XDL-ESI: Electrophysiological Sources Imaging via explainable deep learning framework with validation on simultaneous EEG and iEEG
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Electroencephalography (EEG) or Magnetoencephalography (MEG) source imaging aims to estimate the underlying activated brain sources to explain the observed EEG/MEG recordings. Solving the inverse problem of EEG/MEG Source Imaging (ESI) is challenging due to its ill-posed nature. To achieve a unique solution, it is essential to apply sophisticated regularization constraints to restrict the solution space. Traditionally, the design of regularization terms is based on assumptions about the spatiotemporal structure of the underlying source dynamics. In this paper, we propose a novel paradigm for ESI via an Explainable Deep Learning framework, termed as XDL-ESI, which connects the iterative optimization algorithm with deep learning architecture by unfolding the iterative updates with neural network modules. The proposed framework has the advantages of (1) establishing a data-driven approach to model the source solution structure instead of using hand-crafted regularization terms; (2) improving the robustness of source solutions by introducing a topological loss that leverages the geometric spatial information applying varying penalties on distinct localization errors; (3) improving the reconstruction efficiency and interpretability as it inherits the advantages from both the iterative optimization algorithms (interpretability) and deep learning approaches (function approximation). The proposed XDL-ESI framework provides an efficient, accurate, and interpretable paradigm to solve the ESI inverse problem with satisfactory performance in both simulated data and real clinical data. Specially, this approach is further validated using simultaneous EEG and intracranial EEG (iEEG). • A novel explainable deep learning framework for EEG/MEG source imaging (XDL-ESI) is proposed. • XDL-ESI is based on the Unrolled Optimization Neural Networks (UONN). • XDL-ESI establishes a data-driven way to learn the spatial-temporal regularizations. • XDL-ESI has the advantages of interpretability and great approximation capability. • XDL-ESI demonstrates good performance validated with simultaneously recorded EEG and iEEG.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 teacher head, not a consensus.
