Medical diagnostic robot systems have been paid more and more attention due to its objectivity and accuracy. The diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is considered an effective means to prevent Alzheimers disease (AD). Doctors diagnose MCI based on various clinical examinations, which are expensive and the diagnosis results rely on the knowledge of doctors. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a robot diagnostic system to eliminate the influence of human factors and obtain a higher accuracy rate. In this paper, we propose a novel Group Feature Domain Adversarial Neural Network (GF-DANN) for amnestic MCI (aMCI) diagnosis, which involves two important modules. A Group Feature Extraction (GFE) module is proposed to reduce individual differences by learning group-level features through adversarial learning. A Dual Branch Domain Adaptation (DBDA) module is carefully designed to reduce the distribution difference between the source and target domain in a domain adaption way. On three types of data set, GF-DANN achieves the best accuracy compared with classic machine learning and deep learning methods. On the DMS data set, GF-DANN has obtained an accuracy rate of 89.47%, and the sensitivity and specificity are 90% and 89%. In addition, by comparing three EEG data collection paradigms, our results demonstrate that the DMS paradigm has the potential to build an aMCI diagnose robot system.

Multiple convolutional neural network (CNN) classifiers have been proposed for electroencephalogram (EEG) based brain-computer interfaces (BCIs). However, CNN models have been found vulnerable to universal adversarial perturbations (UAPs), which are small and example-independent, yet powerful enough to degrade the performance of a CNN model, when added to a benign example. This paper proposes a novel total loss minimization (TLM) approach to generate UAPs for EEG-based BCIs. Experimental results demonstrated the effectiveness of TLM on three popular CNN classifiers for both target and non-target attacks. We also verified the transferability of UAPs in EEG-based BCI systems. To our knowledge, this is the first study on UAPs of CNN classifiers in EEG-based BCIs. UAPs are easy to construct, and can attack BCIs in real-time, exposing a potentially critical security concern of BCIs.
Sleep staging is of great importance in the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders. Recently, numerous data driven deep learning models have been proposed for automatic sleep staging. They mainly rely on the assumption that training and testing data are drawn from the same distribution which may not hold in real-world scenarios. Unsupervised domain adaption (UDA) has been recently developed to handle this domain shift problem. However, previous UDA methods applied for sleep staging has two main limitations. First, they rely on a totally shared model for the domain alignment, which may lose the domain-specific information during feature extraction. Second, they only align the source and target distributions globally without considering the class information in the target domain, which hinders the classification performance of the model. In this work, we propose a novel adversarial learning framework to tackle the domain shift problem in the unlabeled target domain. First, we develop unshared attention mechanisms to preserve the domain-specific features in the source and target domains. Second, we design a self-training strategy to align the fine-grained class distributions for the source and target domains via target domain pseudo labels. We also propose dual distinct classifiers to increase the robustness and quality of the pseudo labels. The experimental results on six cross-domain scenarios validate the efficacy of our proposed framework for sleep staging and its advantage over state-of-the-art UDA methods.
Learning domain-invariant representation is a dominant approach for domain generalization (DG), where we need to build a classifier that is robust toward domain shifts. However, previous domain-invariance-based methods overlooked the underlying dependency of classes on domains, which is responsible for the trade-off between classification accuracy and domain invariance. Because the primary purpose of DG is to classify unseen domains rather than the invariance itself, the improvement of the invariance can negatively affect DG performance under this trade-off. To overcome the problem, this study first expands the analysis of the trade-off by Xie et. al., and provides the notion of accuracy-constrained domain invariance, which means the maximum domain invariance within a range that does not interfere with accuracy. We then propose a novel method adversarial feature learning with accuracy constraint (AFLAC), which explicitly leads to that invariance on adversarial training. Empirical validations show that the performance of AFLAC is superior to that of domain-invariance-based methods on both synthetic and three real-world datasets, supporting the importance of considering the dependency and the efficacy of the proposed method.
The cross-subject application of EEG-based brain-computer interface (BCI) has always been limited by large individual difference and complex characteristics that are difficult to perceive. Therefore, it takes a long time to collect the training data of each user for calibration. Even transfer learning method pre-training with amounts of subject-independent data cannot decode different EEG signal categories without enough subject-specific data. Hence, we proposed a cross-subject EEG classification framework with a generative adversarial networks (GANs) based method named common spatial GAN (CS-GAN), which used adversarial training between a generator and a discriminator to obtain high-quality data for augmentation. A particular module in the discriminator was employed to maintain the spatial features of the EEG signals and increase the difference between different categories, with two losses for further enhancement. Through adaptive training with sufficient augmentation data, our cross-subject classification accuracy yielded a significant improvement of 15.85% than leave-one subject-out (LOO) test and 8.57% than just adapting 100 original samples on the dataset 2a of BCI competition IV. Moreover, We designed a convolutional neural networks (CNNs) based classification method as a benchmark with a similar spatial enhancement idea, which achieved remarkable results to classify motor imagery EEG data. In summary, our framework provides a promising way to deal with the cross-subject problem and promote the practical application of BCI.
Electricity load forecasting is crucial for the power systems planning and maintenance. However, its un-stationary and non-linear characteristics impose significant difficulties in anticipating future demand. This paper proposes a novel ensemble deep Random Vector Functional Link (edRVFL) network for electricity load forecasting. The weights of hidden layers are randomly initialized and kept fixed during the training process. The hidden layers are stacked to enforce deep representation learning. Then, the model generates the forecasts by ensembling the outputs of each layer. Moreover, we also propose to augment the random enhancement features by empirical wavelet transformation (EWT). The raw load data is decomposed by EWT in a walk-forward fashion, not introducing future data leakage problems in the decomposition process. Finally, all the sub-series generated by the EWT, including raw data, are fed into the edRVFL for forecasting purposes. The proposed model is evaluated on twenty publicly available time series from the Australian Energy Market Operator of the year 2020. The simulation results demonstrate the proposed models superior performance over eleven forecasting methods in three error metrics and statistical tests on electricity load forecasting tasks.
