An Automated System for Epilepsy Detection using EEG Brain Signals based on Deep Learning Approach
Epilepsy is a neurological disorder and for its detection, encephalography
(EEG) is a commonly used clinical approach. Manual inspection of EEG brain
signals is a time-consuming and laborious process, which puts heavy burden on
neurologists and affects their performance. Several automatic techniques have
been proposed using traditional approaches to assist neurologists in detecting
binary epilepsy scenarios e.g. seizure vs. non-seizure or normal vs. ictal.
These methods do not perform well when classifying ternary case e.g. ictal vs.
normal vs. inter-ictal; the maximum accuracy for this case by the
state-of-the-art-methods is 97+-1%. To overcome this problem, we propose a
system based on deep learning, which is an ensemble of pyramidal
one-dimensional convolutional neural network (P-1D-CNN) models. In a CNN model,
the bottleneck is the large number of learnable parameters. P-1D-CNN works on
the concept of refinement approach and it results in 60% fewer parameters
compared to traditional CNN models. Further to overcome the limitations of
small amount of data, we proposed augmentation schemes for learning P-1D-CNN
model. In almost all the cases concerning epilepsy detection, the proposed
system gives an accuracy of 99.1+-0.9% on the University of Bonn dataset.Comment: 18 page
Deep SimNets
We present a deep layered architecture that generalizes convolutional neural
networks (ConvNets). The architecture, called SimNets, is driven by two
operators: (i) a similarity function that generalizes inner-product, and (ii) a
log-mean-exp function called MEX that generalizes maximum and average. The two
operators applied in succession give rise to a standard neuron but in "feature
space". The feature spaces realized by SimNets depend on the choice of the
similarity operator. The simplest setting, which corresponds to a convolution,
realizes the feature space of the Exponential kernel, while other settings
realize feature spaces of more powerful kernels (Generalized Gaussian, which
includes as special cases RBF and Laplacian), or even dynamically learned
feature spaces (Generalized Multiple Kernel Learning). As a result, the SimNet
contains a higher abstraction level compared to a traditional ConvNet. We argue
that enhanced expressiveness is important when the networks are small due to
run-time constraints (such as those imposed by mobile applications). Empirical
evaluation validates the superior expressiveness of SimNets, showing a
significant gain in accuracy over ConvNets when computational resources at
run-time are limited. We also show that in large-scale settings, where
computational complexity is less of a concern, the additional capacity of
SimNets can be controlled with proper regularization, yielding accuracies
comparable to state of the art ConvNets
Kervolutional Neural Networks
Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have enabled the state-of-the-art
performance in many computer vision tasks. However, little effort has been
devoted to establishing convolution in non-linear space. Existing works mainly
leverage on the activation layers, which can only provide point-wise
non-linearity. To solve this problem, a new operation, kervolution (kernel
convolution), is introduced to approximate complex behaviors of human
perception systems leveraging on the kernel trick. It generalizes convolution,
enhances the model capacity, and captures higher order interactions of
features, via patch-wise kernel functions, but without introducing additional
parameters. Extensive experiments show that kervolutional neural networks (KNN)
achieve higher accuracy and faster convergence than baseline CNN.Comment: oral paper in CVPR 201
