These systems learn, adapt, act and make decisions autonomously instead of just executing predefined programmed instructions. This paper presents such intelligent computer-aided diagnostic (CAD) system, named as RID network, that learns how to distinguish between normal and Tuberculosis (TB) infected radiograph. Such systems can help reducing TB epidemic as it is a curable disease and early diagnosis is a critical step towards its prevention and cure. The proposed CAD system is an ensemble created by feature-level fusion of three deep neural network models: ResNet, Inception-ResNet and DenseNet. The models were used as feature extractors and support vector machine (SVM) was used as a classifier. The methodology was tested on publically available Shenzhen dataset, which was randomly split into a 90:10 ratio as training and testing set respectively. The process was repeated 10 times with random split data to calculate the average accuracy. The algorithm achieved 90.5% average accuracy that is among top accuracies achieved till date and hence, proved its robustness and competence.","PeriodicalId":407809,"journal":{"name":"2018 9th Cairo International Biomedical Engineering Conference (CIBEC)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127890446","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}

Its main goal is to allow for non-muscular communication with external world, which may be the only way for patients in a locked-in state. In this paper, many approaches are studied where users healthy brain signals are recorded using electroencephalogram (EEG) and explored in order to be able to control some smart home appliances and a robotic arm for self-feeder to help disabled persons, who cannot move or talk, to live independently in a brain-controlled environment. Specifically, the Steady State Visual Evoked Potentials (SSVEP) brain response induced by visual stimulus is used to detect at which frequency the subject is exactly looking, and at this moment the software sends the corresponding request to move the robotic arm to the desired plate to feed himself. Also, a Wi-Fi-based smart home automation is introduced, where light intensity and fan speed are controlled automatically through the physiological state of the individual without any external stimuli, or voluntary through the SSVEP method. Finally, a comfortable way is proposed to let the user choose between two options by an EEG-based color recognition (red and blue colors).","PeriodicalId":407809,"journal":{"name":"2018 9th Cairo International Biomedical Engineering Conference (CIBEC)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131342650","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}

Bone cements play an important role in the elastic zone. In human hip joint, about ten to twelve times of the body weight acts upon the hip joint. This gives rise to the need of the bone cement to absorb the forces acting upon the human hip joint. Plexiglas, which is Poly Methyl Methacrylate (PMMA) is the material of choice for obtaining bone cements. Three methods are conducted to produce PMM4; namely, the emulsion polymerization, solution polymerization and bulk polymerization. From these methods; in-situ and in-vivo extremely exothermic reactions of free radical bulk polymerization are used to produce PMM4 bone cements. Radical polymerization gives atactic and amorphous PMM4. Also, aseptic loosening is caused by residual monomer which remains unreacted in the body. Free radical polymerization models can describe the bone cement production effectively and are used for quantitative analysis of its synthesis. In this research, bone cement production is mathematically investigated based on multi-cell reactor. Solubility of the pre-polymer powder in the liquid monomer has shown to be the most important variable during the preparation process and that it should be tuned to control the real operation of bone cement production.","PeriodicalId":407809,"journal":{"name":"2018 9th Cairo International Biomedical Engineering Conference (CIBEC)","volume":"30 2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132705848","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}
