceived Speech Decoding (CPSD) framework that tackles the challenge of decoding perceived speech from non‑invasive brain recordings across different subjects. CPSD uses a two‑stage training process: first, contrastive learning pre‑trains a source model on multiple subjects to capture shared representations; second, personal specialization fine‑tunes the model for a target subject by extracting consistent components and further training on that subject’s data. A Positional Encoding‑based Spatial Attention (PESA) module is added to remap MEG/EEG data into a standardized reference space, improving cross‑subject consistency. Evaluations on three datasets (Armeni 2022, PKUEEG 2025, Broderick 2018) show that CPSD outperforms baseline methods by more than 6.8%, 15.4%, and 15.8% in Top‑10 accuracy, demonstrating its effectiveness, efficiency, and robustness.

Subject-Invariant Cross-Modal Decoding of Perceived Speech from Brain Recordings

The paper introduces the Subject-Invariant Cross-Modal Perceived Speech Decoding (SICMD) method, which fuses fMRI and MEG data to decode perceived speech from non‑invasive brain signals. Comprehensive experiments show that SICMD improves Top‑1, Top‑10, and Rankacc scores by over 10%, 10%, and 1.7% respectively, while cutting training costs by 88.8% and 60.5% compared to existing multi‑subject and intra‑subject approaches. Visualizations further confirm the method’s effectiveness.

Brain foundation model-guided source-selective domain adaptation for cross-subject EEG decoding

The paper introduces BFM-MSDA, a brain foundation model-guided multi-source domain adaptation framework for cross-subject motor‑imagery EEG decoding. It first uses pretrained brain foundation model representations to estimate source–target compatibility and select relevant source subjects. A relevance-weighted dual alignment strategy then aligns marginal and conditional feature distributions, achieving higher accuracies on two public MI‑EEG benchmarks and demonstrating the benefits of informed source selection.
