Predicting Different Acoustic Features from EEG and towards direct synthesis of Audio Waveform from EEG

In [1,2] authors provided preliminary results for synthesizing speech from electroencephalography (EEG) features where they first predict acoustic features from EEG features and then the speech is reconstructed from the predicted acoustic features using griffin lim reconstruction algorithm. In this paper we first introduce a deep learning model that takes raw EEG waveform signals as input and directly produces audio waveform as output. We then demonstrate predicting 16 different acoustic features from EEG features. We demonstrate our results for both spoken and listen condition in this paper. The results presented in this paper shows how different acoustic features are related to non-invasive neural EEG signals recorded during speech perception and production.
