Abstract

Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) is the popular technique where it is possible to capture neural activity in brain regions when subjected to different stimuli. However, due to fMRI datasets' high dimensional and sparse nature, the best features' selection plays an essential role in providing the best classification accuracy in fMRI models. This paper selects the stable feature set from the fMRI dataset using hybrid Fast Fourier Transform with Particle Swarm Optimization and Genetic Algorithm (FFTPSOGA). Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) is used on the extracted features by PSO-GA to convert the magnitude of features into phase values for better performance. Next, the machine learning algorithms of GaussianNB, Support Vector Machine (SVM), and XGboost has been trained based on these extracted features of six subjects of the dataset. The experimental analysis reveals that the proposed algorithm resulted in optimum features that helped extract informative Regions of Interest (ROI) with better classification accuracy. Our implemented algorithm FFTPSOGA extracted the best voxels in six subjects of the dataset by selecting minimum ROIs with a model classification accuracy of 0.98, 0.95, 0.95, 0.95, 0.97, and 0.96 for the SVM classifier. Comparison of the proposed scheme with state-of-the-art techniques show that our algorithm resulted in best voxels and outperformed work in [1, 9, 25] by achieving higher accuracy of 98% and low computational costs with only 127 number of features. Due to its better performance, we believe that it can be used for the pattern identification of brain responses in multi-subject fMRI data.
