contents This work proposes a novel immersive communication framework that leverages brain-computer interface (BCI) to acquire brain signals for inferring user-centric states (e.g., intention and perception-related discomfort), thereby enabling more personalized and robust immersive adaptation under strong individual variability. Specifically, we develop a personalized federated learning (PFL) model to analyze and process the collected brain signals, which not only accommodates neurodiverse brain-signal data but also prevents the leakage of sensitive brain-signal information. To address the energy bottleneck of continual on-device learning and inference on energy-limited immersive terminals (e.g., head-mounted display), we further embed spiking neural networks (SNNs) into the PFL. By exploiting sparse, event-driven spike computation, the SNN-enabled PFL reduces the computation and energy cost of training and inference while maintaining competitive personalization performance. Experiments on real brain-signal dataset demonstrate that our method achieves the best overall identification accuracy while reducing inference energy by 6.46$\times$ compared with conventional artificial neural network-based personalized baselines.
