Does EEG Foundation Models Transfer to Speech? A Benchmark on Overt and Imagined Speech Decoding

EEG foundation models pretrained on thousands of hours have shown large gains over task-specific networks for motor imagery, seizure detection, sleep staging, and emotion recognition, but their transfer to speech decoding-arguably the most demanding non-invasive BCI application-remains untested. We present the first sy...
