Abstract
This paper presents an adaptable dictionary-based feature extraction approach for spike sorting offering high accuracy and low computational complexity for implantable applications. It extracts and learns identifiable features from evolving subspaces through matched unsupervised subspace filtering. To provide compatibility with the strict constraints in implantable devices such as the chip area and power budget, the dictionary contains arrays of {-1, 0 and 1} and the algorithm need only process addition and subtraction operations. Three types of such dictionary were considered. To quantify and compare the performance of the resulting three feature extractors with existing systems, a neural signal simulator based on several different libraries was developed. For noise levels σN between 0.05 and 0.3 and groups of 3 to 6 clusters, all three feature extractors provide robust high performance with average classification errors of less than 8% over five iterations, each consisting of 100 generated data segments. To our knowledge, the proposed adaptive feature extractors are the first able to classify reliably 6 clusters for implantable applications. An ASIC implementation of the best performing dictionary-based feature extractor was synthesized in a 65-nm CMOS process. It occupies an area of 0.09 mm2 and dissipates up to about 10.48 μW from a 1 V supply voltage, when operating with 8-bit resolution at 30 kHz operating frequency.
