Beta power improved key-press decoding but showed no significant pooled gain across three memory tasks

We tested whether adding 13–30 Hz beta power to 70–150 Hz high-gamma (HG) power improves within-subject SEEG decoding across four tasks, using archived band-power features, shrinkage linear discriminant analysis, five-fold cross-validation, and five seeds. For key press versus rest (ds004473; 8 subjects), the AUC gain was +0.031 (95% CI +0.013 to +0.051); all 8 subjects improved (exact two-sided sign-flip p = 0.0078). This reproduces the earlier key-press result under a different cross-validation design. For three pooled memory tasks (39 subjects), mean dAUC was +0.014 (95% CI −0.004 to +0.033; one-sided p = 0.070), which was not significant at alpha 0.05. Effects differed by task: load 8 versus 4, +0.046 (12 subjects); word recall, +0.009 (19); and working-memory error, −0.019 (8). The pre-registered rule for concluding no useful gain did not apply because the confidence interval upper bound was 0.033, not below 0.02. The memory-task result is inconclusive: it excludes neither a zero gain nor a gain of about 0.03 AUC. Samples were small for some tasks, channel counts were low for the error task, and feature windows and band definitions differed across archived datasets.
