A LightGBM-Based EEG Analysis Method for Driver Mental States Classification
Fatigue driving can easily lead to road traffic accidents and bring great harm to individuals and families. Recently, electroencephalography-
(EEG-) based physiological and brain activities for fatigue detection have been increasingly investigated.
However, how to find an effective method or model to timely and efficiently detect the mental states of drivers still remains a
challenge. In this paper, we combine common spatial pattern (CSP) and propose a light-weighted classifier, LightFD, which is
based on gradient boosting framework for EEG mental states identification. ,e comparable results with traditional classifiers,
such as support vector machine (SVM), convolutional neural network (CNN), gated recurrent unit (GRU), and large margin
nearest neighbor (LMNN), show that the proposed model could achieve better classification performance, as well as the decision
efficiency. Furthermore, we also test and validate that LightFD has better transfer learning performance in EEG classification of
driver mental states. In summary, our proposed LightFD classifier has better performance in real-time EEG mental state
prediction, and it is expected to have broad application prospects in practical brain-computer interaction (BCI)
Generate To Adapt: Aligning Domains using Generative Adversarial Networks
Domain Adaptation is an actively researched problem in Computer Vision. In
this work, we propose an approach that leverages unsupervised data to bring the
source and target distributions closer in a learned joint feature space. We
accomplish this by inducing a symbiotic relationship between the learned
embedding and a generative adversarial network. This is in contrast to methods
which use the adversarial framework for realistic data generation and
retraining deep models with such data. We demonstrate the strength and
generality of our approach by performing experiments on three different tasks
with varying levels of difficulty: (1) Digit classification (MNIST, SVHN and
USPS datasets) (2) Object recognition using OFFICE dataset and (3) Domain
adaptation from synthetic to real data. Our method achieves state-of-the art
performance in most experimental settings and by far the only GAN-based method
that has been shown to work well across different datasets such as OFFICE and
DIGITS.Comment: Accepted as spotlight talk at CVPR 2018. Code available here:

CHORUS Deliverable 2.2: Second report - identification of multi-disciplinary key issues for gap analysis toward EU multimedia search engines roadmap
After addressing the state-of-the-art during the first year of Chorus and establishing the existing landscape in
multimedia search engines, we have identified and analyzed gaps within European research effort during our second year.
In this period we focused on three directions, notably technological issues, user-centred issues and use-cases and socio-
economic and legal aspects. These were assessed by two central studies: firstly, a concerted vision of functional breakdown
of generic multimedia search engine, and secondly, a representative use-cases descriptions with the related discussion on
requirement for technological challenges. Both studies have been carried out in cooperation and consultation with the
community at large through EC concertation meetings (multimedia search engines cluster), several meetings with our
Think-Tank, presentations in international conferences, and surveys addressed to EU projects coordinators as well as
National initiatives coordinators. Based on the obtained feedback we identified two types of gaps, namely core
technological gaps that involve research challenges, and “enablers”, which are not necessarily technical research
challenges, but have impact on innovation progress. New socio-economic trends are presented as well as emerging legal
challenges
VIGAN: Missing View Imputation with Generative Adversarial Networks
In an era when big data are becoming the norm, there is less concern with the
quantity but more with the quality and completeness of the data. In many
disciplines, data are collected from heterogeneous sources, resulting in
multi-view or multi-modal datasets. The missing data problem has been
challenging to address in multi-view data analysis. Especially, when certain
samples miss an entire view of data, it creates the missing view problem.
Classic multiple imputations or matrix completion methods are hardly effective
here when no information can be based on in the specific view to impute data
for such samples. The commonly-used simple method of removing samples with a
missing view can dramatically reduce sample size, thus diminishing the
statistical power of a subsequent analysis. In this paper, we propose a novel
approach for view imputation via generative adversarial networks (GANs), which
we name by VIGAN. This approach first treats each view as a separate domain and
identifies domain-to-domain mappings via a GAN using randomly-sampled data from
each view, and then employs a multi-modal denoising autoencoder (DAE) to
reconstruct the missing view from the GAN outputs based on paired data across
the views. Then, by optimizing the GAN and DAE jointly, our model enables the
knowledge integration for domain mappings and view correspondences to
effectively recover the missing view. Empirical results on benchmark datasets
validate the VIGAN approach by comparing against the state of the art. The
evaluation of VIGAN in a genetic study of substance use disorders further
proves the effectiveness and usability of this approach in life science.Comment: 10 pages, 8 figures, conferenc
