Electroencephalography (EEG) foundation models have shown promise for learning generalizable representations, yet they remain sensitive to channel heterogeneity, such as changes in channel composition or ordering. We propose channel-aware multimodal EEG-text alignment contrastive language-image pretraining (CAMEL-CLIP), a contrastive EEG-text multimodal foundation model designed to be robust to heterogeneous channel configurations and widely applicable to diverse downstream tasks. CAMEL-CLIP introduces three key components: (1) channel attribute-based positional encoding, which identifies channels through semantic information; (2) dynamic channel projection, which generates variable-length embeddings by independently projecting each channel without feature compression; and (3) dual-level contrastive learning, which jointly performs channel-level and sample-level contrastive learning to capture both channel-specific and global signal characteristics. Experimental results demonstrate that CAMEL-CLIP achieves state-of-the-art performance under linear-probing and outperforms existing foundation models that rely on full-finetuning.

Electroencephalography (ECoG) offers a promising alternative to conventional electrocorticography (EEG) for the early prediction of Parkinson's disease (PD), providing higher spatial resolution and a broader frequency range. However, reproducible comparisons has been limited by ethical constraints in human studies and the lack of open benchmark datasets. To address this gap, we introduce a new dataset, the first reproducible benchmark for PD prediction. It is constructed from long-term ECoG recordings of 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA)-induced rat models and annotated with neural responses measured before and after electrical stimulation. In addition, we propose a Swap-Adversarial Framework (SAF) that mitigates high inter-subject variability and the high-dimensional low-sample-size (HDLSS) problem in ECoG data, while achieving robust domain generalization across ECoG and EEG-based Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) datasets. The framework integrates (1) robust preprocessing, (2) Inter-Subject Balanced Channel Swap (ISBCS) for cross-subject augmentation, and (3) domain-adversarial training to suppress subject-specific bias. ISBCS randomly swaps channels between subjects to reduce inter-subject variability, and domain-adversarial training jointly encourages the model to learn task-relevant shared features. We validated the effectiveness of the proposed method through extensive experiments under cross-subject, cross-session, and cross-dataset settings. Our method consistently outperformed all baselines across all settings, showing the most significant improvements in highly variable environments. Furthermore, the proposed method achieved superior cross-dataset performance between public EEG benchmarks, demonstrating strong generalization capability not only within ECoG but to EEG data. The new dataset and source code will be made publicly available upon publication.
