## Newest releases

### 6 November 2026

- [Filter-bank CCA, Riemannian and xDAWN baselines, ShallowFBCSPNet, Deep4Net and CSP+LDA](https://bci.report/protocols/) join the [core matrix](https://bci.report/#overview) under its exact protocols; cells that do not apply are marked apart from cells not run.
- Beside the matrix: [LaBraM at Scale and REVE Small](https://bci.report/topics/does-pretraining-help/#more-checkpoints) as frozen probes on every core protocol, random-initialization controls for five checkpoints, [Signal-JEPA and EEGSimpleConv](https://bci.report/protocols/mi-rest/#signal-jepa-eegsimpleconv) on two, and a log band-power ridge on seven.
- A simulated [cap shift](https://bci.report/topics/fewer-electrodes/#cap-shift) on BETA; a local test of NSP’s target components in [a panel of its own after the counted pilots](https://bci.report/topics/pilot-studies/#nsp-components); eldBETA’s 100 participants scored without training; ASEEG beside age and sex.

### 28 October 2026

- Seven more follow-ups on [SSVEP frequencies a decoder never trained on](https://bci.report/topics/new-ssvep-frequencies/#cross-spectral), among them filter-bank CCA, shorter windows, fewer electrodes and fixed harmonic weights, each beside its untrained control.
- Frozen-encoder probes in panels of their own: [NeuroRVQ](https://bci.report/topics/pilot-studies/#neurorvq) on arithmetic, motor imagery and P300, and [EEG-Captioner and AXON](https://bci.report/topics/pilot-studies/#eegmat-ten-second) on ten-second arithmetic and rest windows.
- Four more datasets [checked end to end](https://bci.report/topics/data-quality/), with a CCA baseline on Kim’s beta-range SSVEP, and [the open register](https://bci.report/methods/register/) extended to match.

### 20 October 2026

- The open register: [every EEG dataset we know of](https://bci.report/datasets/register/) and [every EEG model we track](https://bci.report/methods/register/), in 527 rows, each at the furthest step checked, with its gaps listed.
- Two new questions: what lets a decoder answer [SSVEP frequencies it never trained on](https://bci.report/topics/new-ssvep-frequencies/), and [what public EEG files show when checked end to end](https://bci.report/topics/data-quality/).
- [IESSEEG](https://bci.report/topics/clinical-groups/#iesseeg) infant case-control results with age and recording-setting controls, and [NeuroLM’s frozen features on EEGMAT](https://bci.report/topics/pilot-studies/#neurolm-eegmat) in a panel of their own.

## Corrections

Each correction to released wording is also made on the page that shows it; the released files keep their original bytes, whose SHA-256 values are in [the release archive](https://bci.report/releases/archive/).

| Date | Files | Correction |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 6 November 2026 | `experiments.json` · `arithmetic-rest-protocol.json` | The arithmetic-rest protocol’s limitations do not say that EEGMAT records rest before the task for every participant, as PhysioNet describes it. The protocol page states it beside the other limitations. [See the page →](https://bci.report/protocols/arithmetic-rest/#recording-order) |
| 6 November 2026 | `experiments.json` | The model directory’s notes in experiments.json say Signal-JEPA was not downloaded or executed, and EEGSimpleConv not executed, for that release. Both were run the same day in a separate study on motor imagery & rest and arithmetic & rest; their results are on those two protocol pages. [See the page →](https://bci.report/protocols/mi-rest/#signal-jepa-eegsimpleconv) |
| 1 October 2026 | `deployment-topics.json` | The ensemble-TRCA rows call the original method a three-filter-bank experiment. The original paper and the reference code’s tutorials use five sub-bands; three is only the default of the code’s functions. Our runs used one fixed band either way, and no score changes. [See the page →](https://bci.report/topics/calibration-budget/#methods-and-limits) |
| 1 October 2026 | `experiments.json` · `mi-rest-results.csv` · `mi-rest-protocol.json` · `deployment-topics.json` | The ds003810 credit links only the 2022 Data in Brief description. The OpenNeuro record asks users to cite Peterson, Galván, Hernández and Spies, Heliyon 6(3):e03425 (2020); the dataset page now gives both.

## Holds register

Each item held back, with the date its hold was opened and, where it was, resolved.

| Item | Opened | Status | Why |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| [Kim beta-range SSVEP · amplitude-dependent models](https://bci.report/topics/data-quality/#kim2025-beta-range) | 28 October 2026 | Open | Amplitude units, channel gains and the saved reference history are not established, so models whose output depends on amplitude are held on these files. Training-free CCA, which does not depend on a common amplitude scale, is published for all 40 participants. |
| [Damm finger motor imagery · one-person score](https://bci.report/topics/data-quality/#damm) | 28 October 2026 | Open | One participant’s two random-order runs, checked end to end: 150 delivered cues, and eight variants and controls fixed before scoring and independently audited. Every score is held under the one-person rule, by the owner’s decision; design, counts and file facts are published. |
| [NeBULA · one-person scores](https://bci.report/topics/data-quality/#nebula) | 28 October 2026 | Open | One participant reaching to three targets under free, low and high assistance: 89 delivered trials, with EEG, EMG and EEG plus EMG arms run and independently audited. Every score is held under the one-person rule, by the owner’s decision; design, counts and file facts are published. |
| [ZuCo on NEMAR · converted-run timing](https://bci.report/topics/data-quality/#zuco2) | 20 October 2026 | Open | In one converted run of ZuCo 2.0 on NEMAR, some fixation times fall outside the recording. No EEG–text score is computed until the converter’s timing rules and a source-checksummed fixture are available; no timing was corrected and no row removed. |
| [ds007420 · fNIRS classifier](https://bci.report/topics/beyond-scalp-eeg/#ds007420) | 12 October 2026 | Open | Its numeric task codes have no verified lookup to hands or movements, and its event durations disagree between the events table, the optical files and the cited paper, so no classifier was scored. Its optical coverage counts are published. |
| [Dreem sleep cohorts · neural-network and foundation models](https://bci.report/topics/sleep-staging/#held) | 3 October 2026 | Open | The stored signal metadata says millivolts; the publisher’s own converter treats the same arrays as microvolts. Models that need absolute amplitude are not run on a guessed unit, so no such score exists. The published baselines do not depend on the unit. |
| [Stieger longitudinal BCI · one-person pilot](https://bci.report/topics/model-adaptation/#cross-session) | 27 September 2026 | Open | The pipeline works on one person’s eleven sessions. With one person every score is that person’s, so none is published. |
| OpenNeuro ds004902 · paired sleep comparison | 23 September 2026 | Open | Five source payloads are shorter than their own headers declare. No score of any kind. |
| [Foundation models on the clinical set](https://bci.report/topics/clinical-groups/) | 23 September 2026 | Open | The source states no physical amplitude unit. Not run on an assumed one. |
| L-FAME | 22 September 2026 | Open | Not included on 22 September (intake only). Since 23 September: described, not scored; its per-condition numbers withheld. |
| [BNCI2015-001 · next-day adaptation](https://bci.report/topics/model-adaptation/#next-day) | 20 September 2026 | Open | Run and independently replayed on 22 September. The catalogue licence is CC BY-NC-ND and the description names no ethics approval, so no figure is published until that review is done. |

| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| [eldBETA · one-person score](https://bci.report/topics/data-quality/#eldbeta) | 20 October 2026 | Resolved 6 November 2026 | The raw-recording route ran end to end on one participant’s 7 blocks, and the one-person score was held by the owner’s decision. All 100 participants were then scored with training-free CCA and filter-bank CCA, and the cohort result is published on the data-quality page. |
| [YSU asynchronous SSVEP · consent statement](https://bci.report/topics/when-not-to-act/#non-control) | 27 September 2026 | Resolved 27 September 2026 | Scored and audited, then held until the data paper’s consent and ethics statement was read; released the same day. |
| [Alpha Waves · primary consent source](https://bci.report/topics/fewer-electrodes/#posterior-subset) | 22 September 2026 | Resolved 22 September 2026 | Released the same day, after the primary report’s consent statement was read. |
