• Title: REPAC: Reliable estimation of phase-amplitude coupling in brain networks
• Authors: Giulia Cisotto
• Abstract summary: We present REPAC, a reliable and robust algorithm for modeling and detecting PAC events in EEG signals. We explain the synthesis of PAC-like EEG signals, with special attention to the most critical parameters that characterize PAC. We use computer simulations to generate a set of random PAC-like EEG signals and test the performance of REPAC with regard to a baseline method.

• Abstract: Recent evidence has revealed cross-frequency coupling and, particularly, phase-amplitude coupling (PAC) as an important strategy for the brain to accomplish a variety of high-level cognitive and sensory functions. However, decoding PAC is still challenging. This contribution presents REPAC, a reliable and robust algorithm for modeling and detecting PAC events in EEG signals. First, we explain the synthesis of PAC-like EEG signals, with special attention to the most critical parameters that characterize PAC, i.e., SNR, modulation index, duration of coupling. Second, REPAC is introduced in detail. We use computer simulations to generate a set of random PAC-like EEG signals and test the performance of REPAC with regard to a baseline method. REPAC is shown to outperform the baseline method even with realistic values of SNR, e.g., -10 dB. They both reach accuracy levels around 99%, but REPAC leads to a significant improvement of sensitivity, from 20.11% to 65.21%, with comparable specificity (around 99%). REPAC is also applied to a real EEG signal showing preliminary encouraging results.

  PAC-Bayes learning theory has focused extensively on establishing tight upper bounds for test errors. A recently proposed training procedure called PAC-Bayes training, updates the model toward minimizing these bounds. This approach is theoretically sound, in practice, it has not achieved a test error as low as those obtained by empirical risk minimization (ERM) We introduce a new PAC-Bayes training algorithm with improved performance and reduced reliance on prior tuning.

  We propose a time-frequency framework for the representation learning of the electroencephalogram (EEG) following the definition of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine. The input EEG spectrogram is partitioned into a sequence of patches in the time and frequency axes, and then input to a delicate deep learning network for further representation learning. The proposed pipeline is validated against a large database, i.e., the Sleep Heart Health Study (SHHS), and the results demonstrate that the competitive performance for the wake, N2, and N3 stages outperforms the state-of-art works.

  We propose a shape-aware relation network for accurate and real-time landmark detection in endoscopic submucosal dissection surgery. We first devise an algorithm to automatically generate relation keypoint heatmaps, which intuitively represent the prior knowledge of spatial relations among landmarks. We then develop two complementary regularization schemes to progressively incorporate the prior knowledge into the training process.
