• Abstract summary: This paper focuses on the impact of data normalisation, or standardisation strategies applied together with Domain Adaption (DA) methods. We experimentally evaluated the impact of different normalization strategies applied with and without several well-known DA methods. It results that the choice of the normalisation strategy plays a key role on the performances in DA scenarios.

• Abstract: In the Machine Learning (ML) literature, a well-known problem is the Dataset Shift problem where, differently from the ML standard hypothesis, the data in the training and test sets can follow different probability distributions, leading ML systems toward poor generalisation performances. This problem is intensely felt in the Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) context, where bio-signals as Electroencephalographic (EEG) are often used. In fact, EEG signals are highly non-stationary both over time and between different subjects. To overcome this problem, several proposed solutions are based on recent transfer learning approaches such as Domain Adaption (DA). In several cases, however, the actual causes of the improvements remain ambiguous. This paper focuses on the impact of data normalisation, or standardisation strategies applied together with DA methods. In particular, using \textit{SEED}, \textit{DEAP}, and \textit{BCI Competition IV 2a} EEG datasets, we experimentally evaluated the impact of different normalization strategies applied with and without several well-known DA methods, comparing the obtained performances. It results that the choice of the normalisation strategy plays a key role on the classifier performances in DA scenarios, and interestingly, in several cases, the use of only an appropriate normalisation schema outperforms the DA technique.

  Data Attribution methods quantify the influence of individual training data points on model outputs. Existing DA methods are often computationally intensive, limiting their applicability to large-scale machine learning models. We introduce the Generalized Group Data Attribution (GGDA) framework, which computationally simplifies DA by attributing to groups of training points instead of individual ones.

  Machine learning applications on signals such as computer vision or biomedical data often face challenges due to the variability that exists across hardware devices or session recordings. In this work, we propose Spatio-Temporal Monge Alignment (STMA) to mitigate these variabilities. We show that STMA leads to significant and consistent performance gains between datasets acquired with very different settings.

GOPSA has the potential to combine the advantages of mixed-effects modeling with machine learning for biomedical applications of EEG.

  Anomaly detection (AD) is a crucial machine learning task that aims to learn patterns from a set of normal training samples to identify abnormal samples in test data. Most existing AD studies assume that the training and test data are drawn from the same data distribution, but the test data can have large distribution shifts. We introduce a novel robust AD approach to diverse distribution shifts by minimizing the distribution gap between in-distribution and OOD normal samples in both the training and inference stages.
