Semantic reconstruction of continuous language from non-invasive brain recordings
Open accessPublished version of a preprint
Abstract
A brain-computer interface that decodes continuous language from non-invasive recordings would have many scientific and practical applications. Currently, however, non-invasive language decoders can only identify stimuli from among a small set of words or phrases. Here we introduce a non-invasive decoder that reconstructs continuous language from cortical semantic representations recorded using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Given novel brain recordings, this decoder generates intelligible word sequences that recover the meaning of perceived speech, imagined speech and even silent videos, demonstrating that a single decoder can be applied to a range of tasks. We tested the decoder across cortex and found that continuous language can be separately decoded from multiple regions. As brain-computer interfaces should respect mental privacy, we tested whether successful decoding requires subject cooperation and found that subject cooperation is required both to train and to apply the decoder. Our findings demonstrate the viability of non-invasive language brain-computer interfaces.

Non-invasive techniques have facilitated decoding of limited vocabularies of imagined words, syllables and speech sounds and reconstruction of semantic content of speech.
“Although these non-invasive techniques have facilitated decoding of limited vocabularies of imagined words, syllables and speech sounds75,76 and reconstruction of semantic content of speech68 (Fig. 1; Tang et al. 2023), they are not portable — with the exception of EEG — and low spatial or temporal resolution has hindered scaling decoding to larger vocabularies and longer speech segments (senten”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
