Evaluation of Strategies Based on Wavelet-ICA and ICLabel for Artifact Correction in EEG Recordings

ABSTRACT: In quantitative electroencephalography, it is of vital importance to eliminate non-neural components, as these can lead to an erroneous analysis of the ac quired signals, limiting their use in diagnosis and other clinical applications. In light of this drawback, preprocessing pipelines based on the joint use of the Wavelet Transform and the Independent Com ponent Analysis technique (wICA) were proposed in the 2000s. Recently, with the advent of data-driven methods, deep learning models were developed for the automatic labeling of independent components, which constitutes an opportunity for the optimiza tion of ICA-based techniques. In this paper, ICLabel, one of these deep learning models, was added to the ICA methodology in order to explore its improve ment. To assess the usefulness of this approach, it was compared to different pipelines which feature the use of wICA and ICLabel independently and a lack thereof. The impact of each pipeline was mea sured by its capacity to highlight known statisti cal differences between asymptomatic carriers of the PSEN-1 E280A mutation and a healthy control group. Specifically, the between-group effect size and the P-values were calculated to compare the pipelines. The results show that using ICLabel for ar tifact removal can improve the effect size (ES) and that, by leveraging it with wICA, an artifact smooth ing approach that is less prone to the loss of neural information can be built.
