INTRODUCING SPHOTAA state-of-the-art 240M parameter language model
INTRODUCING / OPEN-WEIGHT EEG FOUNDATION MODEL

Pratibha

From patterns
to insight.

Pratibha is an EEG foundation model. It learns patterns in brain recordings that researchers can use across tasks, or adapt with their own data.

How Pratibha
learns from EEG.

The encoder is open.
Use it with your own data.

01 / TWO VIEWS

The signal and its rhythms.

During pretraining, the model reconstructs the EEG waveform and estimates power in six frequency bands.

02 / A STRUCTURAL PRIOR

Keeping the reconstruction consistent.

ConRec discourages sudden changes in energy between neighbouring parts of the reconstructed recording.

03 / AN OPEN FOUNDATION

Use it with your own data.

Extract features with the released encoder, or fine-tune it for your task. It supports different channel counts and recording lengths.

02 / EVALUATIONS

How it performs
on EEG tasks.

Seven tasks, compared
with six other models.

5 / 7TASKS LED IN BALANCED ACCURACY

Select a task to compare the models, or open the full results table. In these experiments, the encoder was kept frozen; only a small classifier was trained.

Published LP-AVG protocol: frozen encoder, average pooling and a lightweight classifier. Mean test scores at the best validation epoch, with reported variation across seeds. EEGPT’s Motor-MV result includes pretraining-corpus overlap. Table 3 · MANAS-2 paper ↗

03 / APPLICATIONS

Research uses
and work in progress.

For EEG researchers.
Clinical tools are in development.

RESEARCH / BRAIN–COMPUTER INTERFACES

Studying brain activity.

For motor imagery, movement, sleep or workload research, you can start with features from Pratibha instead of training an EEG encoder from scratch.

Try the released encoder on your dataset, then test whether fine-tuning improves performance. Results will depend on the task and recording setup.

CLINICAL PROGRAMME / IN DEVELOPMENT

Support for epilepsy assessment.

An EEG recording is only part of an epilepsy assessment. Clinicians also need the person’s symptoms, medical history and details relevant to a suspected epilepsy diagnosis.

We’re developing tools that bring these details together with EEG analysis in a report clinicians can review. The goal is to help them reach a diagnosis sooner.

CLINICAL PROGRAMME / IN DEVELOPMENT

Screening for memory concerns.

When someone notices changes in memory or thinking, it can be difficult to know whether they need further assessment.

We’re exploring an affordable EEG-based first screen to help clinicians decide who should be assessed further. This work is still in development.

How the pieces
fit together.

The aim is to give clinicians information they can review alongside the rest of the assessment.

  1. 01 / EEG ANALYSIS

    Find patterns in the EEG recording.

  2. 02 / CLINICAL CONTEXT

    Add symptoms, observations and relevant medical history.

  3. 03 / CLINICIAN REVIEW

    Bring the findings into a report for the treating clinician.

to a task-specific model.

CONCEPTUAL WALKTHROUGH

Record EEG. Record electrical activity through electrodes on the scalp.

A simplified example of model adaptation, not a live analysis.
