Arrhythmia is a condition in which the rhythm of heartbeat becomes irregular. This condition in extreme cases can lead to fatal heart attack accidents. In order to reduce heart attack risk, appropriate early treatments should be conducted right after getting results of Arrhythmia condition, which is generated by electrocardiography ECG tools. However, reading ECG results should be done by qualified medical staff in order to diagnose the existence of arrhythmia accurately. This paper proposes a deep learning algorithm method to classify and detect the existence of arrhythmia from ECG reading. Our proposed method relies on Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) to extract feature from a single lead ECG signal and also Gradient Boosting algorithm to predict the final outcome of single lead ECG reading. This method achieved the accuracy of 96.18% and minimized the number of parameters used in CNN Layer.

This study describes a method for classifying electrocorticograms (ECoGs) based on motor imagery (MI) on the brain–computer interface (BCI) system. This method is different from the traditional feature extraction and classification method. In this paper, the proposed method employs the deep learning algorithm for extracting features and the traditional algorithm for classification. Specifically, we mainly use the convolution neural network (CNN) to extract the features from the training data and then classify those features by combing with the gradient boosting (GB) algorithm. The comprehensive study with CNN and GB algorithms will profoundly help us to obtain more feature information from brain activities, enabling us to obtain the classification results from human body actions. The performance of the proposed framework has been evaluated on the dataset I of BCI Competition III. Furthermore, the combination of deep learning and traditional algorithms provides some ideas for future research with the BCI systems.

Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pneumonia and immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy-related pneumonitis share common features. The aim of this study was to determine on chest computed tomography (CT) images whether a deep convolutional neural network algorithm is able to solve the challenge of differential diagnosis between COVID-19 pneumonia and ICI therapy-related pneumonitis. Methods: We enrolled three groups: a pneumonia-free group (n = 30), a COVID-19 group (n = 34), and a group of patients with ICI therapy-related pneumonitis (n = 21). Computed tomography images were analyzed with an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm based on a deep convolutional neural network structure. Statistical analysis included the Mann–Whitney U test (significance threshold at p < 0.05) and the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve). Results: The algorithm showed low specificity in distinguishing COVID-19 from ICI therapy-related pneumonitis (sensitivity 97.1%, specificity 14.3%, area under the curve (AUC) = 0.62). ICI therapy-related pneumonitis was identified by the AI when compared to pneumonia-free controls (sensitivity = 85.7%, specificity 100%, AUC = 0.97). Conclusions: The deep learning algorithm is not able to distinguish between COVID-19 pneumonia and ICI therapy-related pneumonitis. Awareness must be increased among clinicians about imaging similarities between COVID-19 and ICI therapy-related pneumonitis. ICI therapy-related pneumonitis can be applied as a challenge population for cross-validation to test the robustness of AI models used to analyze interstitial pneumonias of variable etiology.

In this study, we propose a personalized glucose prediction model using deep learning for hospitalized patients who experience Type-2 diabetes. We aim for our model to assist the medical personnel who check the blood glucose and control the amount of insulin doses. Herein, we employed a deep learning algorithm, especially a recurrent neural network (RNN), that consists of a sequence processing layer and a classification layer for the glucose prediction. We tested a simple RNN, gated recurrent unit (GRU), and long-short term memory (LSTM) and varied the architectures to determine the one with the best performance. For that, we collected data for a week using a continuous glucose monitoring device. Type-2 inpatients are usually experiencing bad health conditions and have a high variability of glucose level. However, there are few studies on the Type-2 glucose prediction model while many studies performed on Type-1 glucose prediction. This work has a contribution in that the proposed model exhibits a comparative performance to previous works on Type-1 patients. For 20 in-hospital patients, we achieved an average root mean squared error (RMSE) of 21.5 and an Mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) of 11.1%. The GRU with a single RNN layer and two dense layers was found to be sufficient to predict the glucose level. Moreover, to build a personalized model, at most, 50% of data are required for training.

Myocardial infarction (MI) may precipitate severe health damage and lead to irreversible death of the heart muscle, the result of prolonged lack of oxygen if it is not treated in a timely manner. Lack of accurate and early detection techniques for this heart disease has reduced the efficiency of MI diagnosis. In this paper, the design, and implementation of an efficient deep learning algorithm called Adaptive Recurrent neural network (ARNN) is proposed for the MI detection. The main objective of the proposed work is the accurate identification of MI disease using ECG signals. ECG signal denoising has been performed using the Multi-Notch filter, which removes the specified noise frequency range. Discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is utilized for performing the feature extraction that decomposes the ECG signal into varied scales with waveletfiltering bank. After the extraction of specific QRS features, classification of the defected and normal ECG arrhythmic beat has been performed using the deep learning-based ARNN classifier. The MIT-BIH database has been used for testing and training data. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated based on classification accuracy. Results that are attained include the classification accuracy of about 99.21%, 99% of sensitivity and 99.4% of specificity with PPV and NPV of about 99.4 and 99.01 values indicate the enhanced performance of our proposed work compared with the conventional LSTM-CAE and LSTM-CNN techniques.

In this research, Dunhuang murals is taken as the object of restoration, and the role of digital repair combined with deep learning algorithm in mural restoration is explored. First, the image restoration technology is described, as well as its advantages and disadvantages are analyzed. Second, the deep learning algorithm based on artificial neural network is described and analyzed. Finally, the deep learning algorithm is integrated into the digital repair technology, and a mural restoration method based on the generalized regression neural network is proposed. The morphological expansion method and anisotropic diffusion method are used to preprocess the image. The MATLAB software is used for the simulation analysis and evaluation of the image restoration effect. The results show that in the restoration of the original image, the accuracy of the digital image restoration technology is not high. The nontexture restoration technology is not applicable in the repair of large-scale texture areas. The predicted value of the mural restoration effect based on the generalized neural network is closer to the true value. The anisotropic diffusion method has a significant effect on the processing of image noise. In the image similarity rate, the different number of training samples and smoothing parameters are compared and analyzed. It is found that when the value of δ is small, the number of training samples should be increased to improve the accuracy of the prediction value. If the number of training samples is small, a larger value of δ is needed to get a better prediction effect, and the best restoration effect is obtained for the restored image. Through this study, it is found that this study has a good effect on the restoration model of Dunhuang murals. It provides experimental reference for the restoration of later murals.

Classifying and predicting the Mangrove species is one of the most important applications in our ecosystem. Mangroves are the most endangered species that contributes in playing a greater role in our ecosystem. It mainly prevents the calamities like soil erosion, Tsunami, storms, wind turbulence, etc. These Mangroves has to be afforested and conserved in order to maintain a healthy ecosystem. To attain this the study of mangrove is to be done first. To classify the mangroves in its habitat, we use an algorithm from Deep Neural Network.
