State-of-the-art technologies in neural speech decoding utilize data collected from microwires or microarrays implanted directly into the cerebral cortex. Yet as a tool accessible only to individuals with implanted electrodes, speech decoding from devices of this nature is severely limited in its implementation, and cannot be considered a viable solution for widespread application. Speech decoding from non-invasive EEG signals can achieve relatively high accuracy (70-80%), but only from very small classification tasks, with more complex tasks typically yielding a limited (20-50%) classification accuracy. We propose a novel combination of technologies in which transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is first applied to augment the neural signals of interest, producing a greater signal-to-noise ratio in the EEG data. Next, delay differential analysis (DDA) - a cutting-edge computational method based on nonlinear dynamics - is implemented to capture the widest range of information available in the neural signal, by incorporating both linear and nonlinear dynamics.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
