Recent advances in fMRI pretraining have significantly improved visual decoding accuracy by leveraging cross-subject neuroimaging datasets. A prevailing strategy aligns individual fMRI signals into a shared feature space using subject-specific adapters, followed by a shared decoder. However, this un
Large Reasoning Language Models (LRMs) have recently shown remarkable performance in complex reasoning tasks, but their extensive reasoning chains incur substantial computational overhead.
