Summary

This study tests whether high-density brain recordings can decode Mandarin Chinese speech features, including tone, from imagined speech. About 50 adults with brain conditions like epilepsy or tumors will have temporary electrodes placed during surgery, and 10 people with severe speech loss will get permanent implants. The goal is to develop silent brain-to-speech technology for those who cannot speak.
