A swap-adversarial framework for domain generalization in pre- and post-stimulation Parkinsonian state classification
arXiv:2602.10528v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We propose a novel swap-adversarial framework that mitigates high inter-subject variability and the high-dimensional low-sample-size problem in electrocorticography (ECoG) data. It achieves robust domain generalization across ECoG and electroencephalography (EEG)-based brain-computer interface datasets. Our framework integrates (1) robust preprocessing, (2) inter-subject balanced channel swap (ISBCS) for cross-subject augmentation, and (3) domain-adversarial learning (DAL) to suppress subject-specific bias. The ISBCS method is a bio-inspired channel swapping strategy that exchanges only functionally corresponding channels across subjects, guided by a brain map, to mitigate inter-subject distribution differences. The DAL strategy encourages the model to learn task-relevant shared features. In addition, we introduce a new ECoG dataset, the first reproducible benchmark, which is constructed from long-term ECoG recordings of 6-hydroxydopamine-induced rat models and annotated with neural responses measured before and after electrical stimulation. We validate the effectiveness of this framework through extensive experiments under cross-subject, cross-session, and cross-dataset settings. Our results show that the proposed framework exhibits the best and robust generalization performance both for our newly constructed ECoG and public EEG datasets.
