As an example, one may consider physical activity. Obviously, there are health limits to the desired amount of physical activity: too little exercise cannot be recommended but too much activity may also be harmful. So physical activity should preferably stay within a certain range there might even be an optimum value for securing optimal health. This range might well become more critical with increasing age. In technological systems, optimum values are usually secured by so called feedback systems, in which any deviations from an optimum value are measured and, automatic action is taken by changing certain parameters which then bring the value of interest back into its desired range. The purpose of the paper is to find an useful framework for integrating research findings and for defining a possible research agenda by assessing potential advantages and drawbacks of such analogy.","PeriodicalId":20427,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 18th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78600139","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}

Parameters related to signal propagation (light absorption, scattering, reflection, and optical pulses statistical distribution), intrinsic X-ray to light conversion efficiency, and electron signal generated by the photodetector were studied. Image receptors employing Gd/sub 2/O/sub 2/S:Tb screens produce higher optical and electron signal intensities whereas receptors with La/sub 2/O/sub 2/S:Tb screens give better optical pulse statistics, resulting in noise reduction.","PeriodicalId":20427,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 18th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78629870","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}

This paper presents a method for selecting the neural network configuration and the training procedures using an augmented set of patterns, to improve the handwritten digit recognition rate. A genetic algorithm is used to search among configurations of two unequal hidden layer networks for feed-forward, fully connected neural networks. Training procedures involving augmented sets of training patterns is produced by two methods: by adding to the original set the four shifted positions about the center, and second, by magnifying +10% and -10% every handwritten digit of the original training set. It is found that the recognition performance not only depends on the architecture but also on the training method. The best recognition rate of 94.2% is obtained in a genetically selected neural network of two unequal hidden layers, and trained with augmented patterns by shifting and magnification.","PeriodicalId":20427,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 18th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76586257","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 values of ultrasonic attenuation and sound speed of the myocardium at 3.5 MHz were obtained by frequency domain analysis of the pulse response in order to determine the macro-acoustic properties. The micro-acoustic properties were obtained by a specially developed scanning acoustic microscope system operating in the frequency range of 100-200 MHz. At 3.5 MHz, the sound speed was 1600 m/s and the attenuation was 2.5 dB/cm in the normal myocardium, 1582 m/s and 5.8 dB/cm in the necrosis, respectively. At 130 MHz, both values were 1614 m/s and 1.1 dB/mm/MHz in the normal myocardium, 1578 m/s and 0.6 dB/mm/MHz in the necrosis, respectively. The results suggest that the ultrasonic attenuation is affected by both the chemical components and the structure of the tissue.","PeriodicalId":20427,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 18th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80043284","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 sensors range from night vision goggles to high performance infrared target acquisition and tracking systems. With the importance placed upon night vision, lower cost and wider availability of night vision technology is an important consideration. Infrared sensors, which do not require cryogenic cooling, have many of these assets. Recently, the excellent imaging performance of uncooled infrared has captured the attention of many system users, and new applications are rapidly emerging. This paper reviews these application areas, explores new possibilities, and assesses the technology underway to further expand the realm of uncooled infrared imaging. Technological advances, both in the sensor technology and the interface with the imaging system, will expand the use of uncooled infrared sensors into additional military and commercial applications.","PeriodicalId":20427,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 18th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80220224","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}
