Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of magnetoencephalography signal denoising processing, in particular to a method and system for automatic identification and repair of bad segments of magnetoencephalography based on joint diagonalization. BACKGROUND
[0002] Magnetoencephalography (MEG) is a kind of magnetic source imaging technology that can measure brain neural activity in real time and completely non-invasively. It reflects specific physiological activities of the brain by measuring the magnetic field signals generated by brain neural current activity. Compared with other functional imaging technologies such as electroencephalogram (EEG) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), MEG is not affected by factors such as tissue conductivity and skull thickness, and has high temporal and spatial resolution.
[0003] In recent years, with the development of optically pumped magnetometers, not only has the sensitivity and portability made great breakthroughs, but also the cost and maintenance cost are relatively low, which makes up for the shortcomings of traditional superconducting quantum interference device-based MEG equipment, such as high operating cost and long distance between probe and measured object. It has broad prospects in brain science research and clinical medical applications.
[0004] However, due to the wearable characteristics, when collecting MEG data, it is inevitable to be affected by the head movement of the measured object, resulting in the existence of bad segments in the collected data. In addition, the instability of the optically pumped magnetometer during the measurement process and the interference of the external environment also easily lead to the generation of high-amplitude artifacts in some time periods. These high-amplitude artifacts are easy to affect the subsequent preprocessing steps, especially the subspace projection method commonly used in MEG, which is easy to be affected by high-amplitude bad segments and to spread bad segments to other channels. Therefore, before other preprocessing steps, it is necessary to visually inspect the data and remove the part of the data with bad segments, but this is a time-consuming and laborious work and is greatly affected by subjectivity.
[0005] Currently, the main strategies for handling bad segments are as follows: ①directly removing high-amplitude artifacts across multiple channels and repairing artifacts existing in a small number of channels through interpolation; ②projecting a certain channel into the subspace spanned by other channels. However, whether it is directly removing bad segments or interpolating through other channels, it will reduce the capacity of the data, especially when the number of channels is small, the interpolation method may have a large error; and the method of projecting into the subspace determined by other channels can only repair channel-specific noise, i.e. when other channels also have artifacts at the same time, this method does not work. And most of the above methods currently need manual marking or input parameters, and there are currently few fully automatic bad segment identification and repair methods, so a fast and automatic bad segment identification and repair method is needed to improve the data quality and processing efficiency of MEG signals. SUMMARY
