CSTNet: A Generative Framework for EEG-to-ECoG Mapping via Optimal Transport
摘要
Electroencephalography (EEG) and electrocorticography (ECoG) are complementary neuroimaging techniques, balancing non-invasiveness (EEG) and high spatial resolution (ECoG). Conventional EEG inverse solutions face spatial blurring and mislocalization due to mathematical constraints. We propose Cortical Signal Transformation Network (CSTNet), a deep learning framework that leverages Optimal Transport (OT) to directly map EEG scalp potentials to ECoG-equivalent cortical signals. Through OT-based geometric alignment of paired EEG-ECoG data, CSTNet bypasses explicit noise modeling assumptions while preserving cortical signal topology. This approach bridges EEG’s safety with ECoG-like accuracy, advancing applications in epilepsy surgery planning and brain-computer interfaces.
