Due to time-varying characteristics of EEG signals, recurrent NN is a useful approach for EEG pattern discrimination. However, when dealing with high-dimensional data, NNs usually have problems of heavy computation burden and difficulty in training. To overcome these problems, the proposed NN incorporates a dimension-reducing stage into the network structure of a recurrent probabilistic NN. Moreover, an EEG discrimination method is developed using wavelet packet transform (WPT) and the proposed NN. EEG discrimination experiments were conducted with EEG signals measured during finger movements. The experimental results of four subjects indicate that the proposed method can achieve relatively high discrimination performance.","PeriodicalId":188447,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 10th IEEE International Conference on Information Technology and Applications in Biomedicine","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132671830","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Experimental determination of carotid artery properties by using strips of human carotid artery is firstly performed. The strips were taken in the longitudinal and in the circumferential directions assuming that the carotid artery wall has the orthotropic characteristics. The material was subjected to uniaxial tension and the stress-stretch curves were obtained for various rates of deformation. It was found that the rates do not have significant effects on the passive response of the material. We employed the measured non-linear stresss-tretch dependence to determine the coefficients in the analytical form of this dependence by a standard fitting procedure. Description of the numerical procedure, considering the carotid artery as a thin-walled shell structure subjected to blood pressure was given. Some results for the carotid artery model by solving coupled problem interaction between artery walls and fluid blood pressure are presented.","PeriodicalId":188447,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 10th IEEE International Conference on Information Technology and Applications in Biomedicine","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129854464","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this challenge, there is an opportunity for formal methods to play a crucial role in filling the gap between low-level measurements acquired by monitoring systems and high-level concepts that are required for the purposes of decision-support. In this work we propose the application of Temporal Logic and Bounded Model Checking as a way to capture patterns of sequenced activities and recognize them in a stream of observed low-level actions. This approach effectively accommodates for the problems of non-deterministic sequencing and interleaved activities. Results of the implementation and lab-experimentation of the proposed system are presented with reference to the case study within a smart kitchen equipped with stereoscopic camera devices.","PeriodicalId":188447,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 10th IEEE International Conference on Information Technology and Applications in Biomedicine","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132811587","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The analytical process is applied to Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) and Multiple Sclerosis (MS) data sets produced by experimental microarray assays. The purpose of the process aims to the filtering of the datasets in order to derive and define statistically significant genetic variants associated with each one of the diseases. Furthermore, the analysis is expanded using the Multifactor Dimensionality Reduction (MDR) data mining strategy. Using MDR we are reducing the dimensionality of the genotyped predictive factors from n-dimensions to one-dimension by characterizing the genotypes of the different locus as high-risk and low-risk. In this way, we can provide risk predictive models about the diseases' susceptibility and the methodology is further extended by adding clinical and environmental factors to the RA and MS genomic loci data. The methodology presented in this study aims to transform the analytical genomic datasets produced by microarray experiments to a knowledge modeling framework constituted of prognostic/diagnostic decision rules and risk predictive factors. Finally, the evaluation methodology of the MDR data mining strategy is presented.","PeriodicalId":188447,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 10th IEEE International Conference on Information Technology and Applications in Biomedicine","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115740780","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study we perform wavelet analysis of the in vivo measured Intensity of the Backscattered Light (IBSL) vs. time curve with the purpose of improving the diagnostic performance of the method. The performance of the Wavelet analysis is comparatively evaluated with the classification performed with the aid of the area under the IBSL vs. time curve parameter (BS-AUC). A total of 371 Intensity of the Back Scattered Light (IBSL) vs. time curves corresponding to 73 tissue points obtained from 64 patients, that have been subsequently biopsied were used for developing and for evaluating the performance of the method. The data set included cases with No Evidence for Disease (NED), Inflammation, HPV, Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia (CIN) grade 1, 2, 3 and Cancer cases. Wavelet transformation combined with a 1-Nearest Neighbor (NN) classifier was used for the first time for classifying the IBSL vs. time curves. The clinical data set was selected from a larger sample with the selected subset to include only cases classified in full agreement between all standard methods (pap-test, colposcopy, histology). This was done for the purpose of establishing a trustful training set and for facilitating comparison between different methods. It was found that both methods display similar performance in identifying (histology confirmed) high grade curves, with sensitivities and specificities exciding 90%. The sensitivity of the wavelet method varies between 63%–85% and the specificity between 94%–97% referring to distinguishing each class from all the other classes. Another important finding of this study is that each method misclassifies different cases, which indicate that their combination, in a data fusion scheme, would further improve the diagnostic performance of the dynamic optical imaging method.","PeriodicalId":188447,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 10th IEEE International Conference on Information Technology and Applications in Biomedicine","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124842183","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
