用多模态一致性提升脑机接口情绪识别的标注效率与抗噪能力
Cross-Modal Consistency-Guided Active Learning for Affective BCI Systems
- 结合模型不确定性和跨模态对齐判断噪声来源
- 在ASCERTAIN数据集上减少40%标注需求且保持高精度
- 适合低标注成本、易受干扰的脑电情绪识别场景
深度学习模型在大量高质量标注数据下表现最佳,但基于脑电的情绪识别中难以满足此条件。脑电信号易受伪迹和个体差异影响,情绪标签常来自主观不一致的报告,导致情绪解码鲁棒性差。本文提出一种不确定性感知的主动学习框架,通过联合利用模型不确定性与跨模态一致性来增强对标签噪声的鲁棒性。该方法不仅依赖脑电的不确定性估计,还评估跨模态对齐情况,以判断不确定性是源于认知模糊还是传感器噪声。一个表征对齐模块将脑电与面部特征嵌入共享潜在空间,强制模态间语义一致性;残差偏差被视作噪声引起的不一致,仅对这些样本进行主动查询以获取人工反馈。该反馈驱动过程引导网络聚焦于可靠且信息量大的样本,降低噪声标签的影响。在ASCERTAIN数据集上的实验验证了该方法在效率和鲁棒性方面的优势,表明其具备数据高效且抗噪能力强的特点,适用于脑机接口中的情绪解码任务。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Deep learning models perform best with abundant, high-quality labels, yet such conditions are rarely achievable in EEG-based emotion recognition. Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals are easily corrupted by artifacts and individual variability, while emotional labels often stem from subjective and inconsistent reports-making robust affective decoding particularly difficult. We propose an uncertainty-aware active learning framework that enhances robustness to label noise by jointly leveraging model uncertainty and cross-modal consistency. Instead of relying solely on EEG-based uncertainty estimates, the method evaluates cross-modal alignment to determine whether uncertainty originates from cognitive ambiguity or sensor noise. A representation alignment module embeds EEG and face features into a shared latent space, enforcing semantic coherence between modalities. Residual discrepancies are treated as noise-induced inconsistencies, and these samples are selectively queried for oracle feedback during active learning. This feedback-driven process guides the network toward reliable, informative samples and reduces the impact of noisy labels. Experiments on the ASCERTAIN dataset examine the efficiency and robustness of ours, highlighting its potential as a data-efficient and noise-tolerant approach for EEG-based affective decoding in brain-computer interface systems.
