Tran QT, Alom MZ, Orr BA. Comprehensive study of semi-supervised learning for DNA methylation-based supervised classification of central nervous system tumors. BMC Bioinformatics 2022; 23:223.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Precision medicine for cancer treatment relies on an accurate pathological diagnosis. The number of known tumor classes has increased rapidly, and reliance on traditional methods of histopathologic classification alone has become unfeasible. To help reduce variability, validation costs, and standardize the histopathological diagnostic process, supervised machine learning models using DNA-methylation data have been developed for tumor classification. These methods require large labeled training data sets to obtain clinically acceptable classification accuracy. While there is abundant unlabeled epigenetic data across multiple databases, labeling pathology data for machine learning models is time-consuming and resource-intensive, especially for rare tumor types. Semi-supervised learning (SSL) approaches have been used to maximize the utility of labeled and unlabeled data for classification tasks and are effectively applied in genomics. SSL methods have not yet been explored with epigenetic data nor demonstrated beneficial to central nervous system (CNS) tumor classification. RESULTS This paper explores the application of semi-supervised machine learning on methylation data to improve the accuracy of supervised learning models in classifying CNS tumors. We comprehensively evaluated 11 SSL methods and developed a novel combination approach that included a self-training with editing using support vector machine (SETRED-SVM) model and an L2-penalized, multinomial logistic regression model to obtain high confidence labels from a few labeled instances. Results across eight random forest and neural net models show that the pseudo-labels derived from our SSL method can significantly increase prediction accuracy for 82 CNS tumors and 9 normal controls. CONCLUSIONS The proposed combination of semi-supervised technique and multinomial logistic regression holds the potential to leverage the abundant publicly available unlabeled methylation data effectively. Such an approach is highly beneficial in providing additional training examples, especially for scarce tumor types, to boost the prediction accuracy of supervised models.

Abstract
Disease diagnosis methods based on deep learning have some shortcomings in the auxiliary diagnosis process, such as relying heavily on labeled data and lack of doctor or expert experience knowledge. Based on the above background, this study proposes a disease diagnosis method combining
medical knowledge atlas and deep learning (CKGDL). The core of the method is a knowledge-driven convolutional neural network (CNN) model. The structured disease knowledge in the medical knowledge map is obtained through entity link disambiguation and knowledge map embedding and extraction.
The disease feature word vector and the corresponding knowledge entity vector in the disease description text are used as the multi-channel input of CNN, and different types of diseases are expressed from the semantic and knowledge levels in the convolution process. Through training and testing
on multiple types of disease description text data sets, the experimental results show that the diagnostic performance of this method is better than that of a single CNN model and other disease diagnosis methods. And further verified that this method of joint training of knowledge and data
is more suitable for the initial diagnosis of the disease.

Abstract
In the new media era, there are more ways of information dissemination, and the speed of information dissemination becomes faster. Along with it, various public opinions and rumors flood the cyberspace. As a mainstream social media information publishing platform, microblog has become
the main way for netizens to obtain, disseminate and publish information. Because microblog can freely make speeches, and has a fast transmission speed and a wide range, it is easy for public opinion information to be widely disseminated in a short time. In particular, information such as
rumors in public opinion can affect the network environment and social stability. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze and predict public opinion changes and to provide early warning. The literature uses the classic BP-NN (BP-NN) as the base prediction model, and uses the information published
on the Sina microblog platform as a sample to analyze and predict the public opinion of influenza diseases. Due to the BP-NN’ slow convergence speed, this paper introduces an improved genetic algorithm to select the optimal parameters in the BP-NN (IGA-BP-NN), shorten the calculation
time, and improve the analysis and prediction efficiency. The experiments verify that the work in this paper can provide more accurate early-warning information for the public opinion management of related departments.

Abstract
The early detection of cardiovascular diseases based on electrocardiogram (ECG) is very important for the timely treatment of cardiovascular patients, which increases the survival rate of patients. ECG is a visual representation that describes changes in cardiac bioelectricity and is
the basis for detecting heart health. With the rise of edge machine learning and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, small machine learning models have received attention. This study proposes an ECG automatic classification method based on Internet of Things technology and LSTM network
to achieve early monitoring and early prevention of cardiovascular diseases. Specifically, this paper first proposes a single-layer bidirectional LSTM network structure. Make full use of the timing-dependent features of the sampling points before and after to automatically extract features.
The network structure is more lightweight and the calculation complexity is lower. In order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed classification model, the relevant comparison algorithm is used to verify on the MIT-BIH public data set. Secondly, the model is embedded in a wearable device
to automatically classify the collected ECG. Finally, when an abnormality is detected, the user is alerted by an alarm. The experimental results show that the proposed model has a simple structure and a high classification and recognition rate, which can meet the needs of wearable devices
for monitoring ECG of patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In recent years, with the acceleration of life rhythm and increased pressure, the problem of sleep disorders has become more and more serious. It affects people's quality of life and reduces work efficiency, so the monitoring and evaluation of sleep quality is of great significance. Sleep staging has an important reference value in sleep quality assessment. This article starts with the study of sleep staging to detect and analyze sleep quality. For the purpose of sleep quality detection, this article proposes a sleep quality detection method based on electroencephalography (EEG) signals. MATERIALS AND METHODS This method first preprocesses the EEG signals and then uses the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) for feature extraction. Finally, the transfer support vector machine (TSVM) algorithm is used to classify the feature data. RESULTS The proposed algorithm was tested using 60 pieces of data from the National Sleep Research Resource Library of the United States, and sleep quality was evaluated using three indicators: sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy. Experimental results show that the classification performance of the TSVM classifier is significantly higher than those of other comparison algorithms. This further validated the effectiveness of the proposed sleep quality detection method.

Abstract
This article explores the application and value of CT angiography in the diagnosis of acute cerebrovascular disease in neurology. We selected 260 patients in our hospital as the research object, analyzed their data in detail, and then used the spiral CT scan to obtain the most original
image. According to the projection technology with the strongest intensity and the scanned image, a three-dimensional image was formed on the surface. The images were studied and the results were compared with the results of postoperative and DSA techniques to finally evaluate the value of
CTA technology in the diagnosis of cerebrovascular diseases. A retrospective analysis and study of angiographic results of 260 patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease who underwent digital silhouette angiography (DSA). According to the age of patients, patients can be divided into three
groups: young group, middle-aged group and elderly group, aged 18–45 years old, 45–60 years old, 60 years old or older. According to the classification of ischemic cerebrovascular disease, we can divide 260 patients into cerebral infarction group and transient ischemic attack group.
The calculation of stenosis rate is based on the research methods of symptomatic carotid endarterectomy abroad. The rate of detection of stenoses in 8 patients with TIA was 87%, and the rate of detection in 30 patients with cerebral infarction was 96%. The rate of aneurysms detected in the
diagnosis of SAH is 83%. The diagnosis of cerebrovascular disease in the etiology and treatment of CTA in neurology department has a statistically significant difference in the ratio of confirmed diagnosis and positive rate of protection (P >0.05). Finally, we conclude that CT angiography
is widely used in the diagnosis of acute cerebrovascular disease in neurology, and its therapeutic effect is quite significant, which is worthy of promotion in clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
At present, the demand for intelligentization of human-computer interaction systems (HCIS) has become increasingly prominent. Being able to recognize the emotions of users of interactive systems is a distinguishing feature of intelligent interactive systems. The intelligent HCIS can
analyze the emotional changes of patients with depression, complete the interaction with the patients in a more appropriate manner, and the recognition results can assist family members or medical personnel to make response measures based on the patient’s emotional changes. Based on
this background, this paper proposes a sentiment recognition method based on transfer support vector machines (TSVM) and EEG signals. The ER (ER) results based on this method are applied to HCIS. Such a HCIS is mainly used for the interaction of patients with depression. When a new field related
to a certain field appears, if the new field data is relabeled, the sample is expensive, and it is very wasteful to discard all the old field data. The main innovation of this research is that the introduced classification model is TSVM. TSVM is a transfer learning strategy based on SVM. Transfer
learning aims to solve related but different target domain problems by using a large amount of labeled source domain data. Therefore, the transfer support vector machine based on the transfer mechanism can use the small labeled data of the target domain and a large amount of old data in the
related domain to build a high-quality classification model for the target domain, which can effectively improve the accuracy of classification. Comparing the classification results with other classification models, it can be concluded that TSVM can effectively improve the accuracy of ER in
patients with depression. The HCIS based on the classification model has higher accuracy and better stability.

Abstract
(Aim) Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women and the second most common cancer worldwide. With the rapid advancement of deep learning, the early stages of breast cancer development can be accurately detected by radiologists with the help of artificial intelligence systems. (Method) Based on mammographic imaging, a mainstream clinical breast screening technique, we present a diagnostic system for accurate classification of breast abnormalities based on ResNet-50. To improve the proposed model, we created a new data augmentation framework called SCDA (Scaling and Contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization Data Augmentation). In its procedure, we first conduct the scaling operation to the original training set, followed by applying contrast limited adaptive histogram equalisation (CLAHE) to the scaled training set. By stacking the training set after SCDA with the original training set, we formed a new training set. The network trained by the augmented training set, was coined as ResNet-SCDA-50. Our system, which aims at a binary classification on mammographic images acquired from INbreast and MINI-MIAS, classifies masses, microcalcification as "abnormal", while normal regions are classified as "normal". (Results) We present the first attempt to use the image contrast enhancement method as the data augmentation method, resulting in an averaged 98.55 percent specificity and 92.83 percent sensitivity, which gives our best model an overall accuracy of 95.74 percent. (Conclusion) Our proposed method is effective in classifying breast abnormality.

Abstract
Computed tomography (CT) provides information for diagnosis, PET attenuation correction (AC), and radiation treatment planning (RTP). Disadvantages of CT include poor soft tissue contrast and exposure to ionizing radiation. While MRI can overcome these disadvantages, it lacks the photon absorption information needed for PET AC and RTP. Thus, an intelligent transformation from MR to CT, i.e., the MR-based synthetic CT generation, is of great interest as it would support PET/MR AC and MR-only RTP. Using an MR pulse sequence that combines ultra-short echo time (UTE) and modified Dixon (mDixon), we propose a novel method for synthetic CT generation jointly leveraging prior knowledge as well as partial supervision (SCT-PK-PS for short) on large-field-of-view images that span abdomen and pelvis. Two key machine learning techniques, i.e., the knowledge-leveraged transfer fuzzy c-means (KL-TFCM) and the Laplacian support vector machine (LapSVM), are used in SCT-PK-PS. The significance of our effort is threefold: 1) Using the prior knowledge-referenced KL-TFCM clustering, SCT-PK-PS is able to group the feature data of MR images into five initial clusters of fat, soft tissue, air, bone, and bone marrow. Via these initial partitions, clusters needing to be refined are observed and for each of them a few additionally labeled examples are given as the partial supervision for the subsequent semi-supervised classification using LapSVM; 2) Partial supervision is usually insufficient for conventional algorithms to learn the insightful classifier. Instead, exploiting not only the given supervision but also the manifold structure embedded primarily in numerous unlabeled data, LapSVM is capable of training multiple desired tissue-recognizers; 3) Benefiting from the joint use of KL-TFCM and LapSVM, and assisted by the edge detector filter based feature extraction, the proposed SCT-PK-PS method features good recognition accuracy of tissue types, which ultimately facilitates the good transformation from MR images to CT images of the abdomen-pelvis. Applying the method on twenty subjects' feature data of UTE-mDixon MR images, the average score of the mean absolute prediction deviation (MAPD) of all subjects is 140.72 ± 30.60 HU which is statistically significantly better than the 241.36 ± 21.79 HU obtained using the all-water method, the 262.77 ± 42.22 HU obtained using the four-cluster-partitioning (FCP, i.e., external-air, internal-air, fat, and soft tissue) method, and the 197.05 ± 76.53 HU obtained via the conventional SVM method. These results demonstrate the effectiveness of our method for the intelligent transformation from MR to CT on the body section of abdomen-pelvis.

Abstract
The automatic detection of epilepsy is essentially the classification of EEG signals of seizures and nonseizures, and its purpose is to distinguish the different characteristics of seizure brain electrical signals and normal brain electrical signals. In order to improve the effect of automatic detection, this study proposes a new classification method based on unsupervised multiview clustering results. In addition, considering the high-dimensional characteristics of the original data samples, a deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) is introduced to extract the sample features to obtain deep features. The deep feature reduces the sample dimension and increases the sample separability. The main steps of our proposed novel EEG detection method contain the following three steps: first, a multiview FCM clustering algorithm is introduced, and the training samples are used to train the center and weight of each view. Then, the class center and weight of each view obtained by training are used to calculate the view-weighted membership value of the new prediction sample. Finally, the classification label of the new prediction sample is obtained. Experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively detect seizures.

Abstract
In recent years, with the acceleration of the aging process and the aggravation of life pressure, the proportion of chronic epidemics has gradually increased. A large amount of medical data will be generated during the hospitalization of diabetics. It will have important practical significance and social value to discover potential medical laws and valuable information among medical data. In view of this, an improved deep convolutional neural network (“CNN+” for short) algorithm was proposed to predict the changes of diabetes. Firstly, the bagging integrated classification algorithm was used instead of the output layer function of the deep CNN, which can help the improved deep CNN algorithm constructed for the data set of diabetic patients and improve the accuracy of classification. In this way, the “CNN+” algorithm can take the advantages of both the deep CNN and the bagging algorithm. On the one hand, it can extract the potential features of the data set by using the powerful feature extraction ability of deep CNN. On the other hand, the bagging integrated classification algorithm can be used for feature classification, so as to improve the classification accuracy and obtain better disease prediction effect to assist doctors in diagnosis and treatment. Experimental results show that compared with the traditional convolutional neural network and other classification algorithm, the “CNN+” model can get more reliable prediction results.

Abstract
Among the currently proposed brain segmentation methods, brain tumor segmentation methods based on traditional image processing and machine learning are not ideal enough. Therefore, deep learning-based brain segmentation methods are widely used. In the brain tumor segmentation method based on deep learning, the convolutional network model has a good brain segmentation effect. The deep convolutional network model has the problems of a large number of parameters and large loss of information in the encoding and decoding process. This paper proposes a deep convolutional neural network fusion support vector machine algorithm (DCNN-F-SVM). The proposed brain tumor segmentation model is mainly divided into three stages. In the first stage, a deep convolutional neural network is trained to learn the mapping from image space to tumor marker space. In the second stage, the predicted labels obtained from the deep convolutional neural network training are input into the integrated support vector machine classifier together with the test images. In the third stage, a deep convolutional neural network and an integrated support vector machine are connected in series to train a deep classifier. Run each model on the BraTS dataset and the self-made dataset to segment brain tumors. The segmentation results show that the performance of the proposed model is significantly better than the deep convolutional neural network and the integrated SVM classifier.

Abstract
Support vector machines are supervised learning models which are capable of classifying data and measuring regression by means of a learning algorithm. If data are linearly separable, a conventional linear kernel is used to classify them. Otherwise, the data are normally first transformed from input space to feature space, and then they are classified. However, carrying out this transformation is not always practical, and the process itself increases the cost of training and prediction. To address these problems, this paper puts forward an SVM kernel, called polygonal fuzzy weighted or PFW, which effectively classifies data without space transformation, even if the groups in question are not linearly separable and have overlapping areas. This kernel is based on Gaussian data distribution, standard deviation, the three-sigma rule and a polygonal fuzzy membership function. A comparison of our PFW, radial basis function (RBF) and conventional linear kernels in identical experimental conditions shows that PFW produces a minimum of 26% higher classification accuracy compared with the linear kernel, and it outperforms the RBF kernel in two-thirds of class labels, by a minimum of 3%. Moreover, Since PFW runs within the original feature space, it involves no additional computational cost.

Abstract
We propose a new method for generating synthetic CT images from modified Dixon (mDixon) MR data. The synthetic CT is used for attenuation correction (AC) when reconstructing PET data on abdomen and pelvis. While MR does not intrinsically contain any information about photon attenuation, AC is needed in PET/MR systems in order to be quantitatively accurate and to meet qualification standards required for use in many multi-center trials. Existing MR-based synthetic CT generation methods either use advanced MR sequences that have long acquisition time and limited clinical availability or use matching of the MR images from a newly scanned subject to images in a library of MR-CT pairs which has difficulty in accounting for the diversity of human anatomy especially in patients that have pathologies. To address these deficiencies, we present a five-phase interlinked method that uses mDixon MR acquisition and advanced machine learning methods for synthetic CT generation. Both transfer fuzzy clustering and active learning-based classification (TFC-ALC) are used. The significance of our efforts is fourfold: 1) TFC-ALC is capable of better synthetic CT generation than methods currently in use on the challenging abdomen using only common Dixon-based scanning. 2) TFC partitions MR voxels initially into the four groups regarding fat, bone, air, and soft tissue via transfer learning; ALC can learn insightful classifiers, using as few but informative labeled examples as possible to precisely distinguish bone, air, and soft tissue. Combining them, the TFC-ALC method successfully overcomes the inherent imperfection and potential uncertainty regarding the co-registration between CT and MR images. 3) Compared with existing methods, TFC-ALC features not only preferable synthetic CT generation but also improved parameter robustness, which facilitates its clinical practicability. Applying the proposed approach on mDixon-MR data from ten subjects, the average score of the mean absolute prediction deviation (MAPD) was 89.78±8.76 which is significantly better than the 133.17±9.67 obtained using the all-water (AW) method (p=4.11E-9) and the 104.97±10.03 obtained using the four-cluster-partitioning (FCP, i.e., external-air, internal-air, fat, and soft tissue) method (p=0.002). 4) Experiments in the PET SUV errors of these approaches show that TFC-ALC achieves the highest SUV accuracy and can generally reduce the SUV errors to 5% or less. These experimental results distinctively demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed TFCALC method for the synthetic CT generation on abdomen and pelvis using only the commonly-available Dixon pulse sequence.

Improved Transductive Support Vector Machine for a Small Labelled Set in Motor Imagery-Based Brain-Computer Interface. COMPUTATIONAL INTELLIGENCE AND NEUROSCIENCE 2019; 2019:2087132. [PMID: 31885530 PMCID: PMC6925734 DOI: 10.1155/2019/2087132] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2019] [Revised: 09/20/2019] [Accepted: 10/10/2019] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
Long and tedious calibration time hinders the development of motor imagery- (MI-) based brain-computer interface (BCI). To tackle this problem, we use a limited labelled set and a relatively large unlabelled set from the same subject for training based on the transductive support vector machine (TSVM) framework. We first introduce an improved TSVM (ITSVM) method, in which a comprehensive feature of each sample consists of its common spatial patterns (CSP) feature and its geometric feature. Moreover, we use the concave-convex procedure (CCCP) to solve the optimization problem of TSVM under a new balancing constraint that can address the unknown distribution of the unlabelled set by considering various possible distributions. In addition, we propose an improved self-training TSVM (IST-TSVM) method that can iteratively perform CSP feature extraction and ITSVM classification using an expanded labelled set. Extensive experimental results on dataset IV-a from BCI competition III and dataset II-a from BCI competition IV show that our algorithms outperform the other competing algorithms, where the sizes and distributions of the labelled sets are variable. In particular, IST-TSVM provides average accuracies of 63.25% and 69.43% with the abovementioned two datasets, respectively, where only four positive labelled samples and sixteen negative labelled samples are used. Therefore, our algorithms can provide an alternative way to reduce the calibration time.

Abstract
Intelligent medical diagnosis and computing system faces many challenges in complex object recognition, large-scale data imaging and real-time diagnosis, such as poor real-time computing, low efficiency of data storage and low recognition rate of lesions. In order to solve the above problems, this paper proposes a medical intelligent computing system and a series of algorithms for the clinical pathology of cervical cancer based on the multi-scale imaging and transfer learning framework. Firstly, based on data dimensions, imaging errors and other factors, this paper designs a multi-scale time-sharing elastic imaging algorithm based on image reconstruction time and data sample characteristics. Then, taking the burst imaging cohort and the calculation data set of new cervical cancer cases as the objects, based on the difficulties of cervical cancer feature modeling, this paper proposes the transfer learning algorithm of clinical and pathological features of cervical cancer. Finally, a medical intelligent computing system for cervical cancer pathology analysis and calculation with high efficiency and reliability is established. A series of proposed algorithms are compared with single-scale Retinex (SSR), which is based on single-scale Retinex migration learning (SSR-TL). The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm in cervical cancer pathological imaging and scoring, as well as the feature extraction and recognition of lesions, especially the efficiency of system execution, is obviously due to the comparison algorithm.

Abstract
The traditional texture feature lacks the directional analysis of graphical element, so it could not better distinguish the thyroid nodule texture image formed by the rotation of graphical element. A non-quantifiable local feature is adopted in this paper to design a robust texture descriptor so as to enhance the robustness of the texture classification in the rotation and scale changes, which can improve the diagnostic accuracy of thyroid nodules in ultrasound images. First of all, the concept of local feature with rotational symmetry is introduced. It is found that many rotation invariant local features are rotational symmetric to a certain degree. Therefore, we propose a novel local feature to describe the rotation invariant properties of the texture. In order to deal with the change of rotation and scale of ultrasound thyroid nodules in image, Pairwise rotation-invariant spatial context feature is adopted to analyze the texture feature, which can combine with the scale information without increasing the dimension of the local feature. The fadopted local features have strong robustness to rotation and gray intensity variation. The experimental results show that our proposed method outperforms the existing algorithms on thyroid ultrasound data sets, which greatly improve the Diagnosis accuracy of thyroid nodules.

Abstract
The use of artificial intelligence in medicine is currently an issue of great interest, especially with regard to the diagnostic or predictive analysis of medical data. In order to achieve the regional medical and public health data analysis through artificial intelligence technologies, spark data analysis is adopted as the research platform for hypertension patients, and artificial intelligence technologies are used to preprocess the data with inconsistency, redundancy, incompleteness, noise and error; Aiming at the unbalanced data sets, the Z-score standard is adopted to convert data into usable form suitable for data mining. And, the application of Logistic, Naive Bayesian regression, and support vector machine based on three groups of different prognosis in severe cases, including stroke, heart failure and renal failure symptoms, establish the risk early warning model for 3 years time. In addition, to select the optimal feature subset based on medicine big-data features, the model simplification and optimization are done in training process, the experimental results show that the feature subset selection can ensure the classification performance similar to the clinical features of the model. Therefore, according to chronic cardiovascular disease, acute cardiovascular events and cardiovascular events caused by critical illness events, we screen out the relevant prognosis of serious illness (stroke, heart failure, renal failure), which is related to the prognosis of serious illness. Targeted prevention has a guiding role and practical significance according to the results of artificial intelligence analysis.
