Abstract
Methods and systems are disclosed for training a user-specific machine learning (ML) model to detect inner speech. The system accesses the ML model trained to detect inner speech based on a general population dataset. The system collects, by an electromyograph (EMG) communication device, a set of EMG signals generated based on an individual user of the EMG communication device. The system updates parameters of the ML model based on the set of EMG signals associated with the individual user. The system detects inner speech of the individual user by applying the ML model with the updated parameters to a new set of EMG signals received from the EMG communication device.
