Abstract:Motor imagery electroencephalography (MI-EEG) decoding offers a non-invasive route for post-stroke rehabilitation, but cross-patient use remains difficult because pathological neural reorganization changes task-related EEG dynamics, aperiodic activity, local excitability, cross-regional coordination, and trial-level brain-state context. This makes source-learned MI representations unreliable for unseen patients. To address this problem, we propose CFSPMNet, a cross-patient adaptation framework that models post-stroke MI-EEG as latent neural-state organization. CFSPMNet combines a Fourier-Reorganized State Mamba Network (FRSM) with Shared-Private Prototype Matching (SPPM). FRSM represents each trial as a latent physiological token sequence, reorganizes token states in the Fourier domain, and uses Fourier-derived trial context to guide Mamba state-space propagation. SPPM improves target pseudo-label updating by combining semantic confidence with shared-private physiological consistency, filtering confident but physiologically inconsistent target predictions. Leave-one-subject-out experiments on two stroke MI-EEG datasets show that CFSPMNet outperforms representative CNN-, Transformer-, Mamba-, and adaptation-based baselines, achieving average accuracies of 68.23% on XW-Stroke and 73.33% on 2019-Stroke, with gains of 5.63 and 8.25 percentage points over the strongest competitors. Ablation, sensitivity, feature-alignment, pseudo-label selection, and neurophysiological visualization analyses further support the roles of Fourier-domain token-state reorganization and calibrated pseudo-label updating. These results suggest that latent neural-state modeling can improve rehabilitation-oriented cross-patient BCI decoding. Code is available at https://github.com/wxk1224/CFSPMNet.
Abstract:As sports training becomes more data-driven, traditional dart coaching based mainly on experience and visual observation is increasingly inadequate for high-precision, goal-oriented movements. Although prior studies have highlighted the importance of release parameters, joint motion, and coordination in dart throwing, most quantitative methods still focus on local variables, single-release metrics, or static template matching. These approaches offer limited support for personalized training and often overlook useful movement variability. This paper presents a data-driven dart training assistance system. The system creates a closed-loop framework spanning motion capture, feature modeling, and personalized feedback. Dart-throwing data were collected in markerless conditions using a Kinect 2.0 depth sensor and an optical camera. Eighteen kinematic features were extracted from four biomechanical dimensions: three-link coordination, release velocity, multi-joint angular configuration, and postural stability. Two modules were developed: a personalized optimal throwing trajectory model that combines historical high-quality samples with the minimum jerk criterion, and a motion deviation diagnosis and recommendation model based on z-scores and hierarchical logic. A total of 2,396 throwing samples from professional and non-professional athletes were collected. Results show that the system generates smooth personalized reference trajectories consistent with natural human movement. Case studies indicate that it can detect poor trunk stability, abnormal elbow displacement, and imbalanced velocity control, then provide targeted recommendations. The framework shifts dart evaluation from deviation from a uniform standard to deviation from an individual's optimal control range, improving personalization and interpretability for darts training and other high-precision target sports.
Abstract:Although obtaining deep brain activity from non-invasive scalp electroencephalography (sEEG) is crucial for neuroscience and clinical diagnosis, directly generating high-fidelity intracranial electroencephalography (iEEG) signals remains a largely unexplored field, limiting our understanding of deep brain dynamics. Current research primarily focuses on traditional signal processing or source localization methods, which struggle to capture the complex waveforms and random characteristics of iEEG. To address this critical challenge, this paper introduces NeuroFlowNet, a novel cross-modal generative framework whose core contribution lies in the first-ever reconstruction of iEEG signals from the entire deep temporal lobe region using sEEG signals. NeuroFlowNet is built on Conditional Normalizing Flow (CNF), which directly models complex conditional probability distributions through reversible transformations, thereby explicitly capturing the randomness of brain signals and fundamentally avoiding the pattern collapse issues common in existing generative models. Additionally, the model integrates a multi-scale architecture and self-attention mechanisms to robustly capture fine-grained temporal details and long-range dependencies. Validation results on a publicly available synchronized sEEG-iEEG dataset demonstrate NeuroFlowNet's effectiveness in terms of temporal waveform fidelity, spectral feature reproduction, and functional connectivity restoration. This study establishes a more reliable and scalable new paradigm for non-invasive analysis of deep brain dynamics. The code of this study is available in https://github.com/hdy6438/NeuroFlowNet
Abstract:High-resolution functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is essential for mapping human brain activity; however, it remains costly and logistically challenging. If comparable volumes could be generated directly from widely available scalp electroencephalography (EEG), advanced neuroimaging would become significantly more accessible. Existing EEG-to-fMRI generators rely on plain CNNs that fail to capture cross-channel time-frequency cues or on heavy transformer/GAN decoders that strain memory and stability. We propose Spec2VolCAMU-Net, a lightweight spectrogram-to-volume generator that confronts these issues via a Multi-directional Time-Frequency Convolutional Attention Encoder, stacking temporal, spectral and joint convolutions with self-attention, and a Vision-Mamba U-Net decoder whose linear-time state-space blocks enable efficient long-range spatial modelling. Trained end-to-end with a hybrid SSI-MSE loss, Spec2VolCAMU-Net achieves state-of-the-art fidelity on three public benchmarks, recording SSIMs of 0.693 on NODDI, 0.725 on Oddball and 0.788 on CN-EPFL, representing improvements of 14.5%, 14.9%, and 16.9% respectively over previous best SSIM scores. Furthermore, it achieves competitive PSNR scores, particularly excelling on the CN-EPFL dataset with a 4.6% improvement over the previous best PSNR, thus striking a better balance in reconstruction quality. The proposed model is lightweight and efficient, making it suitable for real-time applications in clinical and research settings. The code is available at https://github.com/hdy6438/Spec2VolCAMU-Net.
