Abstract
Adaptive Deep Brain Stimulation (aDBS) has been proposed in literature to avoid the negative consequences associated with the continuous stimulation delivered through traditional deep brain stimulation. This work seeks to determine a group of neural biomarkers that a classification algorithm could use on an aDBS device using rodent animal models. The neural activities were acquired from the primary motor cortex of four Parkinsonian model rats and four healthy rats from a control group. To overcome the variability introduced from the small rat sample size, this work proposes a novel method for combining and running Genetic Feature Selection and Forward Stepwise Feature Selection in an environment where classification accuracy varies greatly based on how the folds are organized before cross-validation. Three separate classification algorithms, Logistic Regression, k-Nearest Neighbor, and Random Forest are used to verify the proposed method. For Logistic Regression, the set of Alpha Power (7-12 Hz), High Beta Power (20-30 Hz), and 55-95 Hz Gamma Power shows the best performance in classification. For k-Nearest Neighbor, the characterizing features are Low Beta Power (12-20 Hz), High Beta Power, All Beta Power (12-30 Hz), 55-95 Hz Gamma Power, and 95-105 Hz Gamma Power. For Random Forest, they are High Beta Power, All Beta Power, 55-95 Hz Gamma Power, 95-105 Hz Gamma Power, and 300-350 Hz High-Frequency Oscillations Power. With the selected feature set, experimental results show an increasing classification accuracy from 59.08% to 77.69% for Logistic Regression, from 49.53% to 73.44% for k-Nearest Neighbor, and from 54.10% to 71.15% for Random Forest. Clinical Relevance- This experiment provides a method for determining the most effective biomarkers from a larger set for classifying Parkinsonian behavior for an aDBS device.
