  • 基于目标感知的图神经网络,通过相关性加权传播特征。

准确评估体脂率(BFP)、骨密度(BMD)和四肢去脂体重(ALM)对代谢、骨骼和肌肉健康评估至关重要。直接检测依赖双能X射线吸收测定法(DXA),需专用设备且有电离辐射风险。本文提出一种目标感知、状态自适应的p-Dirichlet能量流图神经回归框架(pSADE-GNR),从非侵入性人体测量数据中估计这些指标。神经编码器将参与者表征映射为隐藏状态,并通过状态自适应前向欧拉离散化,在特定结果的参与者相似性图上进行传播。图距离按各原始或潜在坐标与目标结果的标准化训练集相关系数加权。基于彭尼恩特生物医学研究中心临床数据及五折交叉验证,使用原始标准化测量的加权模型在九个主要结果-队列组合中均取得最低均方根误差,且在八组比较中优于已报道的支持向量回归或最小二乘支持向量回归基准值。自编码器、变分自编码器及高斯混合变分自编码器表示未提升主结果预测性能或降低计算成本。探索性年龄预测分析中,以ALM、BMD、BFP为预测因子的加权GMVAE模型在三组中均取得最低平均误差。结果支持该方法在无创体成分评估中的有效性。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Accurate estimation of body-composition outcomes, including body fat percentage (BFP), bone mineral density (BMD), and appendicular lean mass (ALM), is important for evaluating metabolic, skeletal, and muscular health. Direct assessment using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), however, requires specialized equipment and involves ionizing radiation. We propose a target-aware, state-adaptive $p$-Dirichlet energy-flow graph neural regression ($p$SADE-GNR) framework for estimating these outcomes from non-invasive anthropometric measurements. A neural encoder maps participant representations to hidden states that are propagated over an outcome-specific participant-similarity graph by a state-adaptive forward-Euler discretization of the graph $p$-Dirichlet energy flow. Graph distances weight each original or latent coordinate by its normalized absolute training-fold correlation with the outcome. Using clinical data from the Pennington Biomedical Research Center and five-fold cross-validation, the correlation-weighted model using the original standardized measurements achieved the lowest root mean squared error in all nine primary outcome-cohort combinations and outperformed previously reported support vector regression or least-squares support vector regression reference values in eight of nine comparisons. Autoencoder, variational-autoencoder, and Gaussian-mixture variational-autoencoder representations generally did not improve primary-outcome prediction or reduce computational cost. In an exploratory age-prediction analysis including ALM, BMD, and BFP as predictors, the correlation-weighted GMVAE model achieved the lowest mean error in all three cohorts. These results support target-aware, state-adaptive $p$-Dirichlet graph neural regression for non-invasive body-composition estimation.
