Popis: |
Nowadays, high amounts of data can be acquired in various applications, spurring the need for interpretable data representations that provide actionable insights. Algorithms that yield such representations ideally require as little a priori knowledge about the data or corresponding annotations as possible. To this end, we here investigate the use of Kohonen's Self-Organizing Map (SOM) in combination with data-driven low-dimensional embeddings obtained through self-supervised Contrastive Predictive Coding. We compare our approach to embeddings found with an auto-encoder and, moreover, investigate three ways to deal with node selection during SOM optimization. As a challenging experiment we analyze nocturnal sleep recordings of healthy subjects, and conclude that - for this noisy real-life data - contrastive learning yields a better low-dimensional embedding for the purpose of SOM training, compared to an auto-encoder. In addition, we show that a stochastic temperature-annealed SOM-training outperforms both a deterministic and a non-temperature-annealed stochastic approach. Clinical relevance - The hypnogram has for decades been the clinical standard in sleep medicine despite the fact that it is a highly simplified representation of a polysomnography recording. We propose a sensor-agnostic algorithm that is able to reveal more intricate patterns in sleep recordings which might teach us about sleep structure and sleep disorders. |
