Cross-Sensory Brain Passage Retrieval: Scaling Beyond Visual to Audio

arXiv CS.LG

ArXi:2601.14001v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Query formulation from internal information needs remains fundamentally challenging across all Information Retrieval paradigms due to cognitive complexity and physical impairments. Brain Passage Retrieval (BPR) addresses this by directly mapping EEG signals to passage representations without intermediate text translation. However, existing BPR research exclusively uses visual stimuli, leaving critical questions unanswered: Can auditory EEG enable effective retrieval for voice-based interfaces and visually impaired users? Can
