改进的Searchlight方法及其在fMRI中的应用
首发时间:2015-12-10
摘要:脑成像技术已成为研究人和动物大脑结构和功能的重要手段,功能磁共振成像技术(fMRI)具有无创伤、高时空分辨率和可重复操作等优势,因而被广泛应用于脑科学研究。近年来,随着机器学习方法被应用于fMRI实验数据分析处理,多体素模式分析等方法越来越受到重视。这种多元的新分析方法不仅考虑了fMRI数据在时间序列上的规律,更考虑了多个体素空间上的关系,这种方法对空间信息更加敏感,可以挖掘出更多单元分析所挖掘不到的信息。本文介绍可以进行全脑搜索定位的searchlight方法并将递归特征消除方法引入searchlight的特征选择中,对原始searchlight方法进行了改进,并通过实验验证了改进的方法对信息更加敏感,尤其在较小的区分体素区域表现的更好。

Improved Searchlight Method and the application in fMRI
Abstract:The brain with complex structure has been studied for many years. The studies about brain are not only focused on the anatomical structure, but also the function of brain nowadays, because of the development of the neuroimaging technique. Function Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) has advantages of being not traumatic to human body, high resolution of time and space and being easily conducted repeatedly. fMRI has been widely used in the field of cognitive psychology.Recent, machine learning has been introduced into fMRI data analysis. This kind of multivariate method computes not only the relation of the time series but also the space relation of different voxels and is more sensitive to the space relations.This paper introduces frequently-used multivariate methods especially "Searchlight" which can locate an area in the whole brain using multivariate methods. We improved Searchlight by introducing the algorithm of recursive feature elimination (RFE) into origin Searchlight. And prove the advantages of the improved method by several experiments.
