A new research paper introduces EEG-FM-Audit, a systematic evaluation and analysis pipeline designed to address limitations in existing studies of EEG Foundation Models (FMs). The pipeline includes an ASHA-driven benchmarking protocol for fair comparisons, paradigm-level ablation studies to assess learning paradigms, and a neurophysiological probing framework for interpretability. Applied to several state-of-the-art EEG-FMs and supervised models, the audit revealed that well-tuned supervised baselines can rival or surpass FMs in performance with fewer parameters, and that FM paradigm effectiveness is dataset-dependent. The analysis also demonstrated how FMs utilize specific physiological features, paving the way for more interpretable neural decoding. AI
