AbstractTreatment of lung diseases, which are the third most common cause of death in the world, is of great importance in the medical field. Many studies using lung sounds recorded with stethoscope have been conducted in the literature in order to diagnose the lung diseases with artificial intelligence-compatible devices and to assist the experts in their diagnosis. In this paper, ICBHI 2017 database which includes different sample frequencies, noise and background sounds was used for the classification of lung sounds. The lung sound signals were initially converted to spectrogram images by using time–frequency method. The short time Fourier transform (STFT) method was considered as time–frequency transformation. Two deep learning based approaches were used for lung sound classification. In the first approach, a pre-trained deep convolutional neural networks (CNN) model was used for feature extraction and a support vector machine (SVM) classifier was used in classification of the lung sounds. In the second approach, the pre-trained deep CNN model was fine-tuned (transfer learning) via spectrogram images for lung sound classification. The accuracies of the proposed methods were tested by using the ten-fold cross validation. The accuracies for the first and second proposed methods were 65.5% and 63.09%, respectively. The obtained accuracies were then compared with some of the existing results and it was seen that obtained scores were better than the other results.

Abstract Bronchiectasis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are common human lung diseases. In general, the expert pulmonologistcarries preliminary screening and detection of these lung abnormalities by listening to the adventitious lung sounds. The present paper is an attempt towards the automatic detection of adventitious lung sounds ofBronchiectasis,COPD from normal lung sounds of healthy subjects. For classification of the lung sounds into a normaland adventitious category, we obtain features from phase space representation (PSR). At first, the empirical mode decomposition (EMD) is applied to lung sound signals to obtain intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). The IMFs are then further processed to construct two dimensional (2D) and three dimensional (3D) PSR. The feature space includes the 95% confidence ellipse area and interquartile range (IQR) of Euclidian distances computed from 2D and 3D PSRs, respectively. The process is carried out for the first four IMFs correspondings to normal and adventitious lung sound signals. The computed features depicta significant ability to discriminate the two categories of lung sound signals.To perform classification, we use the least square support vector machine with two kernels, namely, polynomial and radial basis function (RBF).Simulation outcomes on ICBHI 2017 lung sound dataset show the ability of the proposed method in effectively classifying normal and adventitious lung sound signals. LS-SVM is employing RBF kernel provides the highest classification accuracy of 97.67 % over feature space constituted by first, second, and fourth IMF.

Spectral characteristics play an important role in the classification of oil film, but the presence of too many bands can lead to information redundancy and reduced classification accuracy. In this study, a classification model that combines spectral indices-based band selection (SIs) and one-dimensional convolutional neural networks was proposed to realize automatic oil films classification using hyperspectral remote sensing images. Additionally, for comparison, the minimum Redundancy Maximum Relevance (mRMR) was tested for reducing the number of bands. The support vector machine (SVM), random forest (RF), and Hu’s convolutional neural networks (CNN) were trained and tested. The results show that the accuracy of classifications through the one dimensional convolutional neural network (1D CNN) models surpassed the accuracy of other machine learning algorithms such as SVM and RF. The model of SIs+1D CNN could produce a relatively higher accuracy oil film distribution map within less time than other models.

Conventional methods used in brain tumors detection, diagnosis, and classification such as magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography scanning technologies are unbridged in their results. This paper presents a proposed model combination, convolutional neural networks with fuzzy rules in the detection and classification of medical imaging such as healthy brain cell and tumors brain cells. This model contributes fully on the automatic classification and detection medical imaging such as brain tumors, heart diseases, breast cancers, HIV and FLU. The experimental result of the proposed model shows overall accuracy of 97.6%, which indicates that the proposed method achieves improved performance than the other current methods in the literature such as [classification of tumors in human brain MRI using wavelet and support vector machine 94.7%, and deep convolutional neural networks with transfer learning for automated brain image classification 95.0%], uses in the detection, diagnosis, and classification of medical imaging decision supports.

Nowadays, deep learning and convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have become widespread tools in many biomedical engineering studies. CNN is an end-to-end tool which makes processing procedure integrated, but in some situations, this processing tool requires to be fused with machine learning methods to be more accurate. In this paper, a hybrid approach based on deep features extracted from Wavelet CNNs (WCNNs) weighted layers and multiclass support vector machine (MSVM) is proposed to improve recognition of emotional states from electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. First, EEG signals were preprocessed and converted to time-frequency (T-F) color representation or scalogram using the continuous wavelet transform (CWT) method. Then, scalograms were fed into four popular pre-trained CNNs, AlexNet, ResNet-18, VGG-19 and Inception-v3 to fine-tune them. Then, the best feature layer from each one was used as input to the MSVM method to classify four quarters of the valence-arousal model. Finally, subject-independent Leave-One-Subject-Out criterion was used to evaluate the proposed method on DEAP and MAHNOB-HCI databases. Results show that extracting deep features from the earlier convolutional layer of ResNet-18 (Res2a) and classifying using the MSVM increases the average accuracy, precision and recall about 20% and 12% for MAHNOB-HCI and DEAP databases, respectively. Also, combining scalograms from four regions of pre-frontal, frontal, parietal and parietal-occipital and two regions of frontal and parietal achieved the higher average accuracy of 77.47% and 87.45% for MAHNOB-HCI and DEAP databases, respectively. Combining CNN and MSVM increased recognition of emotion from EEG signal and results were comparable to state-of-the-art studies.
