BridgeRouter: Gain-Aware Instance Routing over Cross-Modal Bridge Portfolios
摘要
arXiv:2610.38152v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Lightweight representation bridges make pretrained, task-adapted EEG foundation models executable on other biosignal modalities without retraining their backbones. However, selecting a single bridge pathway globally assigns every instance to the same transfer route and ignores complementary errors across routes. We therefore formulate multi-bridge transfer as an instance-level algorithm-selection problem and introduce BridgeRouter, a gain-aware router over a portfolio of frozen cross-modal pathways. A validation-selected Single Best Solver (SBS) serves as a protected default route. During training, task labels are used to compute the reduction in negative log-likelihood provided by each alternative route relative to the SBS, and a lightweight MLP predicts these route-specific gains from a target-modality representation extracted by a frozen encoder. At inference, BridgeRouter observes only the target modality, requires neither EEG, task labels, nor predictions from all candidate routes, and executes exactly one bridge pathway: the route with the largest predicted gain when that gain exceeds a validation-calibrated threshold, and the SBS otherwise. We evaluate seven EEG foundation-model bridge pathways for EMG-based freezing-of-gait detection on FOG and ECG-based sleep classification on ISRUC. Across five seeds, BridgeRouter achieves $81.38\pm1.11\%$ balanced accuracy on FOG, improving over the BIOT SBS by $11.49$ percentage poi
