为了改善脑电中的眼电伪迹过估计问题及环境干扰耦合引起的非线性混合对眼电去除效果的影响,提出一种基于快速核独立成分分析(Fast Kernel Independent Component Analysis,Fast KICA)与离散小波变换(Discrete Wavelet Transform,DWT)的眼电自动去除方法,即(Fast Kernel Independent Wavelet Transform,FKIWT)方法.首先,利用Fast KICA方法对脑电信号进行分离得到独立成分,并以相关系数为依据识别出眼电伪迹;进而,基于DWT对眼电伪迹进行多分辨率分析,将逼近分量置零,而细节分量保持不变,使得重构所得眼电伪迹成分保留更多有用脑电信号;最后,利用Fast KICA逆变换重建眼电去除后的脑电信号.实验结果表明:FKIWT不仅有效改善了眼电过估计问题,增强了抗干扰能力和鲁棒性,而且在线性混合和非线性混合情况下,均得到较好的伪迹去除效果,特别是在非线性混合时优势更为明显,适合于实际在线应用.
In order to improve the overestimation of ocular artifacts (OA) in electroencephalogram (EEG) and the OA removal effect of nonlinear mixture caused by environmental interference coupling, a novel automatic removal method is proposed based on fast kernel independent component analysis (FastKICA) and discrete wavelet transform (DWT),and it is denoted as FKIWF. The independent components are separated from the mixed EEG by using the FastKICA algorithm, and the correlation co- efficient is applied to identify OA component;Then,the Multiresolution analysis of OA is achieved with DWT,the approximation wavelet coefficients are set to zero and the detail wavelet coefficients are not changed. So more useful EEG is remained in the reconstructed OA component ;Furthermore,the clean EEG is restored with the inverse algorithm of FastKICA. The experimental results showthat FKIWT can effectively improve the overestimation of OA and has perfect anti-interference ability and robustness. Meanwhile,the better effects of OA elimination are also obtained on the condition that the linear or nonlinear mixed model is adopted,and the latter' s advantage is especially obvious. The FK is suitable for on-line application.
