提出统一框架PAT,同时提升脑电解码的准确率、鲁棒性与隐私保护。
PAT: Privacy-Preserving Adversarial Transfer for Accurate, Robust and Privacy-Preserving EEG Decoding
- 融合数据对齐、对抗训练与隐私保护迁移,构建统一训练流程。
- 在五个公开数据集上,平均准确率与鲁棒性均优于十余种主流方法。
- 首次实现脑电解码中准确率、鲁棒性与隐私保护的协同优化,适合医疗与可穿戴场景。
基于脑电图(EEG)的脑机接口(BCI)实现了大脑与外部设备的直接通信。然而,这类系统在实际应用中面临三大挑战:解码准确率有限、鲁棒性差以及隐私风险。尽管已有研究解决其中一至两个问题,但能同时提升准确率、鲁棒性与隐私保护的方法仍较少。本文提出隐私保护对抗迁移(PAT),一个统一的训练框架,结合数据对齐、对抗训练与隐私保护迁移。PAT可在三种隐私保护场景下部署:集中式无源迁移、联邦式无源迁移、源数据隐私保护下的迁移,同时提升准确率与鲁棒性。在五个公开EEG数据集上,针对三种隐私保护场景的实验表明,PAT在准确率与鲁棒性方面均超越十种经典及前沿方法。相比不具隐私机制的先进迁移学习方法,其平均准确率与鲁棒性提升9.76%。据我们所知,这是首个同时解决EEG-BBCI三大核心挑战的方法。该工作有望推动更准确、鲁棒且隐私安全的脑电解码研究。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
An electroencephalogram (EEG)-based brain-computer interface (BCI) enables direct communication between the brain and external devices. However, such systems face at least three major challenges in real-world applications: limited decoding accuracy, poor robustness, and privacy risks. Although prior studies have addressed one or two of these issues, methods that simultaneously improve accuracy, robustness, and privacy remain largely unexplored. In this paper, we propose Privacy-preserving Adversarial Transfer (PAT), a unified training framework that combines data alignment, adversarial training, and privacy-preserving transfer. PAT provides a single pipeline that can be instantiated under three privacy-preserving scenarios, i.e., centralized source-free transfer, federated source-free transfer, and transfer with privacy-preserved source data, while jointly improving accuracy and robustness. Experiments on five public EEG datasets under three privacy-preserving scenarios (centralized source-free transfer, federated source-free transfer, and transfer with privacy-preserved source data) show that PAT outperforms over ten classic and state-of-the-art methods in both accuracy and robustness. PAT also outperformed leading transfer learning approaches that do not incorporate any privacy mechanisms by 9.76% in terms of average accuracy and robustness. To our knowledge, this is the first approach that simultaneously addresses all three major challenges in EEG-based BCIs. We believe this work can help motivate further research on more accurate, robust, and privacy-preserving EEG decoding.
