SplashNet: Split‑and‑Share Encoders for Accurate and Efficient Typing with Surface Electromyography

Nima Ryan Hadidi, Jason Chan, Ebrahim Feghhi, Jonathan Kao

NeurIPS 2025poster

Surface electromyography (sEMG) at the wrists could enable natural, keyboard‑free text entry, yet the state‑of‑the‑art emg2qwerty baseline still misrecognizes 51.8\% of characters zero‑shot on unseen users and 7.0\% after user‑specific fine‑tuning. We trace much of these errors to mismatched cross‑u…

Time-Masked Transformers with Lightweight Test-Time Adaptation for Neural Speech Decoding

Ebrahim Feghhi, Shreyas Kaasyap, Nima Ryan Hadidi, Jonathan Kao

NeurIPS 2025poster

Speech neuroprostheses aim to restore communication for people with severe paralysis by decoding speech directly from neural activity. To accelerate algorithmic progress, a recent benchmark released intracranial recordings from a paralyzed participant attempting to speak, along with a baseline decod…
