RESUMO

Topological data analysis (TDA) combined with machine learning (ML) algorithms is a powerful approach for investigating complex brain interaction patterns in neurological disorders such as epilepsy. However, the use of ML algorithms and TDA for analysis of aberrant brain interactions requires substantial domain knowledge in computing as well as pure mathematics. To lower the threshold for clinical and computational neuroscience researchers to effectively use ML algorithms together with TDA to study neurological disorders, we introduce an integrated web platform called MaTiLDA. MaTiLDA is the first tool that enables users to intuitively use TDA methods together with ML models to characterize interaction patterns derived from neurophysiological signal data such as electroencephalogram (EEG) recorded during routine clinical practice. MaTiLDA features support for TDA methods, such as persistent homology, that enable classification of signal data using ML models to provide insights into complex brain interaction patterns in neurological disorders. We demonstrate the practical use of MaTiLDA by analyzing high-resolution intracranial EEG from refractory epilepsy patients to characterize the distinct phases of seizure propagation to different brain regions. The MaTiLDA platform is available at: https://bmhinformatics.case.edu/nicworkflow/MaTiLDA.

RESUMO

The rapid adoption of machine learning (ML) algorithms in a wide range of biomedical applications has highlighted issues of trust and the lack of understanding regarding the results generated by ML algorithms. Recent studies have focused on developing interpretable ML models and establish guidelines for transparency and ethical use, ensuring the responsible integration of machine learning in healthcare. In this study, we demonstrate the effectiveness of ML interpretability methods to provide important insights into the dynamics of brain network interactions in epilepsy, a serious neurological disorder affecting more than 60 million persons worldwide. Using high-resolution intracranial electroencephalogram (EEG) recordings from a cohort of 16 patients, we developed high accuracy ML models to categorize these brain activity recordings into either seizure or non-seizure classes followed by a more complex task of delineating the different stages of seizure progression to different parts of the brain as a multi-class classification task. We applied three distinct types of interpretability methods to the high-accuracy ML models to gain an understanding of the relative contributions of different categories of brain interaction patterns, including multi-focii interactions, which play an important role in distinguishing between different states of the brain. The results of this study demonstrate for the first time that post-hoc interpretability methods enable us to understand why ML algorithms generate a given set of results and how variations in value of input values affect the accuracy of the ML algorithms. In particular, we show in this study that interpretability methods can be used to identify brain regions and interaction patterns that have a significant impact on seizure events. The results of this study highlight the importance of the integrated implementation of ML algorithms together with interpretability methods in aberrant brain network studies and the wider domain of biomedical research.

RESUMO

To preserve scientific data created by publicly and/or philanthropically funded research projects and to make it ready for exploitation using recent and ongoing advances in advanced and large-scale computational modeling methods, publicly available data must use in common, now-evolving standards for formatting, identifying and annotating should share data. The OpenNeuro.org archive, built first as a repository for magnetic resonance imaging data based on the Brain Imaging Data Structure formatting standards, aims to house and share all types of human neuroimaging data. Here, we present NEMAR.org, a web gateway to OpenNeuro data for human neuroelectromagnetic data. NEMAR allows users to search through, visually explore and assess the quality of shared electroencephalography (EEG), magnetoencephalography and intracranial EEG data and then to directly process selected data using high-performance computing resources of the San Diego Supercomputer Center via the Neuroscience Gateway (nsgportal.org, NSG), a freely available web portal to high-performance computing serving a variety of neuroscientific analysis environments and tools. Combined, OpenNeuro, NEMAR and NSG form an efficient, integrated data, tools and compute resource for human neuroimaging data analysis and meta-analysis. Database URL: https://nemar.org.

RESUMO

EEGLAB signal processing environment is currently the leading open-source software for processing electroencephalographic (EEG) data. The Neuroscience Gateway (NSG, nsgportal.org) is a web and API-based portal allowing users to easily run a variety of neuroscience-related software on high-performance computing (HPC) resources in the U.S. XSEDE network. We have reported recently (Delorme et al., 2019) on the Open EEGLAB Portal expansion of the free NSG services to allow the neuroscience community to build and run MATLAB pipelines using the EEGLAB tool environment. We are now releasing an EEGLAB plug-in, nsgportal, that interfaces EEGLAB with NSG directly from within EEGLAB running on MATLAB on any personal lab computer. The plug-in features a flexible MATLAB graphical user interface (GUI) that allows users to easily submit, interact with, and manage NSG jobs, and to retrieve and examine their results. Command line nsgportal tools supporting these GUI functionalities allow EEGLAB users and plug-in tool developers to build largely automated functions and workflows that include optional NSG job submission and processing. Here we present details on nsgportal implementation and documentation, provide user tutorials on example applications, and show sample test results comparing computation times using HPC versus laptop processing.

RESUMO

Biophysically detailed modeling provides an unmatched method to integrate data from many disparate experimental studies, and manipulate and explore with high precision the resultin brain circuit simulation. We developed a detailed model of the brain motor cortex circuits, simulating over 10,000 biophysically detailed neurons and 30 million synaptic connections. Optimization and evaluation of the cortical model parameters and responses was achieved via parameter exploration using grid search parameter sweeps and evolutionary algorithms. This involves running tens of thousands of simulations requiring significant computational resources. This paper describes our experience in setting up and using Google Compute Platform (GCP) with Slurm to run these large-scale simulations. We describe the best practices and solutions to the issues that arose during the process, and present preliminary results from running simulations on GCP.

RESUMO

Computational models are powerful tools for exploring the properties of complex biological systems. In neuroscience, data-driven models of neural circuits that span multiple scales are increasingly being used to understand brain function in health and disease. But their adoption and reuse has been limited by the specialist knowledge required to evaluate and use them. To address this, we have developed Open Source Brain, a platform for sharing, viewing, analyzing, and simulating standardized models from different brain regions and species. Model structure and parameters can be automatically visualized and their dynamical properties explored through browser-based simulations. Infrastructure and tools for collaborative interaction, development, and testing are also provided. We demonstrate how existing components can be reused by constructing new models of inhibition-stabilized cortical networks that match recent experimental results. These features of Open Source Brain improve the accessibility, transparency, and reproducibility of models and facilitate their reuse by the wider community.

RESUMO

The last few decades have seen the emergence of computational neuroscience as a mature field where researchers are interested in modeling complex and large neuronal systems and require access to high performance computing machines and associated cyber infrastructure to manage computational workflow and data. The neuronal simulation tools, used in this research field, are also implemented for parallel computers and suitable for high performance computing machines. But using these tools on complex high performance computing machines remains a challenge because of issues with acquiring computer time on these machines located at national supercomputer centers, dealing with complex user interface of these machines, dealing with data management and retrieval. The Neuroscience Gateway is being developed to alleviate and/or hide these barriers to entry for computational neuroscientists. It hides or eliminates, from the point of view of the users, all the administrative and technical barriers and makes parallel neuronal simulation tools easily available and accessible on complex high performance computing machines. It handles the running of jobs and data management and retrieval. This paper shares the early experiences in bringing up this gateway and describes the software architecture it is based on, how it is implemented, and how users can use this for computational neuroscience research using high performance computing at the back end. We also look at parallel scaling of some publicly available neuronal models and analyze the recent usage data of the neuroscience gateway.
