SpaTeoGL: Spatiotemporal Graph Learning for Interpretable Seizure Onset Zone Analysis from Intracranial EEG

arXiv:2602. 11801v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Accurate localization of the seizure onset zone (SOZ) from intracranial EEG (iEEG) is essential for epilepsy surgery but is challenged by complex spatiotemporal seizure dynamics.

Spatiotemporal Hyperedges for EEG Seizure Detection and Prediction

The paper introduces HyBrain, a model that uses spatiotemporal hyperedges to capture coordinated EEG seizure activity more efficiently than pairwise edge approaches. By generating one token per channel per second and pooling them into shared hyperedge embeddings, HyBrain performs well across detection and prediction tasks on TUSZ and CHB‑MIT datasets, achieving top AUROC scores and competitive training resources. A qualitative example shows a single hyperedge tracking the preictal‑ictal‑postictal progression of a real seizure.

Graph-Based Approaches to Learning Epileptogenic Zone Localization Using Stereo-EEG Recordings

The study evaluates how different graph topologies influence the localization of the epileptogenic zone (EZ) from resting‑state stereo‑EEG recordings in 40 patients. Using a consistent learning model and leave‑one‑patient‑out validation, the authors compare dense graphs, anatomy‑ and geometry‑informed priors, budgeted sparsification, learned sparsification, and a new Region‑Bridge‑c topology. At about 30% edge retention, Region‑Bridge‑c achieves the highest mean PR‑AUC and ROC‑AUC while using roughly 69% fewer edges than a dense graph, indicating that graph construction significantly impacts EZ localization performance.

Time-Varying Graph Learning with Constraints on Graph Temporal Variation

The paper introduces a new framework for learning time‑varying graphs from spatiotemporal data, leveraging a prior on signal temporal behavior to estimate graphs from few measurements. It adds three convex regularization terms that enforce sparsity in the temporal changes of the network, and presents a scalable algorithm to solve the resulting optimization problem. Experiments on synthetic data and real datasets—including point clouds, temperature readings, and EEG signals—show that the method outperforms existing state‑of‑the‑art approaches.
