To date, coronavirus has mutated to seven different shapes evolving into various variants. The main deliberation of catching the disease is carelessness and negligence of the citizens, and in developing countries like India, population and illiteracy makes it even more difficult to control the disease. However, immunity can be the superhero in fighting against the virus that invades the host. Although a strong immunity is important to fight the disease, the symptoms show at a later stage by the body of a human with a stronger immunity and cases are getting critical in this case. After a long struggle, scientists have come up with vaccines that are 90% efficient and show some side effects. The world is expected to function only if ‘herd immunity' is achieved, but it is expected that wearing masks would be the new normal.","PeriodicalId":225442,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Medical Technologies and Clinical Practice","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116733093","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}

First, the EEG signal is broken down into the frequency sub-bands using a discrete wavelet transform (DWT). Then the kernel principle component analysis (KPCA) method is used to reduce the dimension of data. They input these extracted features into a neural network to find if the patient has an epileptic seizure or not. The results of the classification process due to artificial neural networks (ANN) are studied and analyzed. Also, to recognize the abnormal activities in the EEG signal, caused by changes in neuronal electrochemical activity in epileptic patients, the EEG signal is processed using the Hilbert Huang transform (HHT). Given the wide array of epilepsy, we need to make use of intelligent devices in the treatment of epilepsy by using the patient's neurophysiology for better diagnosis before the clinical operation.","PeriodicalId":225442,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Medical Technologies and Clinical Practice","volume":"83 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115741550","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}

Machine learning algorithms have produced promising results for diversified data. This chapter constructs the effective classification model for medical data analysis. In particular, nine classification models, namely Naïve Bayes, decision tree (i.e., J48 and Random Forest), multilayer perceptron, radial bias function, k-nearest neighbors, single conjunctive rule learner, support vector machine, and simple logistics have been applied for developing an effective model. Besides, classification models have also been used in conjunction with ensemble learning methods, since ensemble methods significantly increase the predictive outcomes of the classification models. The evaluation of classification models has been measured using accuracy, f-measure, precision, and recall metrics. The empirical results revealed that the combination of ensemble learning methods with classification models produces better predictions in comparison with sole classification model for the medical data.","PeriodicalId":225442,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Medical Technologies and Clinical Practice","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130051980","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 signals are initially preprocessed to remove undesired signal components. Further, a reconfigurable multichannel multiply accumulate (MAC)-based FIR filter is utilized for achieving the desired signal. Then the signal is classified based on the reference data with the use of self-regulated machine learning and fuzzy deduction schemes which involves averaging and thresholding process. Further, the signals are categorized into completely awake level, partially awake level, and sleep level using fuzzy if-then rules.

The region of interest is identified and segmented from the input skin melanoma image. The features, such as HSV color, shape, and texture, are extracted from the region of interest. The features are treated as a feature space, which is assumed to be a multivariate normal random field. The proposed statistical tests are employed to identify and classify the melanoma images. The proposed method yields an average correct classification up to 91.55% for the normal skin lesion versus the initial and the advanced stages of the melanoma images, up to 91.39% for initial stage melanoma versus the normal skin lesion and the advanced stages melanoma, and up to 92.27% for the advanced stage melanoma versus the normal skin lesion and the initial stage melanoma.
