- 可解释性强,适用于癫痫灶定位与临床辅助诊断
复杂的空间连接模式(如发作间期抑制与发作期传播)使得利用立体定向脑电图(SEEG)和传统机器学习方法进行难治性癫痫(DRE)发作检测面临挑战。主要问题包括:功能连接估计信噪比低,难以学习发作相关交互;专家标注的空间病理连接模式难获取,且缺乏其表征以提升检测性能。为此,本文提出一种新型节点-图双对比学习框架Seizure-NGCLNet,用于学习SEEG发作间期抑制与发作期传播模式,实现高精度的DRE发作检测。首先,设计基于中心性度量的自适应图增强策略生成发作相关脑网络;其次,融合全局图级对比与局部节点-图对比的双对比学习方法,编码空间结构与语义致痫特征;最后,通过top-k局部图注意力网络对预训练嵌入进行微调完成分类。在包含33名DRE患者的大型公开SEEG数据集上实验表明,Seizure-NGCLNet达到最优性能:平均准确率95.93%,灵敏度96.25%,特异性94.12%。可视化结果显示,学习到的嵌入能清晰区分发作期与发作间期状态,体现与临床机制一致的抑制与传播模式。结果表明,Seizure-NGCLNet具备学习可解释的空间病理模式的能力,显著提升发作检测与发作起始区定位效果。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Complex spatial connectivity patterns, such as interictal suppression and ictal propagation, complicate accurate drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) seizure detection using stereotactic electroencephalography (SEEG) and traditional machine learning methods. Two critical challenges remain:(1)a low signal-to-noise ratio in functional connectivity estimates, making it difficult to learn seizure-related interactions; and (2)expert labels for spatial pathological connectivity patterns are difficult to obtain, meanwhile lacking the patterns' representation to improve seizure detection. To address these issues, we propose a novel node-graph dual contrastive learning framework, Seizure-NGCLNet, to learn SEEG interictal suppression and ictal propagation patterns for detecting DRE seizures with high precision. First, an adaptive graph augmentation strategy guided by centrality metrics is developed to generate seizure-related brain networks. Second, a dual-contrastive learning approach is integrated, combining global graph-level contrast with local node-graph contrast, to encode both spatial structural and semantic epileptogenic features. Third, the pretrained embeddings are fine-tuned via a top-k localized graph attention network to perform the final classification. Extensive experiments on a large-scale public SEEG dataset from 33 DRE patients demonstrate that Seizure-NGCLNet achieves state-of-the-art performance, with an average accuracy of 95.93%, sensitivity of 96.25%, and specificity of 94.12%. Visualizations confirm that the learned embeddings clearly separate ictal from interictal states, reflecting suppression and propagation patterns that correspond to the clinical mechanisms. These results highlight Seizure-NGCLNet's ability to learn interpretable spatial pathological patterns, enhancing both seizure detection and seizure onset zone localization.
