Early detection of preterm birth is an important key to prevent and reduce its consequences. As a result, it has been a subject of interest for many researchers. The current work is placed as part of the development of a non-invasive clinical aid tool. We implement a portable and easy-to-use device for pregnant women be able to automatically detect signs associated with uterine contractions. The device is able to detect EHG segments associated with uterine contractions during pregnancy. EHG signals are acquired, in real time, from 12 bipolar electrodes placed on the abdomen of pregnant women. The data are then analyzed and processed with a powerful processor. The technique used for detection is based on the Dynamic Cumulative Sum (DCS) method which has already demonstrated its strong potential in event detection when applied to non-stationary signals. The DCS method is followed by a data fusion method to merge the segments of all bipolar channels. A technique based on Fisher's test has been implemented and applied between two consecutive segments in order to reduce the over-segmentation problem. This strategy was proposed in previous studies and was proved to be accurate and efficient. The results show that a prototype based on the Raspberry Pi board and the Arduino Mega board is very promising for setting up a final prototype.","PeriodicalId":294393,"journal":{"name":"2021 Sixth International Conference on Advances in Biomedical Engineering (ICABME)","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125105963","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}

For example, shopping and board games require mathematical abilities. Numerical cognition and movement preparation may share similar cerebral mechanisms and/or mathematical representations may be rooted in bodily experiences. Recent studies have shown that numerical and arithmetical tasks can influence the performance of a subsequent movement. Factors that can influence the success of such arithmetic cognitive stimuli are not examined yet. The aim of this study was to identity factors affecting mental calculus stimuli used to improve motor performance of a manual pointing task (MPT). Participants, who recently underwent an experimental study aimed to evaluate the effect of mental calculus on a MPT, have been interviewed. Interviews, consisting of a semi-structured open-ended questions discussion, have been analyzed by Alceste Software® (Alceste: Reinert, 1983; Kalampalikis, 2003). Results showed that the richness of the vocabulary was 95.34%. Analysis of the discourses showed that factors such as environment, difficulty of equations and math anxiety affected the perception of the arithmetic cognitive stimuli. We concluded that stress due to math anxiety can be a major factor which can affect the integration of arithmetic cognitive stimuli which, in turn, affect motor performance.","PeriodicalId":294393,"journal":{"name":"2021 Sixth International Conference on Advances in Biomedical Engineering (ICABME)","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123016571","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}

Here, we developed vocal tests’ assessment of PD patients by means of a robust approach based on balanced data and 10-fold cross-validation. In particular, vocal tests consisted in the sustained vowel /e/ and three sentences, from which a number of features were selected by means of audio feature extraction tool. The features were analyzed using different classifiers, such as Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), Support Vector Machine (SVM) with Sequential Minimal Optimization (SMO), and Naïve-Bayes. In addition, statistical analysis was performed consisting in vocal tests and classifiers. In particular, from the analysis of one of the sentences, in revealing subjects affected by PD we obtained an accuracy as high as 96.51% (with a p-value of 0.05), among the highest reported in literature. Both Naïve -Bayes and SVM-SMO outperformed MLP with a mean accuracy of 94.34% and 93.806%, respectively (p-value = 0.05).","PeriodicalId":294393,"journal":{"name":"2021 Sixth International Conference on Advances in Biomedical Engineering (ICABME)","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116635485","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 present study investigates how a useful and widely used Motor Unit (MU) pool recruitment model design impacts simulation results for a particular realistic case: aged Biceps Brachii (BB) muscle. This study: 1) examines how the use of generic MU recruitment model (Fuglevand model) can distort the recruitment rate of faster Motor Units (MUs) for aged BB muscle, and 2) proposes a new type-scaled model based on discrete property ranges for different MUs types. The results show that generic MU recruitment models confusing size and type of MUs can deliver a non-realistic recruitment behavior for particular cases: elderly people. Additionally, such models are not appropriate for mixed, reversed, and type-discrete recruitment orders observed in animal and human acquisitions. The new proposed model recruits higher number of fast MUs at higher force ranges than the orderly size recruitment. This aspect increases muscle efficiency with more realistic prediction of surface Electromyogram and force generated using models.","PeriodicalId":294393,"journal":{"name":"2021 Sixth International Conference on Advances in Biomedical Engineering (ICABME)","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114902236","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}
