盲源分离(BSS)是恢复感官混合信号中潜在成因的自然框架,但如何设计在线且符合生物学原理的算法,对结构化(即受限于已知领域)且可能相关的源信号仍具挑战。近期工作通过最大化熵推导出神经网络,但其在线实现涉及复杂非局部递归动态。受此启发,我们提出预测熵最大化方法,在仅使用局部权重更新的前提下,实现了具有竞争力的分离性能。该方法采用熵度量的近似形式,得到的损失函数具备明确可解释成分。最小化该目标函数导出一种预测神经架构:前馈突触遵循误差驱动规则(可通过树突机制实现),横向抑制连接通过局部赫布可塑性学习,源域约束则由简单输出非线性强制实现。我们推导了代理误差的显式谱界,刻画了近似精度成立的条件。实验表明,该方法在源信号相关性增强和观测噪声增加时仍保持鲁棒,优于依赖更强独立性或去相关假设的生物可解释算法,且与基于行列式和相关信息的精确基线方法表现相当。结果表明,局部可塑性与自适应横向抑制可从结构化源域上正则化的二阶熵最大化中自然涌现。代码已开源:https://github.com/BariscanBozkurt/Predictive-Entropy-Maximization。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Blind source separation (BSS) is a natural framework for studying how latent causes may be recovered from sensory mixtures, but deriving online and biologically plausible algorithms for structured (i.e., constrained to known domains) and potentially correlated sources remains challenging. Recent work has derived neural networks for BSS from maximization of an entropy measure, yet its online implementations involve complex and nonlocal recurrent dynamics. Motivated by this perspective, we propose Predictive Entropy Maximization, which achieves competitive performance in BSS, using only local weight updates. The method employs a close approximation of an entropy measure, yielding an objective function with easily interpretable components. Minimizing this objective leads to a predictive neural architecture in which feedforward synapses follow an error-driven rule (that can be realized through dendritic mechanisms), lateral inhibitory connections are learned with local Hebbian plasticity, and source-domain constraints are enforced through simple output nonlinearities. We derive explicit spectral bounds on the surrogate error, characterizing when the approximation is accurate. Empirically, Predictive Entropy Maximization remains robust under increasing source correlation and observation noise, outperforms biologically plausible algorithms that rely on stronger independence or decorrelation assumptions, and remains competitive with exact determinant- and correlative-information-based baselines. These results show how local plasticity and adaptive lateral inhibition can emerge from maximizing a regularized second-order entropy over structured source domains. Our implementation code is available at https://github.com/BariscanBozkurt/Predictive-Entropy-Maximization.
