A Kernel-Based Approach for DBS Parameter Estimation
PROGRESS IN PATTERN RECOGNITION, IMAGE ANALYSIS, COMPUTER VISION, AND APPLICATIONS, CIARP 2016(2017)
Abstract
The volume of tissue activated (VTA) is commonly used as a tool to explain the effects of deep brain stimulation (DBS). The VTA allows visualizing the anatomically accurate reconstructions of the brain structures surrounding the DBS electrode as a 3D high-dimensional activate/non-activate image, which leads to important clinical applications, e.g., Parkinson's disease treatments. However, fixing the DBS parameters is not a straightforward task as it depends mainly on both the specialist expertise and the tissue properties. Here, we introduce a kernel-based approach to learn the DBS parameters from VTA data. Our methodology employs a kernel-based eigendecomposition from pairwise Hamming distances to extract relevant VTA patterns into a low-dimensional space. Further, DBS parameters estimation is carried out by employing a kernel-based multi-output regression and classification. The presented approach is tested under both isotropic and anisotropic conditions to validate its performance under realistic clinical environments. Obtained results show a significant reduction of the input VTA dimensionality after applying our scheme, which ensures suitable DBS parameters estimation accuracies and avoids over-fitting.
