Attention Is All Your Brain Needs: How Transformer Models Advance Neurotechnology—A Mini Review
Background: Since the seminal “Attention Is All You Need” paper (2017), transformer architectures have progressively reshaped sequence modelling far beyond natural‑language processing, including the analysis of multichannel electroencephalography (EEG). Objective: This mini‑review synthesizes research from 2017 to 2025 on transformer‑based EEG models, covering emotion recognition, motor‑imagery (MI) brain–computer...
