Abstract
Electroencephalogram (EEG) recordings are often contaminated with muscle artifacts. Muscular activities strongly obscure EEG signals and complicate subsequent EEG-based data analysis. Conventional methods for removing muscle artifact from EEG are usually based on blind source separation techniques and involve jointly analyzing multichannel EEG recordings. Instead of using the multichannel approaches, this paper proposes to explore single-channel techniques for muscle artifact removal from multichannel EEG. It may seem paradoxical that we denoise each channel individually while ignoring interchannel relationships. We conduct a performance comparison study, through numerical simulations and applications to real EEG recordings contaminated with muscle artifacts. The results demonstrate the advantage of single-channel techniques over multichannel ones, especially for low signal-to-noise ratios. This paper may change the traditional understanding of denoising the EEG signals.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
