CAMEL-CLIP: Channel-aware Multimodal Electroencephalography-text Alignment for Generalizable Brain Foundation Models

Electroencephalography (EEG) foundation models have shown promise for learning generalizable representations, yet they remain sensitive to channel heterogeneity, such as changes in channel composition or ordering. We propose channel-aware multimodal EEG-text alignment contrastive language-image pretraining (CAMEL-CLIP), a contrastive EEG-text multimodal foundation model designed to be robust to heterogeneous channel configurations and widely applicable to diverse downstream tasks. CAMEL-CLIP introduces three key components: (1) channel attribute-based positional encoding, which identifies channels through semantic information; (2) dynamic channel projection, which generates variable-length embeddings by independently projecting each channel without feature compression; and (3) dual-level contrastive learning, which jointly performs channel-level and sample-level contrastive learning to capture both channel-specific and global signal characteristics. Experimental results demonstrate that CAMEL-CLIP achieves state-of-the-art performance under linear-probing and outperforms existing foundation models that rely on full-finetuning.

A swap-adversarial framework for improving domain generalization in electrocorticography-based Parkinson's disease classification

We propose a novel swap-adversarial framework that mitigates high inter-subject variability and the high-dimensional low-sample-size problem in electrocorticography (ECoG) data. It achieves robust domain generalization across ECoG and electroencephalography (EEG)-based brain-computer interface datasets. Our framework integrates (1) robust preprocessing, (2) inter-subject balanced channel swap (ISBCS) for cross-subject augmentation, and (3) domain-adversarial learning (DAL) to suppress subject-specific bias. The ISBCS method is a bio-inspired channel swapping strategy that exchanges only functionally corresponding channels across subjects, guided by a brain map, to mitigate inter-subject distribution differences. The DAL strategy encourages the model to learn task-relevant shared features. We validate the effectiveness of this framework through extensive experiments under cross-subject, cross-session, and cross-dataset settings. Our framework consistently outperforms all baselines across all settings, showing the most significant improvements in highly variable environments. It also achieves superior cross-dataset performance between public EEG benchmarks, demonstrating strong generalization capability not only for ECoG but also for EEG data. In addition, we introduce a new ECoG dataset, the first reproducible benchmark, which is constructed from long-term ECoG recordings of 6-hydroxydopamine-induced rat models and annotated with neural responses measured before and after electrical stimulation.

Explainable AI-Driven Neural Activity Analysis in Parkinsonian Rats under Electrical Stimulation

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by motor dysfunction and abnormal neural oscillations. These symptoms can be modulated through electrical stimulation. Traditional neural activity analysis in PD has typically relied on statistical methods, which often introduce bias owing to the need for expert-driven feature extraction. To address this limitation, we explore an explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) approach to analyze neural activity in Parkinsonian rats receiving electrical stimulation. Electrocorticogram (ECoG) signals were collected before and after electrical stimulation using graphene-based electrodes that enable less-invasive monitoring and stimulation in PD. EEGNet, a convolutional neural network, classified these ECoG signals into pre- and post-stimulation states. We applied layer-wise relevance propagation, an XAI technique, to identify key neural inputs contributing to the model's decisions, incorporating the spatial electrode information matched to the cortex map. The XAI analysis highlighted area-specific importance in beta and gamma frequency bands, which could not be detected through mean comparison analyses relying on feature extraction. These findings demonstrate the potential of XAI in analyzing neural dynamics in neurodegenerative disorders such as PD, suggesting that the integration of graphene-based electrodes with advanced deep learning models offers a promising solution for real-time PD monitoring and therapy.
