LERD: Latent Event-Relational Dynamics for Neurodegenerative Classification 文章

arXiv:2602.18195v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Alzheimer's disease (AD) alters brain electrophysiology and disrupts multichannel EEG dynamics, making accurate and clinically useful EEG-based diagnosis increasingly important for screening and disease monitoring. However, many existing approaches rely on black-box classifiers and do not explicitly model the latent event timing and cross-channel coordination behind their decisions. To address these limitations, we propose LERD, an end-to-end Bayesian latent event--relational dynamical system that infers latent neural events and their relational structure directly from multichannel EEG without event or interaction annotations. LERD combines a continuous-time event inference module with a stochastic event-generation process to capture flexible temporal patterns, while incorporating an electrophysiology-inspired dynamical prior to guide learning in a principled way.
