Cardiovascular disease is one of the diseases threatening the human health, and its diagnosis has always been a research hotspot in the medical field. In particular, the diagnosis technology based on ECG (electrocardiogram) signal as an effective method for studying cardiovascular diseases has attracted many scholars? attention. In this paper, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is used to study the feature classification of three kinds of ECG signals, which including sinus rhythm (SR), Ventricular Tachycardia (VT) and Ventricular Fibrillation (VF). Specifically, different convolution layer structures and different time intervals are used for ECG signal classification, such as the division of 2-layer and 4-layer convolution layers, the setting of four time periods (1s, 2s, 3s, 10s), etc. by performing the above classification conditions, the best classification results are obtained. The contribution of this paper is mainly in two aspects. On the one hand, the convolution neural network is used to classify the arrhythmia data, and different classification effects are obtained by setting different convolution layers. On the other hand, according to the data characteristics of three kinds of ECG signals, different time periods are designed to optimize the classification performance. The research results provide a reference for the classification of ECG signals and contribute to the research of cardiovascular diseases.

The incidence of cardiovascular disease is increasing year by year and is showing a younger trend. At the same time, existing medical resources are tight. The automatic detection of ECG signals becomes increasingly necessary. This paper proposes an automatic classification of ECG signals based on a dilated causal convolutional neural network. To solve the problem that the recurrent neural network framework network cannot be accelerated by hardware equipment, the dilated causal convolutional neural network is adopted. Given the features of the same input and output time steps of the recurrent neural network and the nondisclosure of future information, the network is constructed with fully convolutional networks and causal convolution. To reduce the network depth and prevent gradient explosion or gradient disappearance, the dilated factor is introduced into the model, and the residual blocks are introduced into the model according to the shortcut connection idea. The effectiveness of the algorithm is verified in the MIT-BIH Atrial Fibrillation Database (MIT-BIH AFDB). In the experiment of the MIT-BIH AFDB database, the classification accuracy rate is 98.65%.

Abstract Delayed diagnosis of atrial fibrillation (AF) and congestive heart failure (CHF) can lead to death. Early diagnosis of these cardiac conditions is possible by manually analyzing electrocardiogram (ECG) signals. However, manual diagnosis is complex, owing to the various characteristics of ECG signals. Several studies have reported promising results using the automatic classification of ECG signals. The performance accuracy needs to be improved considering that an accurate classification system of AF and CHF has the potential to save a patient’s life. An optimal ECG signal classification system for AF and CHF has been proposed in this study using a one-dimensional convolutional neural network (1-D CNN) to improve the performance. A total of 150 datasets of ECG signals were modeled using the1-D CNN. The proposed 1-D CNN algorithm, provided precision values, recall, f1-score, accuracy of 100%, and successfully classified raw data of ECG signals into three conditions, which are normal sinus rhythm (NSR), AF, and CHF. The results showed that the proposed method outperformed the previous methods. This approach can be considered as an adjunct for medical personnel to diagnose AF, CHF, and NSR.

In this paper, we propose a deep learning convolutional neural network (CNN) approach to classify arrhythmia based on the time interval of the QRS complex of the ECG signal. The ECG signal was denoised using multiple filters based on the Pan Tompkins algorithm. QRS detection has been done using Pan Tompkins Algorithm. Then the QRS complex is identified using local peaks based technique inside the layers of the Convolutional Neural Network where the repeated application of the same filter to our input results in a map of activations called a feature map, indicating the locations and strength of a detected feature in an input which in our case is the changes in the q-s time interval. Based on the R-R time interval, Heart rate variability (HRV) was computed, and Poincare plot was generated. Instead of using raw ECG signal to train the CNN, we used the feature extracted from ECG signal obtained from Physionet database to train the CNN and map the pattern changes for different classes of diseases. The classifier was then used to classify the test input as either or normal, tachyarrhythmia or intracardiac atrial fibrillation. Data acquisition, ECG data pre-processing and CNN classifier are the several methods that are involved for the classification of several arrhythmias.

The article proposes the classification of lenses with different symmetrical beam angles and offers a scale as a spot-light’s palette. A collection of spotlight’s images was created and classified according to the proposed scale. The analysis of 788 pcs of existing lenses and reflectors with different LEDs and COBs carried out, and the dependence of the axial light intensity from beam angle was obtained. A transfer training of new deep convolutional neural network (CNN) based on the pre-trained GoogleNet was performed using this collection. GradCAM analysis showed that the trained network correctly identifies the features of objects. This work allows us to classify arbitrary spotlights with an accuracy of about 80 %. Thus, light designer can determine the class of spotlight and corresponding type of lens with its technical parameters using this new model based on CCN.

This article deals with method of binary classification of images with small text on them Classification is based on the fact that the text can have 2 directions – it can be positioned horizontally and read from left to right or it can be turned 180 degrees so the image must be rotated to read the sign. This type of text can be found on the covers of a variety of books, so in case of recognizing the covers, it is necessary first to determine the direction of the text before we will directly recognize it. The article suggests the development of a deep neural network for determination of the text position in the context of book covers recognizing. The results of training and testing of a convolutional neural network on synthetic data as well as the examples of the network functioning on the real data are presented.

Abstract:: Millions of deaths all over the world are caused by breast cancer every year. It has become the most common type of cancer in women. Early detection will help in better prognosis and increases the chance of survival. Automating the classification using Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD) systems can make the diagnosis less prone to errors. Multi class classification and Binary classification of breast cancer is a challenging problem. Convolutional neural network architectures extract specific feature descriptors from images, which cannot represent different types of breast cancer. This leads to false positives in classification, which is undesirable in disease diagnosis. The current paper presents an ensemble Convolutional neural network for multi class classification and Binary classification of breast cancer. The feature descriptors from each network are combined to produce the final classification. In this paper, histopathological images are taken from publicly available BreakHis dataset and classified between 8 classes. The proposed ensemble model can perform better when compared to the methods proposed in the literature. The results showed that the proposed model could be a viable approach for breast cancer classification.
