Abstract
BACKGROUND Investigating the functional interactions between different brain regions and revealing the transmission of information by computing brain connectivity have great potential and significance in the diagnosis of early Mild Cognitive Impairment (EMCI). METHODS The Granger causality with Gate Recurrent Unit (GRU_GC) model is a suitable method that allows the detection of a nonlinear causal relationship and solves the limitation of fixed time lag, which cannot be detected by the classical Granger method. The model can transmit time series signals with any transmission delay length, and the time series can be screened and learned through the gate model. RESULTS The classification experiment of 89 EMCI and 73 neurologically healthy controls (HC) shows that the accuracy reached 87.88%. Compared with multivariate variables GC (MVGC) and Long Short-Term Memory-based GC (LSTM_GC), the GRU_GC significantly improved the estimation of brain connectivity communication. Constructing a difference network to explore the brain effective connectivity between EMCI and HC. CONCLUSIONS The GRU_GC can discover the abnormal brain regions, including the parahippocampal gyrus, the posterior cingulate gyrus. The method can be used in clinical applications as an effective brain connectivity analysis tool and provides auxiliary means for the medical diagnosis of EMCI.

Abstract
Electroencephalography is a method of detecting and analyzing electrical activity in the brain. This electrical activity can be recorded and processed to aid in the clinical diagnosis of mental disorders. In this study, a novel system for classifying schizophrenia patients from EEG recordings is presented. The developed algorithm decomposes the EEG signals into a system of radial basis functions using the method of fuzzy means. This decomposition helps to obtain the information from the various electrodes of the EEG and allows separating between healthy controls and patients with schizophrenia. The proposed method has been compared with classical machine learning algorithms, such as, K-Nearest Neighbor, Adaboost, Support Vector Machine, and Bayesian Linear Discriminant Analysis. The results show that the proposed method obtains the highest values in terms of balanced accuracy, recall, precision and F1 score, close to 93 % in all cases. The model developed in this study can be implemented in brain activity analysis systems that help in the prediction of patients with schizophrenia.

Abstract
Most Granger causality analysis (GCA) methods still remain a two-stage scheme guided by different mathematical theories; both can actually be viewed as the same generalized model selection issues. Adhering to Occam's razor, we present a unified GCA (uGCA) based on the minimum description length principle. In this research, considering the common existence of nonlinearity in functional brain networks, we incorporated the nonlinear modeling procedure into the proposed uGCA method, in which an approximate representation of Taylor's expansion was adopted. Through synthetic data experiments, we revealed that nonlinear uGCA was obviously superior to its linear representation and the conventional GCA. Meanwhile, the nonlinear characteristics of high-order terms and cross-terms would be successively drowned out as noise levels increased. Then, in real fMRI data involving mental arithmetic tasks, we further illustrated that these nonlinear characteristics in fMRI data may indeed be drowned out at a high noise level, and hence a linear causal analysis procedure may be sufficient. Next, involving autism spectrum disorder patients data, compared with conventional GCA, the network property of causal connections obtained by uGCA methods appeared to be more consistent with clinical symptoms.

Abstract
Brain diseases, including neurodegenerative diseases and neuropsychiatric diseases, have long plagued the lives of the affected populations and caused a huge burden on public health. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is an excellent neuroimaging technology for measuring brain activity, which provides new insight for clinicians to help diagnose brain diseases. In recent years, machine learning methods have displayed superior performance in diagnosing brain diseases compared to conventional methods, attracting great attention from researchers. This paper reviews the representative research of machine learning methods in brain disease diagnosis based on fMRI data in the recent three years, focusing on the most frequent four active brain disease studies, including Alzheimer's disease/mild cognitive impairment, autism spectrum disorders, schizophrenia, and Parkinson's disease. We summarize these 55 articles from multiple perspectives, including the effect of the size of subjects, extracted features, feature selection methods, classification models, validation methods, and corresponding accuracies. Finally, we analyze these articles and introduce future research directions to provide neuroimaging scientists and researchers in the interdisciplinary fields of computing and medicine with new ideas for AI-aided brain disease diagnosis.

A Design of CGK-Based Granular Model Using Hierarchical Structure. APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL 2022. [DOI: 10.3390/app12063154] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
In this paper, we propose context-based GK clustering and design a CGK-based granular model and a hierarchical CGK-based granular model. Existing fuzzy clustering generates clusters using Euclidean distances. However, there is a problem in that performance decreases when a cluster is created from data with strong nonlinearity. To improve this problem, GK clustering is used. GK clustering creates clusters using Mahalanobis distance. In this paper, we propose context-based GK (CGK) clustering, which adds a method that considers the output space in the existing GK clustering, to create a cluster that considers not only the input space but also the output space. there is. Based on the proposed CGK clustering, a CGK-based granular model and a hierarchical CGK-based granular model were designed. Since the output of the CGK-based granular model is in the form of a context, it has the advantage of verbally expressing the prediction result, and the CGK-based granular model with a hierarchical structure can generate high-dimensional information granules, so meaningful information with high abstraction value granules can be created. In order to verify the validity of the method proposed in this paper, as a result of conducting an experiment using the concrete compressive strength database, it was confirmed that the proposed methods showed superior performance than the existing granular models.

Abstract
Internet public opinion is affected by many factors corresponding to insufficient data in the very short period, especially for emergency events related to the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). To effectively support real-time analysis and accurate prediction, this paper proposes an early warning scheme, which comprehensively considers the multiple factors of Internet public opinion and the dynamic characteristics of burst events. A hybrid relevance vector machine and logistic regression (RVM-L) model is proposed that incorporates multivariate analysis, which adopts Lagrange interpolation to fill in the gaps and improve the forecasting effect based on insufficient data for COVID-19-related events. In addition, a novel metric critical interval is introduced to improve the early warning performance. Detailed experiments show that compared with existing schemes, the proposed RVM-L-based early warning scheme can achieve the prediction accuracy up to 96%, and the intervention within the critical interval can reduce the number of public opinions by 60%.
