Selective peripheral nerve recordings from nerve cuff electrodes using convolutional neural networks
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Objective . Recording and stimulating from the peripheral nervous system are becoming important components in a new generation of bioelectronics systems. Although neurostimulation has seen a history of successful chronic applications in humans, peripheral nerve recording in humans chronically remains a challenge. Multi-contact nerve cuff electrode configurations have the potential to improve recording selectivity. We introduce the idea of using a convolutional neural network (CNN) to associate recordings of individual naturally evoked compound action potentials (CAPs) with neural pathways of interest, by exploiting the spatiotemporal patterns in multi-contact nerve cuff recordings. Approach . Nine Long-Evan rats were implanted with a 56-channel nerve cuff electrode on the sciatic nerve and afferent activity was selectively evoked in different fascicles (tibial, peroneal, sural) using mechanical stimuli. A recurrent neural network was then used to predict joint angles based on the predicted firing patterns from the CNN. Performance was measured based on the classification accuracy, F 1 -score and the ability to track the ankle joint angle. Main results . Classification accuracy and F 1 -score of the best CNN configuration were and 0.747 ± 0.114, respectively. The mean Pearson correlation coefficient between the manually measured ankle angle and the angle predicted from the estimated firing rate was Significance . The proposed method demonstrates that CAP-based classification can be achieved with high accuracy and can be used to track a physiological meaningful measure (e.g. joint angle). These results provide a promising direction for realizing more effective and intuitive neuroprosthetic systems.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
