Understanding how certain brain regions relate to a specific neurological disorder has been an important area of neuroimaging research. A promising approach to identify the salient regions is using Graph Neural Networks (GNNs), which can be used to analyze graph structured data, e.g. brain networks constructed by functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). We propose an interpretable GNN framework with a novel salient region selection mechanism to determine neurological brain biomarkers associated with disorders. Specifically, we design novel regularized pooling layers that highlight salient regions of interests (ROIs) so that we can infer which ROIs are important to identify a certain disease based on the node pooling scores calculated by the pooling layers. Our proposed framework, Pooling Regularized-GNN (PR-GNN), encourages reasonable ROI-selection and provides flexibility to preserve either individual- or group-level patterns. We apply the PR-GNN framework on a Biopoint Autism Spectral Disorder (ASD) fMRI dataset. We investigate different choices of the hyperparameters and show that PR-GNN outperforms baseline methods in terms of classification accuracy. The salient ROI detection results show high correspondence with the previous neuroimaging-derived biomarkers for ASD.

Graph convolutional neural networks (GCNNs) are a powerful extension of deep learning techniques to graph-structured data problems. We empirically evaluate several pooling methods for GCNNs, and combinations of those graph pooling methods with three different architectures: GCN, TAGCN, and GraphSAGE. We confirm that graph pooling, especially DiffPool, improves classification accuracy on popular graph classification datasets and find that, on average, TAGCN achieves comparable or better accuracy than GCN and GraphSAGE, particularly for datasets with larger and sparser graph structures.

While functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is important for healthcare/neuroscience applications, it is challenging to classify or interpret due to its multi-dimensional structure, high dimensionality, and small number of samples available. R ecent sparse multilinear regression methods based on tensor are emerging as promising solutions for fMRI, yet existing works rely on unfolding/folding operations and a tensor rank relaxation with limited tightness. The newly proposed tensor singular value decomposition (t-SVD) sheds light on new directions. In this work, we study t-SVD for sparse multilinear regression and propose a Sparse tubal-regularized multilinear regression (Sturm) method for fMRI. Specifically, the Sturm model performs multilinear regression with two regularization terms: a tubal tensor nuclear norm based on t-SVD and a standard L1 norm. We further derive the algorithm under the alternating direction method of multipliers framework. We perform experiments on four classification problems, including both resting-state fMRI for disease diagnosis and task-based fMRI for neural decoding. The results show the superior performance of Sturm in classifying fMRI using just a small number of voxels.
Recent years have witnessed the emergence and development of graph neural networks (GNNs), which have been shown as a powerful approach for graph representation learning in many tasks, such as node classification and graph classification. The researc h on the robustness of these models has also started to attract attentions in the machine learning field. However, most of the existing work in this area focus on the GNNs for node-level tasks, while little work has been done to study the robustness of the GNNs for the graph classification task. In this paper, we aim to explore the vulnerability of the Hierarchical Graph Pooling (HGP) Neural Networks, which are advanced GNNs that perform very well in the graph classification in terms of prediction accuracy. We propose an adversarial attack framework for this task. Specifically, we design a surrogate model that consists of convolutional and pooling operators to generate adversarial samples to fool the hierarchical GNN-based graph classification models. We set the preserved nodes by the pooling operator as our attack targets, and then we perturb the attack targets slightly to fool the pooling operator in hierarchical GNNs so that they will select the wrong nodes to preserve. We show the adversarial samples generated from multiple datasets by our surrogate model have enough transferability to attack current state-of-art graph classification models. Furthermore, we conduct the robust train on the target models and demonstrate that the retrained graph classification models are able to better defend against the attack from the adversarial samples. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work on the adversarial attack against hierarchical GNN-based graph classification models.
Non-local operation is widely explored to model the long-range dependencies. However, the redundant computation in this operation leads to a prohibitive complexity. In this paper, we present a Representative Graph (RepGraph) layer to dynamically samp le a few representative features, which dramatically reduces redundancy. Instead of propagating the messages from all positions, our RepGraph layer computes the response of one node merely with a few representative nodes. The locations of representative nodes come from a learned spatial offset matrix. The RepGraph layer is flexible to integrate into many visual architectures and combine with other operations. With the application of semantic segmentation, without any bells and whistles, our RepGraph network can compete or perform favourably against the state-of-the-art methods on three challenging benchmarks: ADE20K, Cityscapes, and PASCAL-Context datasets. In the task of object detection, our RepGraph layer can also improve the performance on the COCO dataset compared to the non-local operation. Code is available at https://git.io/RepGraph.

Much of the recent efforts on salient object detection (SOD) have been devoted to producing accurate saliency maps without being aware of their instance labels. To this end, we propose a new pipeline for end-to-end salient instance segmentation (SIS) that predicts a class-agnostic mask for each detected salient instance. To better use the rich feature hierarchies in deep networks and enhance the side predictions, we propose the regularized dense connections, which attentively promote informative features and suppress non-informative ones from all feature pyramids. A novel multi-level RoIAlign based decoder is introduced to adaptively aggregate multi-level features for better mask predictions. Such strategies can be well-encapsulated into the Mask R-CNN pipeline. Extensive experiments on popular benchmarks demonstrate that our design significantly outperforms existing sArt competitors by 6.3% (58.6% vs. 52.3%) in terms of the AP metric.The code is available at https://github.com/yuhuan-wu/RDPNet.
