A Fuzzy-based Approach to Predict Human Interaction by Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy

  • 引入模糊注意力层,让Transformer模型能识别可解释的神经模式。
  • 在手牵手社交实验中,模型性能提升且可解释性增强。
  • 适合关注社会神经科学与心理人工智能的研究者。

本文提出一种基于模糊逻辑的注意力机制(Fuzzy Attention Layer),作为Transformer编码器中的神经网络层,用于提升神经模型在心理学研究中的可解释性与有效性。该方法利用功能性近红外光谱(fNIRS)采集的神经信号,分析复杂心理现象,如人际互动。通过模糊逻辑,该注意力层能够学习并识别可解释的神经活动模式,克服了传统Transformer模型在预测时难以确定哪些脑区活动起关键作用的透明度问题。在参与者进行手牵手社交互动的fNIRS数据实验中,结果表明该模型不仅提升了预测性能,还揭示出与人际触碰和情感交流相关的神经关联。本方法在解析人类社会行为的细微复杂性方面展现出良好潜力,对社会神经科学与心理人工智能领域具有重要意义。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

The paper introduces a Fuzzy-based Attention (Fuzzy Attention Layer) mechanism, a novel computational approach to enhance the interpretability and efficacy of neural models in psychological research. The proposed Fuzzy Attention Layer mechanism is integrated as a neural network layer within the Transformer Encoder model to facilitate the analysis of complex psychological phenomena through neural signals, such as those captured by functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS). By leveraging fuzzy logic, the Fuzzy Attention Layer is capable of learning and identifying interpretable patterns of neural activity. This capability addresses a significant challenge when using Transformer: the lack of transparency in determining which specific brain activities most contribute to particular predictions. Our experimental results demonstrated on fNIRS data from subjects engaged in social interactions involving handholding reveal that the Fuzzy Attention Layer not only learns interpretable patterns of neural activity but also enhances model performance. Additionally, the learned patterns provide deeper insights into the neural correlates of interpersonal touch and emotional exchange. The application of our model shows promising potential in deciphering the subtle complexities of human social behaviors, thereby contributing significantly to the fields of social neuroscience and psychological AI.
