  • Neural decoding of pathological and physiological states can enable patient-individualized closed-loop neuromodulation therapy. Recent advances in pre-trained large-scale foundation models offer the potential for generalized state estimation without patient-individual training. Here we present a foundation model trained on chronic longitudinal deep brain stimulation recordings spanning over 24 days. Adhering to long time-scale symptom fluctuations, we highlight the extended context window of 30 minutes. We present an optimized pre-training loss function for neural electrophysiological data that corrects for the frequency bias of common masked auto-encoder loss functions due to the 1-over-f power law. We show in a downstream task the decoding of Parkinson's disease symptoms with leave-one-subject-out cross-validation without patient-individual training.
