This article introduces a novel method to assess CVD in athletes through an artificial neural network (ANN). The model utilises the mutual learning-based artificial bee colony (ML-ABC) algorithm to set initial weights and proximal policy optimisation (PPO) to address imbalanced classification. ML-ABC uses mutual learning to enhance the learning process by updating the positions of the food sources with respect to the best fitness outcomes of two randomly selected individuals. PPO makes updates in the ANN stable and efficient to improve the model's reliability. Our approach formulates the classification problem as a series of decision-making processes, rewarding every classification act with higher rewards for correctly identifying the instances of the minority class, hence handling class imbalance. We evaluated the model's performance on a diversified medical dataset including 26,002 athletes who were examined within the Polyclinic for Occupational Health and Sports in Zagreb, further validated with NCAA and NHANES datasets to verify generalisability. Our findings indicate that our model outperforms existing models with accuracies of 0.88, 0.86 and 0.82 for the respective datasets. These results enhance clinical model application and advance cardiovascular disorder detection and methodologies.</p>","PeriodicalId":39637,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Medical Engineering and Technology","volume":" ","pages":"45-64"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143597978","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 protocol showed the following results for the tested uroflowmeters: a simple bench test using a constant flow bottle and cylindric column showed that the uroflow parameters (Q<sub>max</sub> and V<sub>void</sub>) were within the claimed accuracy range and ICS recommendations. The processing of the flow data by the systems effectively filtered noise, and the flow rate decline over the whole measurement range, as produced by the cylindrical flow column, was smooth and linear.

For hierarchical classification framework, at node 1, the segmented mass image is classified as belonging to probably benign (BIRAD-3) class or suspicious abnormality (BIRAD-4 and BIRAD-5) class.

The emergence of deep learning has significantly impacted artificial intelligence and data analysis, prompting extensive exploration into assessing and understanding brain signals.
