Physiologically Grounded Driver Behavior Classification: SHAP-Driven Elite Feature Selection and Hybrid Gradient Boosting for Multimodal Physiological Signals

An interpretable and scalable framework for decoding driving behaviors from multimodal physiological signals is proposed in this study. We utilize multimodal physiological driving behavior large-scale dataset comprising synchronized electroencephalogram (EEG), electromyography (EMG), and galvanic skin response (GSR) signals. Our approach involves rigorous preprocessing followed by a domain-specific feature extraction pipeline targeting time-domain, frequency-domain, and derived physiological indices. To address high dimensionality, we employ SHAP-based elite feature selection, retaining the top 250 features to reduce computational overhead while preserving predictive power. Hyperparameter optimization for extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) and light gradient boosting machine (LightGBM) models is conducted using Bayesian optimization via Optuna. Finally, a weighted soft-voting ensemble is constructed to leverage the complementary strengths of both gradient boosting frameworks. The results demonstrate that the proposed ensemble achieves a test accuracy of 80.91% and a macro-F1 score of 0.79, significantly outperforming single-modality baselines and traditional machine learning models. Ablation studies confirm an 8% performance gain over the best single modality (EEG), validating the necessity of multimodal fusion. SHAP analysis further validates the physiological plausibility of the model, revealing that the EEG contributes the majority of predictive weight, GSR and EMG features provide critical discriminatory signals for high-arousal and motor-intensive maneuvers.

QiVC-Net: Quantum-Inspired Variational Convolutional Network, with Application to Biosignal Classification

In this paper, a learning framework is introduced which incorporates principles of probabilistic inference, variational optimization, and geometry-preserving operations inspired by quantum transformations. The central innovation of this quantum-inspired variational convolution (QiVC) lies in its quantum-inspired rotated ensemble (QiRE) mechanism. QiRE performs differentiable low-dimensional subspace rotations of convolutional weights. By drawing a mathematical analogy from unitary evolution, this approach enables structured uncertainty modeling that respects the intrinsic geometry of the parameter space. To demonstrate its practical potential, the concept is instantiated in a QiVC-based convolutional network (QiVC-Net) and evaluated in the context of biosignal classification, focusing on phonocardiogram (PCG) recordings. The proposed QiVC-Net integrates an architecture in which the QiVC layer does not introduce additional parameters, instead performing an ensemble rotation of the convolutional weights through a structured mechanism ensuring robustness without added highly computational burden. Experiments on two benchmark datasets, PhysioNet CinC 2016 and PhysioNet CirCor DigiScope 2022, show that QiVC-Net achieves state-of-the-art performance, reaching accuracies of 97.84% and 97.89%, respectively. These findings highlight the versatility of the QiVC framework and its promise for advancing uncertainty-aware modeling in real-world biomedical signal analysis. The implementation of the QiVConv layer is available in GitHub for public use.

Adaptive Real-Time Multi-Loss Function Optimization Using Dynamic Memory Fusion Framework: A Case Study on Breast Cancer Segmentation

Deep learning has proven to be a highly effective tool for a wide range of applications, significantly when leveraging the power of multi-loss functions to optimize performance on multiple criteria simultaneously. However, optimal selection and weighting loss functions in deep learning tasks can significantly influence model performance, yet manual tuning of these functions is often inefficient and inflexible. We propose a novel framework called dynamic memory fusion for adaptive multi-loss function penalizing in real-time to address this. This framework leverages historical loss values data to dynamically adjust the weighting of multiple loss functions throughout the training process. Additionally, this framework integrates an auxiliary loss function to enhance model performance in the early stages. To further research horizons, we introduce the class-balanced dice loss function, designed to address class imbalance by prioritizing underrepresented classes. Experiments on breast ultrasound datasets demonstrate that the framework improves segmentation performance across various metrics. These results demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed framework in ensuring that the model dynamically adjusts its focus to prioritize the most relevant criteria, leading to improved performance in evolving environments. The source code for our proposed methodology is publicly available on GitHub.
