Abstract
Precise feedback assures precise control commands especially for assistive or rehabilitation devices. Biofeedback systems integrated with assistive or rehabilitative robotic exoskeletons tend to increase its performance and effectiveness. Therefore, there has been plenty of research in the field of biofeedback covering different aspects such as signal acquisition, conditioning, feature extraction and integration with the control system. Among several types of biofeedback systems, Force myography (FMG) technique is a promising one in terms of affordability, high classification accuracies, ease to use, and low computational cost. Compared to traditional biofeedback systems such as electromyography (EMG) which offers some invasive techniques, FMG offers a completely non-invasive solution with much less effort for preprocessing with high accuracies. This work covers the whole aspects of FMG technique in terms of signal acquisition, feature extraction, signal processing, developing the machine learning model, evaluating tools for the performance of the model. Stating the difference between real-time and offline assessment, also highlighting the main uncovered points for further study, and thus enhancing the development of this technique.

[PMID: 38153271 DOI: 10.1093/jb/mvad116] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2023] [Revised: 12/10/2023] [Accepted: 12/12/2023] [Indexed: 12/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Phosphorylation is the most important and studied post-translational modification (PTM), which plays a crucial role in protein function studies and experimental design. Many significant studies have been performed to predict phosphorylation sites using various machine-learning methods. Recently, several studies have claimed that deep learning-based methods are the best way to predict the phosphorylation sites because deep learning as an advanced machine learning method can automatically detect complex representations of phosphorylation patterns from raw sequences and thus offers a powerful tool to improve phosphorylation site prediction. In this study, we report DF-Phos, a new phosphosite predictor based on the Deep Forest to predict phosphorylation sites. In DF-Phos, the feature vector taken from the CkSAApair method is as input for a Deep Forest framework for predicting phosphorylation sites. The results of 10-fold cross-validation show that the Deep Forest method has the highest performance among other available methods. We implemented a Python program of DF-Phos, which is freely available for non-commercial use at https://github.com/zahiriz/DF-Phos Moreover, users can use it for various PTM predictions.

[PMID: 37929760 DOI: 10.1080/10255842.2023.2273203] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/03/2023] [Accepted: 10/14/2023] [Indexed: 11/07/2023]
Abstract
Blood Pressure (BP) is considered an essential factor that provides information regarding cardiovascular function. Regular monitoring of the BP is required for proper healthcare maintenance that avoids the high risk of life due to high and low BP. Several methods were devised for the estimation of BP, but the estimation accuracy is still a challenging task. Hence this research introduces an efficient BP estimation technique using the Fact Finding Instructor (FFI) based clustering method by considering the speech signal of the patients. An efficient BP extraction technique is introduced using the FFI Optimization algorithm an integration of the mannerism of the fact finder that identifies the suspect who commits the criminal offense and, with the instructor with good knowledge, these make the trainee more efficient. The detection and suspect's arrest contain two phases, the fact-finding phase and the chasing phase. Initially, the speech signal is collected from the database and pre-processed for removing noise and artifacts. Then feature extraction is used for the minimization of the computation overhead that generates a feature vector. The clustering of BP is employed with the k-means clustering algorithm and the proposed FFI optimization algorithm. The FFI Optimization algorithm provides a fast convergence rate due to the fact-finding phase and provides accurate detection of the suspect's location along with that the clustering of classes of patients' BP by considering the feature of the speech signal. The clusters formed using the FFI optimization algorithm are combined with the K-means clustering, by multiplying the clusters the BP estimation is implemented on three criteria Low BP, Normal, and, High BP. Finally, the output generated by both the clustering operations is multiplied together for the estimation of the BP. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated using the metrics like Davies Bouldin score, Homogeneity score, Completeness score, Jacquard Similarity score, Silhouette score, and Dunn's Index which acquired the improvement rate of 0.98, 0.96, 0.96, 0.98, 0.95, and 0.98 for training percentage 90, respectively to the existing Teaching Learning Based Optimization(TLBO) clustering technique.

Abstract
Nowadays, COVID severity prediction has attracted widely in medical research because of the disease severity. Hence, the image processing application is also utilized to analyze COVID severity identification using lungs X-ray images. Thus, several intelligent schemes were employed to detect the COVID-affected part of the lungs X-ray images. However, the traditional neural approaches reported less severity classification accuracy due to the image complexity score. So, the present study has presented a novel chimp-based Adaboost Severity Analysis (CbASA) implemented in the MATLAB environment. Hence, the lung's X-ray images are utilized to test the working performance of the designed model. All public imaging data sources contain more noisy features, so the noise features are removed in the initial hidden layer of the novel CbASA then the noise-free data is imported into the classification phase. Feature extraction, segmentation, and severity specification have been performed in the classification layer. Finally, the performance of the classification score has been measured and compared with other models. Subsequently, the presented novel CbASA has earned the finest classification outcome.

[PMID: 36437909 PMCID: PMC9676172 DOI: 10.1016/j.bspc.2022.104392] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2022] [Revised: 10/04/2022] [Accepted: 10/30/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
COVID-19 pandemic is the main outbreak in the world, which has shown a bad impact on people's lives in more than 150 countries. The major steps in fighting COVID-19 are identifying the affected patients as early as possible and locating them with special care. Images from radiology and radiography are among the most effective tools for determining a patient's ailment. Recent studies have shown detailed abnormalities of affected patients with COVID-19 in the chest radiograms. The purpose of this work is to present a COVID-19 detection system with three key steps: "(i) preprocessing, (ii) Feature extraction, (iii) Classification." Originally, the input image is given to the preprocessing step as its input, extracting the deep features and texture features from the preprocessed image. Particularly, it extracts the deep features by inceptionv3. Then, the features like proposed Local Vector Patterns (LVP) and Local Binary Pattern (LBP) are extracted from the preprocessed image. Moreover, the extracted features are subjected to the proposed ensemble model based classification phase, including Support Vector Machine (SVM), Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), Optimized Neural Network (NN), and Random Forest (RF). A novel Self Adaptive Kill Herd Optimization (SAKHO) approach is used to properly tune the weight of NN to improve classification accuracy and precision. The performance of the proposed method is then compared to the performance of the conventional approaches using a variety of metrics, including recall, FNR, MCC, FDR, Thread score, FPR, precision, FOR, accuracy, specificity, NPV, FMS, and sensitivity, accordingly.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE The fundamental matrix estimation is a classic problem in computer vision. The traditional algorithms require high-precision correspondences. However, correspondences in biplanar radiographs are difficult to match accurately. METHODS We propose an end-to-end network to estimate the F-Matrix directly from BR, which includes feature extraction and regression prediction. There is no publicly available dataset of biplanar radiographs. We produce the dataset in this paper to train and test the proposed network. Four metrics, Mean Square Error, Calculating R-squared, Square Value of Extreme Constraint, and Absolute Value of Extreme Constraint are used to measure the performance of the approaches. RESULTS The best Square Value of Extreme Constraint and Absolute Value of Extreme Constraint values we obtained on the datasets were 0.20 and 0.43, respectively. Compared with other methods, the estimation accuracy of FM-Net is improved by more than 53.53%. CONCLUSIONS The results of experiments demonstrate that the proposed network can estimate the fundamental matrix successfully. It outperforms the classical algorithms and other deep learning-based methods.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop a computerized diagnostic model to characterize the ovarian cyst at their early stage in order to avoid unnecessary biopsy and patient anxiety. BACKGROUND The main cause of mortality and infertility in women is Ovarian Cancer. It is very difficult to diagnose ovarian cancer using Ultrasonography as benign and malignant ovarian masses or cysts exhibit similar characteristics. Early prediction and characterization of ovarian masses will reduce the unwanted growth of the ovarian mass. MATERIALS AND METHODS Transvaginal 2D B mode ovarian mass ultrasound images were preprocessed initially to enhance the image quality. And then, region of interest(ROI) in this case ovarian cyst is segmented. Finally, Local Binary Pattern (LBP) textural features were extracted. A Support Vector Machine was trained to classify the ovarian cyst or mass as benign or malignant. RESULTS The performance of the SVM is improved with an average accuracy of 92% when the textural features were extracted from the Original Gray Value based LBP(OGV-LBP) image than the histogram based LBP. CONCLUSION The SVM can classify the transvaginal 2D B mode ovarian cyst ultrasound images into benign and malignant effectivelywhen the textural features from the original gray value based LBP extracted were considered.

Abstract
The newly identified Coronavirus pneumonia, subsequently termed COVID-19, is highly transmittable and pathogenic with no clinically approved antiviral drug or vaccine available for treatment. The most common symptoms of COVID-19 are dry cough, sore throat, and fever. Symptoms can progress to a severe form of pneumonia with critical complications, including septic shock, pulmonary edema, acute respiratory distress syndrome and multi-organ failure. While medical imaging is not currently recommended in Canada for primary diagnosis of COVID-19, computer-aided diagnosis systems could assist in the early detection of COVID-19 abnormalities and help to monitor the progression of the disease, potentially reduce mortality rates. In this study, we compare popular deep learning-based feature extraction frameworks for automatic COVID-19 classification. To obtain the most accurate feature, which is an essential component of learning, MobileNet, DenseNet, Xception, ResNet, InceptionV3, InceptionResNetV2, VGGNet, NASNet were chosen amongst a pool of deep convolutional neural networks. The extracted features were then fed into several machine learning classifiers to classify subjects as either a case of COVID-19 or a control. This approach avoided task-specific data pre-processing methods to support a better generalization ability for unseen data. The performance of the proposed method was validated on a publicly available COVID-19 dataset of chest X-ray and CT images. The DenseNet121 feature extractor with Bagging tree classifier achieved the best performance with 99% classification accuracy. The second-best learner was a hybrid of the a ResNet50 feature extractor trained by LightGBM with an accuracy of 98.

Abstract
Unsupervised Machine Learning (ML) is becoming increasingly popular for solving various types of data analytics problems including feature extraction, blind source separation, exploratory analyses, model diagnostics, etc. Here, we have developed a new unsupervised ML method based on Nonnegative Tensor Factorization (NTF) for identification of the original groundwater types (including contaminant sources) present in geochemical mixtures observed in an aquifer. Frequently, groundwater types with different geochemical signatures are related to different background and/or contamination sources. The characterization of groundwater mixing processes is a challenging but very important task critical for any environmental management project aiming to characterize the fate and transport of contaminants in the subsurface and perform contaminant remediation. This task typically requires solving complex inverse models representing groundwater flow and geochemical transport in the aquifer, where the inverse analysis accounts for available site data. Usually, the model is calibrated against the available data characterizing the spatial and temporal distribution of the observed geochemical types. Numerous different geochemical constituents and processes may need to be simulated in these models which further complicates the analyses. Additionally, the application of inverse methods may introduce biases in the analyses through the assumptions made in the model development process. Here, we substitute the model inversion with unsupervised ML analysis. The ML analysis does not make any assumptions about underlying physical and geochemical processes occurring in the aquifer. Our ML methodology, called NTFk, is capable of identifying (1) the unknown number of groundwater types (contaminant sources) present in the aquifer, (2) the original geochemical concentrations (signatures) of these groundwater types and (3) spatial and temporal dynamics in the mixing of these groundwater types. These results are obtained only from the measured geochemical data without any additional site information. In general, the NTFk methodology allows for interpretation of large high-dimensional datasets representing diverse spatial and temporal components such as state variables and velocities. NTFk has been tested on synthetic and real-world site three-dimensional datasets. The NTFk algorithm is designed to work with geochemical data represented in the form of concentrations, ratios (of two constituents; for example, isotope ratios), and delta notations (standard normalized stable isotope ratios).

Abstract
This paper describes a technology for predicting the aggravation of diabetic nephropathy from electronic health record (EHR). For the prediction, we used features extracted from event sequence of lab tests in EHR with a stacked convolutional autoencoder which can extract both local and global temporal information. The extracted features can be interpreted as similarities to a small number of typical sequences of lab tests, that may help us to understand the disease courses and to provide detailed health guidance. In our experiments on real-world EHRs, we confirmed that our approach performed better than baseline methods and that the extracted features were promising for understanding the disease.

Abstract
Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) is an emerging imaging modality for medical applications. HSI acquires two dimensional images at various wavelengths. The combination of both spectral and spatial information provides quantitative information for cancer detection and diagnosis. This paper proposes using superpixels, principal component analysis (PCA), and support vector machine (SVM) to distinguish regions of tumor from healthy tissue. The classification method uses 2 principal components decomposed from hyperspectral images and obtains an average sensitivity of 93% and an average specificity of 85% for 11 mice. The hyperspectral imaging technology and classification method can have various applications in cancer research and management.

Abstract
This study is intended for describing the application of the Photoplethysmography (PPG) signal and the time domain features acquired from its first and second derivatives for biometric identification. For this purpose, a sum of 40 features has been extracted and a feature-ranking algorithm is proposed. This proposed algorithm calculates the contribution of each feature to biometric recognition and collocates the features, the contribution of which is from great to small. While identifying the contribution of the features, the Euclidean distance and absolute distance formulas are used. The efficiency of the proposed algorithms is demonstrated by the results of the k-NN (k-nearest neighbor) classifier applications of the features. During application, each 15-period-PPG signal belonging to two different durations from each of the thirty healthy subjects were used with a PPG data acquisition card. The first PPG signals recorded from the subjects were evaluated as the 1st configuration; the PPG signals recorded later at a different time as the 2nd configuration and the combination of both were evaluated as the 3rd configuration. When the results were evaluated for the k-NN classifier model created along with the proposed algorithm, an identification of 90.44% for the 1st configuration, 94.44% for the 2nd configuration, and 87.22% for the 3rd configuration has successfully been attained. The obtained results showed that both the proposed algorithm and the biometric identification model based on this developed PPG signal are very promising for contactless recognizing the people with the proposed method.

Abstract
Lung Cancer is known as one of the most difficult cancer to cure, and the number of deaths that it causes generally increasing. A detection of the Lung Cancer in its early stage can be helpful for Medical treatment to limit the danger, but it is a challenging problem due to Cancer cell structure. Interpretation of Medical image is often difficult and time consuming, even for the experienced Physicians. The aid of image analysis Based on machine learning can make this process easier. This paper describes fully Automatic Decision Support system for Lung Cancer diagnostic from CT Lung images. Most traditional medical diagnosis systems are founded on huge quantity of training data and takes long processing time. However, on the occasion that very little volume of data is available, the traditional diagnosis systems derive defects such as larger error, Time complexity. Focused on the solution to this problem, a Medical Diagnosis System based on Hidden Markov Model (HMM) is presented. In this paper we describe a pre-processing stage involving some Noise removal techniques help to solve this problem, we preprocess an images (by Mean Error Square Filtering and Histogram analysis)obtained after scanning the Lung CT images. Secondly separate the lung areas from an image by a segmentation process (by Thresholding and region growing techniques). Finally we developed HMM for the classification of Cancer Nodule. Results are checked for 2D and 4D CT images. This automation process reduces the time complexity and increases the diagnosis confidence.

Abstract
This paper introduces a two-stage approach to the detection of people eating and/or drinking for the purposes of surveillance of daily life. With the sole use of wearable accelerometer sensor attached to somebody’s (man or a woman) wrists, this two-stage approach consists of feature extraction followed by classification. At the first stage, based on the limb’s three dimensional kinematics movement model and the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF), the realtime arm movement features described by Euler angles are extracted from the raw accelerometer measurement data. In the latter stage, the Hierarchical Temporal Memory (HTM) network is adopted to classify the extracted features of the eating/drinking activities based on the space and time varying property of the features, by making use of the powerful modelling capability of HTM network on dynamic signals which is varying with both space and time. The proposed approach is tested through the real eating and drinking activities using the three dimensional accelerometers. Experimental results show that the EKF and HTM based two-stage approach can perform the activity detection successfully with very high accuracy.
