BIT-LLM: Brain Instruction Tuned LLM with persistent Cross-Attention for fMRI-to-Text Decoding
ICML 2026poster
Decoding fMRI into natural language is challenging because strong, pre-trained language priors can dominate autoregressive generation, obscuring whether a model truly utilizes neural evidence. We introduce BIT-LLM, which exposes fMRI-derived tokens as a persistent key–value memory through interleave…
