Electroencephalography (EEG) is one fundamental tool for functional brain imaging. EEG signals tend to be represented by a vector or a matrix to facilitate data processing and analysis with generally understood methodologies like time-series analysis, spectral analysis and matrix decomposition. Indeed, EEG signals are often naturally born with more than two modes of time and space, and they can be denoted by a multi-way array called as tensor. This review summarizes the current progress of tensor decomposition of EEG signals with three aspects. The first is about the existing modes and tensors of EEG signals. Second, two fundamental tensor decomposition models, canonical polyadic decomposition (CPD, it is also called parallel factor analysis-PARAFAC) and Tucker decomposition, are introduced and compared. Moreover, the applications of the two models for EEG signals are addressed. Particularly, the determination of the number of components for each mode is discussed. Finally, the N-way partial least square and higher-order partial least square are described for a potential trend to process and analyze brain signals of two modalities simultaneously.
Recently, object trackers based on Siamese networks have attracted considerable attentions due to their remarkable tracking performance and widespread application. Especially, the anchor-based methods exploit the region proposal subnetwork to get accurate prediction of a target and make great performance improvement. However, those trackers cannot capture the spatial information very well and the pre-defined anchors will hinder robustness. To solve these problems, we propose a Siamese-based anchor-free object tracking algorithm with multiscale spatial attentions in this paper. Firstly, we take ResNet-50 as the backbone network to generate multiscale features of both template patch and search regions. Secondly, we propose the spatial attention extraction (SAE) block to capture the spatial information among all positions in the template and search region feature maps. Thirdly, we put these features into the SAE block to get the multiscale spatial attentions. Finally, an anchor-free classification and regression subnetwork is used for predicting the location of the target. Unlike anchor-based methods, our tracker directly predicts the target position without predefined parameters. Extensive experiments with state-of-the-art trackers are carried out on four challenging visual object tracking benchmarks: OTB100, UAV123, VOT2016 and GOT-10k. Those experimental results confirm the effectiveness of our proposed tracker.
