Modelling Peri-Perceptual Brain Processes in a Deep Learning Spiking Neural Network Architecture.

ABSTRACT: Familiarity of marketing stimuli may affect consumer behaviour at a peri-perceptual processing level. The current study introduces a method for deep learning of electroencephalogram (EEG) data using a spiking neural network (SNN) approach that reveals the complexity of peri-perceptual processes of familiarity. The method is applied to data from 20 participants viewing familiar and unfamiliar logos. The results support the potential of SNN models as novel tools in the exploration of peri-perceptual mechanisms that respond differentially to familiar and unfamiliar stimuli. Specifically, the activation pattern of the time-locked response identified by the proposed SNN model at approximately 200 milliseconds post-stimulus suggests greater connectivity and more widespread dynamic spatio-temporal patterns for familiar than unfamiliar logos. The proposed SNN approach can be applied to study other peri-perceptual or perceptual brain processes in cognitive and computational neuroscience.

Project description:One of the modern trends in the design of human-machine interfaces (HMI) is to involve the so called spiking neuron networks (SNNs) in signal processing. The SNNs can be trained by simple and efficient biologically inspired algorithms. In particular, we have shown that sensory neurons in the input layer of SNNs can simultaneously encode the input signal based both on the spiking frequency rate and on varying the latency in generating spikes. In the case of such mixed temporal-rate coding, the SNN should implement learning working properly for both types of coding. Based on this, we investigate how a single neuron can be trained with pure rate and temporal patterns, and then build a universal SNN that is trained using mixed coding. In particular, we study Hebbian and competitive learning in SNN in the context of temporal and rate coding problems. We show that the use of Hebbian learning through pair-based and triplet-based spike timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) rule is accomplishable for temporal coding, but not for rate coding. Synaptic competition inducing depression of poorly used synapses is required to ensure a neural selectivity in the rate coding. This kind of competition can be implemented by the so-called forgetting function that is dependent on neuron activity. We show that coherent use of the triplet-based STDP and synaptic competition with the forgetting function is sufficient for the rate coding. Next, we propose a SNN capable of classifying electromyographical (EMG) patterns using an unsupervised learning procedure. The neuron competition achieved via lateral inhibition ensures the "winner takes all" principle among classifier neurons. The SNN also provides gradual output response dependent on muscular contraction strength. Furthermore, we modify the SNN to implement a supervised learning method based on stimulation of the target classifier neuron synchronously with the network input. In a problem of discrimination of three EMG patterns, the SNN with supervised learning shows median accuracy 99.5% that is close to the result demonstrated by multi-layer perceptron learned by back propagation of an error algorithm.
