Exploiting Electrophysiological Measures of Semantic Processing for Auditory Attention Decoding

The paper investigates whether combining semantic dissimilarity features with auditory envelope features improves decoding of auditory attention in multi-speaker contexts, finding a marginal improvement that may not justify the added complexity.

Semantic Probing: Feasibility of using sequential probes to decode what is on a user’s mind

This paper investigates using sequential probe words to decode semantic concepts from brain responses, finding no decrease in N400 signal strength or classification accuracy with later probes.

Monitoring of language selection errors in switching: Not all about conflict

The paper investigates language selection errors in bilinguals using ERPs, finding that errors are more frequent when switching from L2 to L1 and that ERN effects are larger when switching to L2, challenging the conflict-based monitoring model.
