SaE-GBLS: an effective self-adaptive evolutionary optimized graph-broad model for EEG-based automatic epileptic seizure detection
Abstract
IntroductionEpilepsy is a common neurological condition that affects a large number of individuals worldwide. One of the primary challenges in epilepsy is the accurate and timely detection of seizure. Recently, the graph regularized broad learning system (GBLS) has achieved superior performance improvement with its flat structure and less time-consuming training process compared to deep neural networks. Nevertheless, the number of feature and enhancement nodes in GBLS is predetermined. These node settings are also randomly selected and remain unchanged throughout the training process. The characteristic of randomness is thus more easier to make non-optimal nodes generate, which cannot contribute significantly to solving the optimization problem.MethodsTo obtain more optimal nodes for optimization and achieve superior automatic detection performance, we propose a novel broad neural network named self-adaptive evolutionary graph regularized broad learning system (SaE-GBLS). Self-adaptive evolutionary algorithm, which can construct mutation strategies in the strategy pool based on the experience of producing solutions for selecting network parameters, is incorporated into SaE-GBLS model for optimizing the node parameters. The epilepsy seizure is automatic detected by our proposed SaE-GBLS model based on three publicly available EEG datasets and one private clinical EEG dataset.Results and discussionThe experimental results indicate that our suggested strategy has the potential to perform as well as current machine learning approaches.
