Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) with sophisticated units that implement a gating mechanism have emerged as powerful technique for modeling sequential signals such as speech or electroencephalography (EEG). The latter is the focus on this paper. A significant big data resource, known as the TUH EEG Corpus (TUEEG), has recently become available for EEG research, creating a unique opportunity to evaluate these recurrent units on the task of seizure detection. In this study, we compare two types of recurrent units: long short-term memory units (LSTM) and gated recurrent units (GRU). These are evaluated using a state of the art hybrid architecture that integrates Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) with RNNs. We also investigate a variety of initialization methods and show that initialization is crucial since poorly initialized networks cannot be trained. Furthermore, we explore regularization of these convolutional gated recurrent networks to address the problem of overfitting. Our experiments revealed that convolutional LSTM networks can achieve significantly better performance than convolutional GRU networks. The convolutional LSTM architecture with proper initialization and regularization delivers 30% sensitivity at 6 false alarms per 24 hours.

Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological diseases, characterized by transient and unprovoked events called epileptic seizures. Electroencephalogram (EEG) is an auxiliary method used to perform both the diagnosis and the monitoring of epilepsy. Given the unexpected nature of an epileptic seizure, its prediction would improve patient care, optimizing the quality of life and the treatment of epilepsy. Predicting an epileptic seizure implies the identification of two distinct states of EEG in a patient with epilepsy: the preictal and the interictal. In this paper, we developed two deep lear…
There is abundant medical data on the internet, most of which are unlabeled. Traditional supervised learning algorithms are often limited by the amount of labeled data, especially in the medical domain, where labeling is costly in terms of human processing and specialized experts needed to label them. They are also prone to human error and biased as a select few expert annotators label them. These issues are mitigated by Self-supervision, where we generate pseudo-labels from unlabelled data by seeing the data itself. This paper presents various self-supervision strategies to enhance the perfor…
Epilepsy is one of the most common brain diseases that affect more than 1\% of the world's population. It is characterized by recurrent seizures, which come in different types and are treated differently. Electroencephalography (EEG) is commonly used in medical services to diagnose seizures and their types. The accurate identification of seizures helps to provide optimal treatment and accurate information to the patient. However, the manual diagnostic procedures of epileptic seizures are laborious and highly-specialized. Moreover, EEG manual evaluation is a process known to have a low inter-ra…

We propose a deep learning approach based on an autoencoder for identifying and localizing fiber faults in passive optical networks. The experimental results show that the proposed method detects faults with 97% accuracy, pinpoints them with an RMSE of 0.18 m and outperforms conventional techniques.
Automated seizure detection using clinical electroencephalograms is a challenging machine learning problem because the multichannel signal often has an extremely low signal to noise ratio. Events of interest such as seizures are easily confused with signal artifacts (e.g, eye movements) or benign variants (e.g., slowing). Commercially available systems suffer from unacceptably high false alarm rates. Deep learning algorithms that employ high dimensional models have not previously been effective due to the lack of big data resources. In this paper, we use the TUH EEG Seizure Corpus to evaluate …

In current clinical practice, electroencephalograms (EEG) are reviewed and analyzed by well-trained neurologists to provide supports for therapeutic decisions. The way of manual reviewing is labor-intensive and error prone. Automatic and accurate seizure/nonseizure classification methods are needed. One major problem is that the EEG signals for seizure state and nonseizure state exhibit considerable variations. In order to capture essential seizure features, this paper integrates an emerging deep learning model, the independently recurrent neural network (IndRNN), with a dense structure and an…
Epilepsy is a neurological brain disorder which life threatening and gives rise to recurrent seizures that are unprovoked. It occurs due to the abnormal chemical changes in our brain. Over the course of many years, studies have been conducted to support automatic diagnosis of epileptic seizures for the ease of clinicians. For that, several studies entail the use of machine learning methods for the early prediction of epileptic seizures. Mainly, feature extraction methods have been used to extract the right features from the EEG data generated by the EEG machine and then various machine learnin…
Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder affecting more than 65 million people worldwide and manifested by recurrent unprovoked seizures. The unpredictability of seizures not only degrades the quality of life of the patients, but it can also be life-threatening. Modern systems monitoring electroencephalography (EEG) signals are being currently developed with the view to detect epileptic seizures in order to alert caregivers and reduce the impact of seizures on patients' quality of life. Such seizure detection systems employ state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms that require a conside…

Epilepsy affects nearly 1% of the global population, of which two thirds can be treated by anti-epileptic drugs and a much lower percentage by surgery. Diagnostic procedures for epilepsy and monitoring are highly specialized and labour-intensive. The accuracy of the diagnosis is also complicated by overlapping medical symptoms, varying levels of experience and inter-observer variability among clinical professions. This paper proposes a novel hybrid bilinear deep learning network with an application in the clinical procedures of epilepsy classification diagnosis, where the use of surface electr…
Graph processes exhibit a temporal structure determined by the sequence index and and a spatial structure determined by the graph support. To learn from graph processes, an information processing architecture must then be able to exploit both underlying structures. We introduce Graph Recurrent Neural Networks (GRNNs) as a general learning framework that achieves this goal by leveraging the notion of a recurrent hidden state together with graph signal processing (GSP). In the GRNN, the number of learnable parameters is independent of the length of the sequence and of the size of the graph, guar…

With the advancement in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) techniques, researchers are striving towards employing these techniques for advancing clinical practice. One of the key objectives in healthcare is the early detection and prediction of disease to timely provide preventive interventions. This is especially the case for epilepsy, which is characterized by recurrent and unpredictable seizures. Patients can be relieved from the adverse consequences of epileptic seizures if it could somehow be predicted in advance. Despite decades of research, seizure prediction remains…

An accurate road surface friction prediction algorithm can enable intelligent transportation systems to share timely road surface condition to the public for increasing the safety of the road users. Previously, scholars developed multiple prediction models for forecasting road surface conditions using historical data. However, road surface condition data cannot be perfectly collected at every timestamp, e.g. the data collected by on-vehicle sensors may be influenced when vehicles cannot travel due to economic cost issue or weather issues. Such resulted missing values in the collected data can …

Time-series forecasting for nonlinear high-dimensional system using hybrid method combining autoencoder and multi-parallelized quantum long short-term memory and gated recurrent unit
This paper proposes a Fast Graph Convolutional Neural Network (FGRNN) architecture to predict sequences with an underlying graph structure. The proposed architecture addresses the limitations of the standard recurrent neural network (RNN), namely, vanishing and exploding gradients, causing numerical instabilities during training. State-of-the-art architectures that combine gated RNN architectures, such as Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) with graph convolutions are known to improve the numerical stability during the training phase, but at the expense of the model si…
A field that has directly benefited from the recent advances in deep learning is Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR). Despite the great achievements of the past decades, however, a natural and robust human-machine speech interaction still appears to be out of reach, especially in challenging environments characterized by significant noise and reverberation. To improve robustness, modern speech recognizers often employ acoustic models based on Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs), that are naturally able to exploit large time contexts and long-term speech modulations. It is thus of great interest to…
