REALM: Retrospective Encoder Alignment for LFP Modeling
Quick summary
arXiv:2605.14867v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Spike activity has been the dominant neural signal for behavior decoding because its high spatiotemporal resolution supports accurate decoding. However, as intracortical brain-computer interfaces (iBCIs) move toward higher channel counts and wireless operation, the high sampling rates required to record spikes create substantial power and bandwidth demands. Local field potentials (LFPs) offer complementary advantages, including greater long-term stability, lower energy consumption, and lower bandwidth requirements. However, LFP-based de
