Multi-Feature Riemannian Hypergraph for Online Test-Time Adaptation of Motor Imagery Brain-Computer Interface

In clinical motor imagery brain-computer interface (MI-BCI) decoding, cross-day transferability and online operation remain two critical challenges. Hypergraphs can improve transferability by capturing higher-order sample relationships, yet existing hypergraph-based methods for online emotion recognition neglect the cross-day benefits of Riemannian geometry widely adopted in EEG transfer learning. To bridge this gap, we propose the Multi-feature Riemannian Hypergraph (MRieHy), a framework tailored for online test-time adaptation in MI-BCI decoding that leverages Riemannian geometry to strengthen cross-day transferability. MRieHy first computes Riemannian means of covariance matrices from cross-day training data to align multi-day distributions. It then constructs a hypergraph over covariance matrices using Riemannian distance, complemented by a second hypergraph over deep features built with cosine similarity. The two hypergraphs are fused via adaptively learned combination weights, jointly optimized with the label projection matrices. During online testing, MRieHy maintains a first-in-first-out buffer of recent samples, performs Riemannian alignment on the buffered data, and decodes with the learned hypergraph. Extensive experiments on a private four-class ECoG dataset and two public four-class EEG datasets validate that MRieHy achieves notable performance gains over state-of-the-art baselines.

Semi-parametric Memory Consolidation: Towards Brain-like Deep Continual Learning

Humans and most animals inherently possess a distinctive capacity to continually acquire novel experiences and accumulate worldly knowledge over time. This ability, termed continual learning, is also critical for deep neural networks (DNNs) to adapt to the dynamically evolving world in open environments. However, DNNs notoriously suffer from catastrophic forgetting of previously learned knowledge when trained on sequential tasks. In this work, inspired by the interactive human memory and learning system, we propose a novel biomimetic continual learning framework that integrates semi-parametric memory and the wake-sleep consolidation mechanism. For the first time, our method enables deep neural networks to retain high performance on novel tasks while maintaining prior knowledge in real-world challenging continual learning scenarios, e.g., class-incremental learning on ImageNet. This study demonstrates that emulating biological intelligence provides a promising path to enable deep neural networks with continual learning capabilities.

A Hybrid-Domain Floating-Point Compute-in-Memory Architecture for Efficient Acceleration of High-Precision Deep Neural Networks

Compute-in-memory (CIM) has shown significant potential in efficiently accelerating deep neural networks (DNNs) at the edge, particularly in speeding up quantized models for inference applications. Recently, there has been growing interest in developing floating-point-based CIM macros to improve the accuracy of high-precision DNN models, including both inference and training tasks. Yet, current implementations rely primarily on digital methods, leading to substantial power consumption. This paper introduces a hybrid domain CIM architecture that integrates analog and digital CIM within the same memory cell to efficiently accelerate high-precision DNNs. Specifically, we develop area-efficient circuits and energy-efficient analog-to-digital conversion techniques to realize this architecture. Comprehensive circuit-level simulations reveal the notable energy efficiency and lossless accuracy of the proposed design on benchmarks.
