چکیده

Identifying the functional roles of elements in a neural network is one of the first challenges in understanding neural information processing. Aiming at this goal, lesion studies have been used in neuroscience, most of them employing single lesions and hence limited in their ability to reveal the significance of interacting elements. This paper presents the Multi-lesion Shapley value Analysis (MSA), an axiomatic, scalable and rigorous method addressing the challenge of calculating the contributions of network elements from a multi-lesion data set. The successful workings of the MSA are demonstrated in artificial systems as well as for biological data on deactivation studies of spatial attention in cats. The MSA successfully identifies the functional interactions characterizing the “paradoxical” effects previously reported in the literature, and points to new candidate cortical regions that may play a part in spatial attentional processing. MSA is a novel method for causal function localization, with a wide range of potential applications for the analysis of reversible deactivation experiments and TMS-induced “virtual lesions”. Multi-lesioning studies are to become a bare necessity; the MSA, being a harbinger of this new kind of studies, offers a novel and rigorous way for making sense of them.

Improving LNMF Performance of Facial Expression Recognition via Significant Parts Extraction using Shapley Value

Nonnegative Matrix Factorization (NMF) algorithms have been utilized in a wide range of real applications. NMF is done by several researchers to its part based representation property especially in the facial expression recognition problem. It decomposes a face image into its essential parts (e.g. nose, lips, etc.) but in all previous attempts, it is neglected that all features achieved by NMF ...

finding influential individual in Social Network graphs using CSCS algorithm and shapley value in game theory

In recent years, the social networks analysis gains great deal of attention. Social networks have various applications in different areas namely predicting disease epidemic, search engines and viral advertisements. A key property of social networks is that interpersonal relationships can influence the decisions that they make. Finding the most influential nodes is important in social networks b...

A TRANSITION FROM TWO-PERSON ZERO-SUM GAMES TO COOPERATIVE GAMES WITH FUZZY PAYOFFS

In this paper, we deal with games with fuzzy payoffs. We proved that players who are playing a zero-sum game with fuzzy payoffs against Nature are able to increase their joint payoff, and hence their individual payoffs by cooperating. It is shown that, a cooperative game with the fuzzy characteristic function can be constructed via the optimal game values of the zero-sum games with fuzzy payoff...

COALITIONAL GAME WITH FUZZY PAYOFFS AND CREDIBILISTIC SHAPLEY VALUE

Coalitional game deals with situations that involve cooperations among players, and there are different solution concepts such as the core,the Shapley value and the kernel. In many situations, there is no way to predict the payoff functions except for the expert experiencesand subjective intuitions, which leads to the coalitional game with fuzzy payoffs. Within the framework of credibility theo...

Fair Attribution of Functional Contribution in Artificial and Biological Networks

This letter presents the multi-perturbation Shapley value analysis (MSA), an axiomatic, scalable, and rigorous method for deducing causal function localization from multiple perturbations data. The MSA, based on fundamental concepts from game theory, accurately quantifies the contributions of network elements and their interactions, overcoming several shortcomings of previous function localizat...
