摘要: 近红外脑功能成像技术(functional near-infrared spectroscopy, fNIRS)是一种新型、无创的脑功能检测技术。由于光源探测器与头皮之间的相对运动会引起信号的运动伪影,严重影响信号质量,这也成为了如今该技术的一个重要研究方向。经过多年的研究与发展,人们已经提出小波滤波、样条插值、主成分分析、基于相关的信号改进、深度学习等运动伪影去除技术。本文旨在系统地总结已有的运动伪影去除技术,并阐述了当前普遍使用的定量评价指标:均方误差(MSE)、皮尔逊相关性(R)、平均绝对百分比误差(MAPE)、曲线下面积(AUC)。最后总结了在运动伪影去除领域研究的不足,并提出展望。
Abstract: Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is a new, non-invasive technique for detecting brain function. Because the relative motion between the light source detector and the scalp causes the motion artifact of the signal, the signal quality is seriously affected, which has become an important research direction of this technology. After years of research and development, people have proposed wavelet filtering, spline interpolation, principal component analysis, Deep learning, correlation based signal improvement and other motion artifact removal techniques. The purpose of this paper is to systematically summarize the existing motion artifact removal techniques, and describe the commonly used quantitative evaluation indexes: mean square error (MSE), Pearson correlation (R), mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), and area under the curve (AUC). Finally, the shortcomings of the research in the field of motion artifact removal are summarized, and the prospect is put forward.
