Introduction

This is the Army Research Laboratory (ARL) EEGModels project: A Collection of Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) models for EEG signal processing and classification, written in Keras and Tensorflow. The aim of this project is to

  • provide a set of well-validated CNN models for EEG signal processing and classification
  • facilitate reproducible research and
  • enable other researchers to use and compare these models as easy as possible on their data

Requirements

  • Python == 3.7 or 3.8
  • tensorflow == 2.X (verified working with 2.0 - 2.3, both for CPU and GPU)

To run the EEG/MEG ERP classification sample script, you will also need

  • mne >= 0.17.1
  • PyRiemann >= 0.2.5
  • scikit-learn >= 0.20.1
  • matplotlib >= 2.2.3

Models Implemented

  • EEGNet [1]. Both the original model and the revised model are implemented.
  • EEGNet variant used for classification of Steady State Visual Evoked Potential (SSVEP) Signals [2]
  • DeepConvNet [3]
  • ShallowConvNet [3]

Usage

To use this package, place the contents of this folder in your PYTHONPATH environment variable. Then, one can simply import any model and configure it as

from EEGModels import EEGNet, ShallowConvNet, DeepConvNet

model  = EEGNet(nb_classes = ..., Chans = ..., Samples = ...)

model2 = ShallowConvNet(nb_classes = ..., Chans = ..., Samples = ...)

model3 = DeepConvNet(nb_classes = ..., Chans = ..., Samples = ...)

Compile the model with the associated loss function and optimizer (in our case, the categorical cross-entropy and Adam optimizer, respectively). Then fit the model and predict on new test data.

model.compile(loss = 'categorical_crossentropy', optimizer = 'adam')
fittedModel    = model.fit(...)
predicted      = model.predict(...)

EEGNet Feature Explainability

Note: Please see #29 for additional steps needed to get this to work with Tensorflow 2.

To reproduce the EEGNet single-trial feature relevance results as we reported in [1], download and install DeepExplain located [here], which implements a variety of relevance attribution methods (both gradient-based and perturbation-based). A sketch of how to use it is given below:

from EEGModels import EEGNet
from tensorflow.keras.models import Model
from deepexplain.tensorflow import DeepExplain
from tensorflow.keras import backend as K

# configure, compile and fit the model
 
model          = EEGNet(nb_classes = ..., Chans = ..., Samples = ...)
model.compile(loss = 'categorical_crossentropy', optimizer = 'adam')
fittedModel    = model.fit(...)

# use DeepExplain to get individual trial feature relevances for some test data (X_test, Y_test). 
# Note that model.layers[-2] points to the dense layer prior to softmax activation. Also, we use
# the DeepLIFT method in the paper, although other options, including epsilon-LRP, are available.
# This works with all implemented models. 

# here, Y_test and X_test are the one-hot encodings of the class labels and
# the data, respectively. 

with DeepExplain(session = K.get_session()) as de:
	input_tensor   = model.layers[0].input
	fModel         = Model(inputs = input_tensor, outputs = model.layers[-2].output)    
	target_tensor  = fModel(input_tensor)    

	# can use epsilon-LRP as well if you like.
	attributions   = de.explain('deeplift', target_tensor * Y_test, input_tensor, X_test)
	# attributions = de.explain('elrp', target_tensor * Y_test, input_tensor, X_test)
