    Transfer Learning for P300 Brain-Computer Interfaces by Joint Alignment of Feature Vectors
    (IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2023-10) Altindis, Fatih; Banerjee, Antara; Phlypo, Ronald; Yilmaz, Bulent; Congedo, Marco
    This article presents a new transfer learning method named group learning, that jointly aligns multiple domains (many-to-many) and an extension named fast alignment that aligns any further domain to previously aligned group of domains (many-to-one). The proposed group alignment algorithm (GALIA) is evaluated on brain-computer interface (BCI) data and optimal hyper-parameter values of the algorithm are studied for classification performance and computational cost. Six publicly available P300 databases comprising 333 sessions from 177 subjects are used. As compared to the conventional subject-specific train/test pipeline, both group learning and fast alignment significantly improve the classification accuracy except for the database with clinical subjects (average improvement: 2.12 +/- 1.88%). GALIA utilizes cyclic approximate joint diagonalization (AJD) to find a set of linear transformations, one for each domain, jointly aligning the feature vectors of all domains. Group learning achieves a many-to-many transfer learning without compromising the classification performance on non-clinical BCI data. Fast alignment further extends the group learning for any unseen domains, allowing a many-to-one transfer learning with the same properties. The former method creates a single machine learning model using data from previous subjects and/or sessions, whereas the latter exploits the trained model for an unseen domain requiring no further training of the classifier.

    Object Weight Perception in Motor Imagery Using Fourier-Based Synchrosqueezing Transform and Regularized Common Spatial Patterns
    (IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2024) Karakullukcu, Nedime; Altindis, Fatih; Yilmaz, Bulent
    This study addresses the challenge faced by individuals with upper-limb prostheses in regulating grip force and adapting movements to different object weights. Despite limited exploration, this research pioneers the use of EEG to estimate object weight perception in the context of upper-limb prostheses. Investigating neural correlates in this population provides valuable insights and aids the development of neurofeedback-based strategies for weight perception. Our objective is to identify EEG features predicting the weight perception of held objects. Employing Fourier-based synchrosqueezing transform (FSST) and regularized Common Spatial Patterns (CSP) features, we classify motor imagery waves representing three weight categories (light, medium, heavy). Subjects perform actual motor tasks before imagery sessions, and our approach integrates EEG features of both movements to train subject-specific machine learning models. Results reveal that FSST- singular value decomposition (SVD) features for medium and heavy objects are most distinctive. Achieving up to 90% accuracy, spatial features demonstrate effective classification of motor imagery for different weights. Unlike weight prediction studies, our focus is on visual perception and imagination of object weights, enhancing prosthetic hand system preconditioning. Binary classification surpasses 70% accuracy in predicting object weights, uniquely utilizing actual movement data for CSP algorithm regularization coefficient estimation.

    Metabolic Imaging Based Sub-Classification of Lung Cancer
    (IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2020) Bicakci, Mustafa; Ayyildiz, Oguzhan; Aydin, Zafer; Basturk, Alper; Karacavus, Seyhan; Yilmaz, Bulent
    Lung cancer is one of the deadliest cancer types whose 84% is non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In this study, deep learning-based classification methods were investigated comprehensively to differentiate two subtypes of NSCLC, namely adenocarcinoma (ADC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SqCC). The study used 1457 F-18-FDG PET images/slices with tumor from 94 patients (88 men), 38 of which were ADC and the rest were SqCC. Three experiments were carried out to examine the contribution of peritumoral areas in PET images on subtype classification of tumors. We assessed multilayer perceptron (MLP) and three convolutional neural network (CNN) models such as SqueezeNet, VGG16 and VGG19 using three kinds of images in these experiments: 1) Whole slices without cropping or segmentation, 2) cropped image portions (square subimages) that include the tumor and 3) segmented image portions corresponding to tumors using random walk method. Several optimizers and regularization methods were used to optimize each model for the diagnostic classification. The classification models were trained and evaluated by performing stratified 10-fold cross validation, and F-score and area-under-curve (AUC) metrics were used to quantify the performance. According to our results, it is possible to say that inclusion of peritumoral regions/tissues both contributes to the success of models and makes segmentation effort unnecessary. To the best of our knowledge, deep learning-based models have not been applied to the subtype classification of NSCLC in PET imaging, therefore, this study is a significant cornerstone providing thorough comparisons and evaluations of several deep learning models on metabolic imaging for lung cancer. Even simpler deep learning models are found promising in this domain, indicating that any improvement in deep learning models in machine learning community can be reflected well in this domain as well.

    Distinguishing Resting State From Motor Imagery Swallowing Using EEG and Deep Learning Models
    (IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2024) Aslan, Sevgi Gokce; Yilmaz, Bulent
    The primary aim of this study was to assess the classification performance of deep learning models in distinguishing between resting state and motor imagery swallowing, utilizing various preprocessing and data visualization techniques applied to electroencephalography (EEG) data. In this study, we performed experiments using four distinct paradigms such as natural swallowing, induced saliva swallowing, induced water swallowing, and induced tongue protrusion on 30 right-handed individuals (aged 18 to 56). We utilized a 16-channel wearable EEG headset. We thoroughly investigated the impact of different preprocessing methods (Independent Component Analysis, Empirical Mode Decomposition, bandpass filtering) and visualization techniques (spectrograms, scalograms) on the classification performance of multichannel EEG signals. Additionally, we explored the utilization and potential contributions of deep learning models, particularly Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), in EEG-based classification processes. The novelty of this study lies in its comprehensive examination of the potential of deep learning models, specifically in distinguishing between resting state and motor imagery swallowing processes, using a diverse combination of EEG signal preprocessing and visualization techniques. The results showed that it was possible to distinguish the resting state from the imagination of swallowing with 89.8% accuracy, especially using continuous wavelet transform (CWT) based scalograms. The findings of this study may provide significant contributions to the development of effective methods for the rehabilitation and treatment of swallowing difficulties based on motor imagery-based brain computer interfaces.
