The paper introduces AFOR, a tensor‑wise adaptive optimizer for EEG decoding that replaces the fixed second‑moment decay coefficient used in Adam/AdamW with a dynamic coefficient estimated online from local gradient state. AFOR combines a Residual‑Alignment Signal Scorer (RASS) to assess gradient quality and an Adaptive Forgetting Controller (AFC) to map this score to a bounded per‑step decay coefficient, with cumulative‑product initialization correction for consistency. In cross‑subject experiments on three EEG benchmarks, AFOR outperforms standard optimizers, improving mean test accuracy by 3.00%, 2.07%, and 4.38% over Adam.

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.
