通过信息瓶颈与自监督学习优化脑电图连接结构,提升癫痫发作检测准确率。

Optimizing EEG Graph Structure for Seizure Detection: An Information Bottleneck and Self-Supervised Learning Approach

  • 基于信息瓶颈原理联合学习去噪动态图与时空表示
  • 在多个基准数据集上优于现有方法,提升检测性能
  • 适用于癫痫研究与临床诊断,可解释脑区传播机制

由于复杂的时空动态和显著的患者间差异,从脑电图(EEG)信号中检测癫痫发作极具挑战性。现有方法通过统计相关性、预定义相似性或隐式学习构建动态图,但很少考虑EEG固有的噪声特性,导致图中包含冗余或任务无关连接,削弱模型表现。本文提出一种新视角:通过信息瓶颈(IB)指导,联合学习去噪的动态图结构与信息丰富的时空表示。所提图构造器显式建模EEG噪声,生成紧凑可靠的连接模式。为进一步增强表示学习,引入基于动态图上下文的自监督图掩码自动编码器,重建被遮蔽的EEG信号,促进符合IB原则的结构感知且紧凑的表示。整合后提出IRENE框架,解决三大核心问题:(i) 识别最相关信息节点与边;(ii) 解释癫痫在脑网络中的传播路径;(iii) 提升对标签稀缺与患者差异的鲁棒性。在多个基准EEG数据集上的实验表明,IRENE优于当前最优基线,并提供具有临床意义的癫痫动态洞察。源代码已开源于https://github.com/LabRAI/IRENE。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Seizure detection from EEG signals is highly challenging due to complex spatiotemporal dynamics and extreme inter-patient variability. To model them, recent methods construct dynamic graphs via statistical correlations, predefined similarity measures, or implicit learning, yet rarely account for EEG's noisy nature. Consequently, these graphs usually contain redundant or task-irrelevant connections, undermining model performance even with state-of-the-art architectures. In this paper, we present a new perspective for EEG seizure detection: jointly learning denoised dynamic graph structures and informative spatial-temporal representations guided by the Information Bottleneck (IB). Unlike prior approaches, our graph constructor explicitly accounts for the noisy characteristics of EEG data, producing compact and reliable connectivity patterns that better support downstream seizure detection. To further enhance representation learning, we employ a self-supervised Graph Masked AutoEncoder that reconstructs masked EEG signals based on dynamic graph context, promoting structure-aware and compact representations aligned with the IB principle. Bringing things together, we introduce Information Bottleneck-guided EEG SeizuRE DetectioN via SElf-Supervised Learning (IRENE), which explicitly learns dynamic graph structures and interpretable spatial-temporal EEG representations. IRENE addresses three core challenges: (i) Identifying the most informative nodes and edges; (ii) Explaining seizure propagation in the brain network; and (iii) Enhancing robustness against label scarcity and inter-patient variability. Extensive experiments on benchmark EEG datasets demonstrate that our method outperforms state-of-the-art baselines in seizure detection and provides clinically meaningful insights into seizure dynamics.
