Behavioral Latency as Weak Event-Time Supervision for EEG Reaction-Time Decoding

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Aug 29, 2026 · UTC

Single-trial EEG analyses are often organized around events and latencies, yet EEG-based reaction-time (RT) prediction is posed as scalar regression on a fixed stimulus-locked window. RT is treated as a window-level label rather than timing evidence about response-relevant dynamics. Here we reformulate trial-wise RT decoding as event-time posterior modeling. Instead of predicting RT directly, the model estimates a posterior over response-relevant event times, $p(t_{\mathrm{event}}\mid X)$, and uses its mean as the RT estimate. This treats behavioral latency as a weak observation of latent resp
