The 2026 PNPL Competition: Word Classification and Efficient Cross-Subject Generalisation in LibriBrain100

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 3, 2026 · UTC

The ambition of the 2025 PNPL competition (Landau et al., 2025) was to launch a multi-year curriculum for non-invasive speech decoding. Designed to progress from foundational tasks toward the linguistic complexity required for a practical brain-computer interface (BCI), it set the stage with speech detection and phoneme classification tasks. Winning submissions reached F1-macro scores of 95.6% and 73.6% on the respective tasks (Elvers et al., 2026), highly significant advances. This success was built on the LibriBrain dataset (Özdogan et al., 2025), the largest within-subject MEG dataset recor
