Space-by-time non-negative matrix factorization for single-trial decoding of M/EEG activity
We develop a novel methodology for the single-trial analysis of multichannel time-varying neuroimaging signals. We introduce the space-by-time M/EEG decomposition, based on Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF), which describes single-trial M/EEG signals using a set of non-negative spatial and temporal components that are linearly combined with signed scalar activation coefficients. We illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach on an EEG dataset recorded during the performance of a visual categorization task. Our method extracts three temporal and two spatial functional components achieving a compact yet full representation of the underlying structure, which validates and summarizes succinctly results from previous studies. Furthermore, we introduce a decoding analysis that allows determining the distinct functional role of each component and relating them to experimental conditions and task parameters. In particular, we demonstrate that the presented stimulus and the task difficulty of each trial can be reliably decoded using specific combinations of components from the identified space-by-time representation. When comparing with a sliding-window linear discriminant algorithm, we show that our approach yields more robust decoding performance across participants. Overall, our findings suggest that the proposed space-by-time decomposition is a meaningful low-dimensional representation that carries the relevant information of single-trial M/EEG signals
A Tensor-Based Dictionary Learning Approach to Tomographic Image Reconstruction
We consider tomographic reconstruction using priors in the form of a
dictionary learned from training images. The reconstruction has two stages:
first we construct a tensor dictionary prior from our training data, and then
we pose the reconstruction problem in terms of recovering the expansion
coefficients in that dictionary. Our approach differs from past approaches in
that a) we use a third-order tensor representation for our images and b) we
recast the reconstruction problem using the tensor formulation. The dictionary
learning problem is presented as a non-negative tensor factorization problem
with sparsity constraints. The reconstruction problem is formulated in a convex
optimization framework by looking for a solution with a sparse representation
in the tensor dictionary. Numerical results show that our tensor formulation
leads to very sparse representations of both the training images and the
reconstructions due to the ability of representing repeated features compactly
in the dictionary.Comment: 29 page
A Nonconvex Splitting Method for Symmetric Nonnegative Matrix Factorization: Convergence Analysis and Optimality
Symmetric nonnegative matrix factorization (SymNMF) has important
applications in data analytics problems such as document clustering, community
detection and image segmentation. In this paper, we propose a novel nonconvex
variable splitting method for solving SymNMF. The proposed algorithm is
guaranteed to converge to the set of Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) points of the
nonconvex SymNMF problem. Furthermore, it achieves a global sublinear
convergence rate. We also show that the algorithm can be efficiently
implemented in parallel. Further, sufficient conditions are provided which
guarantee the global and local optimality of the obtained solutions. Extensive
numerical results performed on both synthetic and real data sets suggest that
the proposed algorithm converges quickly to a local minimum solution.Comment: IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing (to appear
Descent methods for Nonnegative Matrix Factorization
In this paper, we present several descent methods that can be applied to
nonnegative matrix factorization and we analyze a recently developped fast
block coordinate method called Rank-one Residue Iteration (RRI). We also give a
comparison of these different methods and show that the new block coordinate
method has better properties in terms of approximation error and complexity. By
interpreting this method as a rank-one approximation of the residue matrix, we
prove that it \emph{converges} and also extend it to the nonnegative tensor
factorization and introduce some variants of the method by imposing some
additional controllable constraints such as: sparsity, discreteness and
smoothness.Comment: 47 pages. New convergence proof using damped version of RRI. To
appear in Numerical Linear Algebra in Signals, Systems and Control. Accepted.
