In this study, in order to improve the accuracy of human hand motion pattern recognition, a novel pattern recognition method for optimizing the support vector machine (SVM) by using a cloud adaptive quantum chaos ions motion optimization (AQCIMO-SVM) algorithm is proposed. The maximum values of wavelet coefficients were extracted as feature samples from the de-noised surface electromyography (sEMG) signals, which were collected from the forearm muscles of several subjects, and then the extracted feature was inputted into an SVM to classify action recognition. In addition, the AQCIMO algorithm was applied to optimize the penalty parameters and the kernel parameters of the SVM, which are used to avoid the uncertainty and complexity of parameter selection and improve the recognition precision of the model, thus improving the model recognition accuracy. The simulation results demonstrated that the two types of movement, which included basic gestures (rest, hand grasp, hand extension, wrist down, and wrist up) and object grabbing gestures (pre-grab, grab, transport and place, release hand, and return to the original position) were successfully identified by the SVM method combined with the AQCIMO algorithm. Compared to mainstream and classic classifiers, namely, GA-SVM, PSO-SVM, and AFSA-SVM, the accuracy of the proposed method was higher by 4.2% to 8.2% than that of the aforementioned classifiers. Therefore, the AQCIMO-SVM algorithm can efficiently solve the problem of the classification of the action pattern of the sEMG signals, which has a very important practical value.

In the field of noncontact human-computer interaction, it is of crucial importance to distinguish different surface electromyography (sEMG) gestures accurately for intelligent prosthetic control. Gesture recognition based on low sampling frequency sEMG signal can extend the application of wearable low-cost EMG sensor (for example, MYO bracelet) in motion control. In this paper, a combination of sEMG gesture recognition consisting of feature extraction, genetic algorithm (GA), and support vector machine (SVM) model is proposed. Particularly, a novel adaptive mutation particle swarm optimization (AMPSO) algorithm is proposed to optimize the parameters of SVM; moreover, a new calculation method of mutation probability is also defined. The AMPSO-SVM model based on combination processing is successfully applied to MYO bracelet dataset, and four gesture classifications are carried out. Furthermore, AMPSO-SVM is compared with PSO-SVM, GS-SVM, and BP. The sEMG gesture recognition rate of AMPSO-SVM is 0.975, PSO-SVM is 0.9463, GS-SVM is 0.9093, and BP is 0.9019. The experimental results show that AMPSO-SVM is effective for low-frequency sEMG signals of different gestures.

Essentially, the classification of human hand movements is a process of pattern recognition. However, existing computationally intense and complex pattern recognition methods have failed thus far to be optimally successful in constructing associations between extracted signal features. Due to such limitations, a new pattern recognition method using variable predictive model-based class discrimination (VPMCD) is proposed. This approach considers that the feature values can exhibit inter-relations in nature and such associations will show different forms in different classes. In practice, this is always true for different hand movements. The signals produced by electromyography (EMG) and received from human arm muscles, are characteristically non-linear and non-stationary. A novel hand gesture recognition technique, based on wavelet feature extraction and VPMCD is proposed. First, the maximum values of the wavelet coefficient are extracted as the feature vectors from the surface EMG signals after de-noising. Then, the feature values are regarded as the inputs of the VPMCD classifier. Finally, four movement patterns (hand clenching, hand extension, wrist flexion, and wrist extension) are identified by the outputs of the VPMCD classifier. Our analysis results show that the proposed pattern recognition approach can distinguish different gestures successfully and effectively. Simultaneously, compared with the artificial neural network and the support vector machine classifier, more accurate recognition can be achieved using our proposed technique.

The failure of most startups in Indonesia is caused by team performance that is not solid and competent. Programmers are an integral profession in a startup team. The development of social media can be used as a strategic tool for recruiting the best programmer candidates in a company. This strategic tool is in the form of an automatic classification system of social media posting from prospective programmers. The classification results are expected to be able to predict the performance patterns of each candidate with a predicate of good or bad performance. The classification method with the best accuracy needs to be chosen in order to get an effective strategic tool so that a comparison of several methods is needed. This study compares classification methods including the Support Vector Machines (SVM) algorithm, Random Forest (RF) and Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD). The classification results show the percentage of accuracy with k = 10 cross validation for the SVM algorithm reaches 81.3%, RF at 74.4%, and SGD at 80.1% so that the SVM method is chosen as a model of programmer performance classification on social media activities.

Aiming at the nonstationary and nonlinear characteristics of acoustic impulse response signal in pipeline blockage and the difficulty in identifying the different degrees of blockage, this paper proposed a pattern recognition method based on local mean decomposition (LMD), information entropy theory, and extreme learning machine (ELM). Firstly, the impulse response signals of pipeline extracted in different operating conditions were decomposed with LMD method into a series of product functions (PFs). Secondly, based on the information entropy theory, the appropriate energy entropy, singular spectrum entropy, power spectrum entropy, and Hilbert spectrum entropy were extracted as the input feature vectors. Finally, ELM was introduced for classification of pipeline blockage. Through the analysis of acoustic impulse response signal collected under the condition of health and different degrees of blockages in pipeline, the results show that the proposed method can well characterize the state information. Also, it has a great advantage in terms of accuracy and it is time consuming when compared with the support vector machine (SVM) and BP (backpropagation) model.

The role of the hand is crucial for the performance of activities of daily living, thereby ensuring a full and autonomous life. Its motion is controlled by a complex musculoskeletal system of approximately 38 muscles. Therefore, measuring and interpreting the muscle activation signals that drive hand motion is of great importance in many scientific domains, such as neuroscience, rehabilitation, physiotherapy, robotics, prosthetics, and biomechanics. Electromyography (EMG) can be used to carry out the neuromuscular characterization, but it is cumbersome because of the complexity of the musculoskeletal system of the forearm and hand. This paper reviews the main studies in which EMG has been applied to characterize the muscle activity of the forearm and hand during activities of daily living, with special attention to muscle synergies, which are thought to be used by the nervous system to simplify the control of the numerous muscles by actuating them in task-relevant subgroups. The state of the art of the current results are presented, which may help to guide and foster progress in many scientific domains. Furthermore, the most important challenges and open issues are identified in order to achieve a better understanding of human hand behavior, improve rehabilitation protocols, more intuitive control of prostheses, and more realistic biomechanical models.

Patients in intensive care units (ICUs) were at higher risk of worsen prognosis and mortality. Here, we aimed to evaluate the ability of the Simplified Acute Physiology Score (SAPS II) to predict the risk of 7-day mortality, and to test a machine learning algorithm which combines the SAPS II with additional patients’ characteristics at ICU admission. We used data from the “Italian Nosocomial Infections Surveillance in Intensive Care Units” network. Support Vector Machines (SVM) algorithm was used to classify 3782 patients according to sex, patient’s origin, type of ICU admission, non-surgical treatment for acute coronary disease, surgical intervention, SAPS II, presence of invasive devices, trauma, impaired immunity, antibiotic therapy and onset of HAI. The accuracy of SAPS II for predicting patients who died from those who did not was 69.3%, with an Area Under the Curve (AUC) of 0.678. Using the SVM algorithm, instead, we achieved an accuracy of 83.5% and AUC of 0.896. Notably, SAPS II was the variable that weighted more on the model and its removal resulted in an AUC of 0.653 and an accuracy of 68.4%. Overall, these findings suggest the present SVM model as a useful tool to early predict patients at higher risk of death at ICU admission.

AbstractA three-descriptor quantitative structure–activity/toxicity relationship (QSAR/QSTR) model was developed for the skin permeability of a sufficiently large data set consisting of 274 compounds, by applying support vector machine (SVM) together with genetic algorithm. The optimal SVM model possesses the coefficient of determination R2 of 0.946 and root mean square (rms) error of 0.253 for the training set of 139 compounds; and a R2 of 0.872 and rms of 0.302 for the test set of 135 compounds. Compared with other models reported in the literature, our SVM model shows better statistical performance in a model that deals with more samples in the test set. Therefore, applying a SVM algorithm to develop a nonlinear QSAR model for skin permeability was achieved.
