Abstract

Introduction: In the medical and veterinary fields, understanding the significance of physiological signals for assessing patient state, diagnosis, and treatment outcomes is paramount. There are, in the domain of machine learning (ML), very many methods capable of performing automatic feature selection. We here explore how such methods can be applied to select features from electroencephalogram (EEG) signals to allow the prediction of depth of anesthesia (DoA) in pigs receiving propofol.Methods: We evaluated numerous ML methods and observed that these algorithms can be classified into groups based on similarities in selected feature sets explainable by the mathematical bases behind those approaches. We limit our discussion to the group of methods that have at their core the computation of variances, such as Pearson’s and Spearman’s correlations, principal component analysis (PCA), and ReliefF algorithms.Results: Our analysis has shown that from an extensive list of time and frequency domain EEG features, the best predictors of DoA were spectral power (SP), and its density ratio applied specifically to high-frequency intervals (beta and gamma ranges), as well as burst suppression ratio, spectral edge frequency and entropy applied to the whole spectrum of frequencies.Discussion: We have also observed that data resolution plays an essential role not only in feature importance but may impact prediction stability. Therefore, when selecting the SP features, one might prioritize SP features over spectral bands larger than 1 Hz, especially for frequencies above 14 Hz.
