Abstract: The seizure early warning devices based on multichannel EEG signals is one of the most used assisted-living strategies for drug-resistant epileptic patients. One of the challenges in the development of these devices is that existing algorithms cannot avoid the effects of electrode loosening. To alleviate such problem, a seizure prediction model robust to corrupted EEG recordings is proposed in this paper. This method intends to learn a stable feature space adapted to different corruption versions via constructing a jointly-optimized autoencoder. Robust information is captured during the reconstruction process by developing a corruption module, while an adversarial training procedure circumvents overfitting using variational inference. Moreover, a regularization term is designed to minimize the distance among various corruption versions in the embedding space with the Riemannian manifold-based distribution alignment. Both raw EEG data and corrupted EEG data are utilized to evaluate prediction performance. Experimental results indicate that this method can predict seizures effectively and stably under the condition of electrode looseness.
