However, the potential therapeutic benefit was limited by BCI performance variation and the 'BCI-illiterate' problem, in which a non-negligible portion of users cannot reach adequate BCI control. In this paper, we investigated the MI-BCI performance variation across subjects (inter-subject) and within-subjects over an extended period (intra-subject). Eight subjects were recruited for a 7-session MI-based BCI intervention. The results showed that pre-cue theta and beta power were significantly correlated with BCI performance both inter and intra-subject aspects. The pre-cue rhythmic dynamic as a neurophysiological index would provide a way for future predicting and neurofeedback training to improve BCI performance.","PeriodicalId":239684,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Biomedical Signal and Image Processing","volume":"113 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131814469","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 order to determine the location of OD precisely and robustly, an OD localization algorithm based on support vector machine (SVM) is proposed in this paper. According to some structural and intensity features of the bright regions in the retinal images, the SVM classifier is trained to recognize bright OD candidate regions. A convex hull is created on the basis of these candidate regions to locate the center of OD. Compared with OD localization methods in literatures, this proposed approach can locate the center of OD with higher accuracy because the application of machine learning algorithm improves the classification accuracy of bright regions. Three public databases with total 259 images were tested to evaluate the performance. The proposed method can achieve an accuracy of 100%, 96.9%, 97.8% for DRIVE database, DIARETDB0 database and DIARETDB1 database respectively.","PeriodicalId":239684,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Biomedical Signal and Image Processing","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129526075","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}

As a proof of concept, we demonstrated the efficacy of this fluorescence analysis method for analyzing polymerase chain reaction (PCR) kinetics with intercalation dye on the SlipChip device. An integrated fluorescence imaging instrument with a small footprint was developed and will be presented elsewhere. The integration of the SlipChip device, hardware instrument, and fluorescent analysis algorithm provides a powerful tool for nucleic acid analysis and in situ quality control by monitoring amplification kinetics.

Various approaches have been proposed in the literatures. In these methods, the color variation of facial regions, caused by the defect of medium of fake face, is a vitally important clue. The traditional color spaces (e.g. RGB, HSV and YCbCr) are used in many spoofing detection approaches, however, it is not very discriminative to distinguish real and fake faces in these existing color spaces. So, in this paper, we propose a novel method to learn a new color space, which is suitable for face anti-spoofing and can be discriminative between real and fake faces. Different from other color learning methods, our novel method is based on convolutional neural networks and can nonlinearly project the real and fake face images into a distinguishable color s-pace. Extensive experiments are conducted on two publicly available databases, showing very interesting performance compared to other existing color spaces and state-of-the-art.","PeriodicalId":239684,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Biomedical Signal and Image Processing","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127285761","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}

Nevertheless, CNN-based methods strongly depend on the used training set, and even small differences in the input data can cause output disturbance. One of the possible ways to tackle this problem is to use hybrid denoising methods that include combinations of CNN and \"classical\" image denoising algorithms. In this paper we present a hybrid iterative DeepRed algorithm for Poisson and mixed Poisson-Gaussian denoising with an automatic choice of the number of iterations. The choice is based on the control of biomedical image structures. Here we analyze the presence of regular structures in the ridge areas at the difference between noisy and filtered images by a multiscale ridge based approach. It was also discovered that the application of the Anscombe transform in the hybrid method improves denoising results. Test results for retinal image dataset DRIVE and Set12 natural images show practical applicability of the method.","PeriodicalId":239684,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Biomedical Signal and Image Processing","volume":"68 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134481899","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}

Then, the optical flow constraint equation, the visual perception spatial frequency sensitivity function and the mathematical relationship between the image spatial frequency and the visual spatial frequency are studied. The visual perception gradient sensitivity function is calculated, and the influence of various characteristic parameters of the basic image elements on the visual illusion is tested.
