LEAD: An EEG Foundation Model for Alzheimer's Disease Detection

LEAD is a gated temporal‑spatial Transformer foundation model designed for EEG‑based Alzheimer's disease detection. It was trained on the world’s largest EEG‑AD corpus of 2,238 subjects and uses a subject‑regularized strategy and medical contrastive learning across 13 datasets. LEAD outperforms existing methods on five downstream AD datasets, achieving the best average ranking across 20 evaluations.
