Decoding silent reading from non-invasive EEG

Non-invasive decoding of inner speech faces a fundamental data problem: a corpus pairing brain activity with a person's spontaneous inner monologue cannot be collected, and the available proxy paradigms (cued repetitive and retrospectively reported generative inner speech) are slow to acquire, poorly time-locked, and subject compliance is unverifiable. We therefore treat silent reading as a scalable proxy task and ask how much lexical and semantic information a contrastive decoder can extract from it. We report an open-vocabulary analysis of approximately 240,000 word presentations recorded...
