ARNN: Attentive Recurrent Neural Network for Multi-channel EEG Signals to Identify Epileptic Seizures
<|reference_start|>ARNN: Attentive Recurrent Neural Network for Multi-channel EEG Signals to Identify Epileptic Seizures: We proposed an Attentive Recurrent Neural Network (ARNN), which recurrently applies attention layers along a sequence and has linear complexity with respect to the sequence length. The proposed model operates on multi-channel EEG signals rather than single channel signals and leverages parallel computation. In this cell, the attention layer is a computational unit that efficiently applies self-attention and cross-attention mechanisms to compute a recurrent function over a wide number of state vectors and input signals. Our architecture is inspired in part by the attention layer and long short-term memory (LSTM) cells, and it uses long-short style gates, but it scales this typical cell up by several orders to parallelize for multi-channel EEG signals. It inherits the advantages of attention layers and LSTM gate while avoiding their respective drawbacks. We evaluated the model effectiveness through extensive experiments with heterogeneous datasets, including the CHB-MIT and UPenn and Mayos Clinic, CHB-MIT datasets. The empirical findings suggest that the ARNN model outperforms baseline methods such as LSTM, Vision Transformer (ViT), Compact Convolution Transformer (CCT), and R-Transformer (RT), showcasing superior performance and faster processing capabilities across a wide range of tasks.
