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. 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. We validate the effectiveness of this framework through extensive experiments under cross-subject, cross-session, and cross-dataset settings. Our results show that the proposed framework exhibits the best and robust generalization performance both for our newly constructed ECoG and public EEG datasets.

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 combines three components: (1) channel attribute-based positional encoding, which identifies channels using their anatomical attributes and reference type; (2) dynamic channel projection, which preserves channel-specific information across varying numbers of EEG channels and combines textual reports with channel information to support channel-wise EEG-text matching; and (3) dual-level contrastive learning, which aligns EEG signals with text at both the individual-channel and whole-sample levels. Experimental results show that CAMEL-CLIP achieves the highest mean balanced accuracy among the evaluated baselines across multiple datasets under linear probing. CAMEL-CLIP also shows high classification performance when transferred between different channel configurations without classifier retraining.

Wearable devices generate continuous physiological and behavioral data, but converting these signals into clinically reviewable biomarker hypotheses remains labor-intensive. We introduce CoDaS, an AI co-data-scientist that integrates multi-agent hypothesis generation, deterministic statistical analysis, adversarial validation and literature-grounded interpretation under human oversight. Across three wearable cohorts comprising 9,279 participant-observations, CoDaS prioritized candidate associations for mental-health and metabolic endpoints after internal checks for replication, stability, robustness and leakage. The system identified related circadian-instability signals associated with depression, including sleep-duration variability in DWB ($ρ$ = 0.252, $p$ < 0.001) and sleep-onset variability in GLOBEM ($ρ$ = 0.126, $p$ < 0.001), and derived a wearable cardiovascular-fitness index associated with insulin resistance (steps/resting heart rate; $ρ$ = -0.374, $p$ < 0.001). Adding these features to demographic models produced modest gains ($ΔR^2$ = 0.040 for depression, 0.021 for insulin resistance). In a 12-clinician review totaling approximately 25 active hours, clinician validity judgments aligned with CoDaS confidence tiers ($ρ$ = 0.67, $p$ = 0.005), whereas added clinical value and confidence to act were rated lower. CoDaS supports traceable, hypothesis-generating prioritization of wearable candidate biomarkers.
