Popis: Microelectrode recording (MER) signals are world-widely used for validating the planned trajectories in the procedure of deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery to obtain accurate position of electrodes inside the brain structure. Besides, MER signals are important source for studying extracellular neuronal activity and DBS biomarkers, such as, spike clustering and sorting. However, MER signals are prone to several artifacts derived from electrical equipment in the operating room, electrode movement and patient activities, etc., which reduce the signal-to-noise ratio of the MER signals. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a novel deep learning architecture based on long short-term memory (LSTM) network for automatic artifact detection in MER signals. Frequency and time-domain features were extracted from the raw MER signals and fed to the deep LSTM network. A manually annotated MER database obtained from 17 Parkinson's disease (PD) patients were used to validate the proposed architecture. The proposed architecture achieved promising results of 97.49% accuracy, 98.21% sensitivity and 96.87% specificity on an unseen test set. To our best knowledge, this is the first study to use LSTM network for artifacts detection in MER signals. The MER data will be available at http://homepage.hit.edu.cn/wpgao .
