The proposed method is much faster, more flexible and accurate than previously used hand-made approach.

Individual mesh elements are required to be sufficiently small to recover the behavior stated on the partial differential equations (PDE) EIT model. On the contrary, mesh elements needs to be not so small to fit the computation constraints of modern hardware. The target is to allow a fast iterative execution of the PDE model as performed by many optimization schemes. The estimation of the error over a reference mesh size is an important factor to compare with the total computation time for mesh generation, forward model evaluation, and tomographic inversion. In this work, we analyze the a posteriori convergence of EIT image reconstruction algorithms with respect to the mesh element size and computation time for open and closed domains. The tomographic inversion error is estimated using Euclidean and Jaccard distances for the output images.","PeriodicalId":405270,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Interdisciplinary PhD Workshop (IIPhDW)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123665493","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}

However, there is still a lack of devices that would analyse, assess, and control (independently or with limited support) specialised movement exercises. Here we propose an idea of an automated exercise evaluation mechanism based on machine learning techniques, such as: support vector machines, decision trees, random forest, and k-nearest neighbours. While being only a preliminary case study, our research showed that with appropriate processing even a 100% accuracy score can be achieved in classifying whether an exercise is executed well or not.","PeriodicalId":405270,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Interdisciplinary PhD Workshop (IIPhDW)","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122898251","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 result this is reflected in the turbulence of blood flow and changes in blood pressure over time. Importantly, performed calculations were done for selected configuration and different polarities of utilized magnet sources.
