Abstract Background: The transmission of human body movements to other devices through wearable smart bracelets have attracted more and more attentions in the field of human-machine interface (HMI) applications. However, due to the limitation of the collection range of wearable bracelets, it is necessary to study the relationship between the superposition of wrist and finger motion and their cooperative motion to simplify the collection system of the device.Methods: The multi-channel high-density surface electromyogram (HD-sEMG) signal has high spatial resolution and can improve the accuracy of multi-channel fitting. In this study, we quantified the HD-sEMG forearm spatial activation features of 256 channels of hand movement, and performed a linear fitting of the quantified features of fingers and wrist movements to verify the linear superposition relationship between fingers and wrist cooperative movements and their independent movements. The most important thing is to classify and predict the results of the fitting and the actual measured fingers and wrist cooperative actions by four commonly used classifiers: Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) ,K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) ,Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Random Forest (RF), and evaluate the performance of the four classifiers in gesture fitting in detail according to the classification results.Results: In a total of 12 kinds of synthetic gesture actions, in the three cases where the number of fitting channels was selected as 8, 32 and 64, four classifiers of LDA, SVM, RF and KNN are used for classification prediction. When the number of fitting channels was 8, the prediction accuracy of LDA classifier was 99.70%, the classification accuracy of KNN was 99.40%, the classification accuracy of SVM was 99.20%, and the classification accuracy of RF was 93.75%. When the number of fitting channels was 32, the accuracy of LDA was 98.51%, the classification accuracy of KNN was 97.92%, the accuracy of SVM is 96.73%, and the accuracy of RF was 86.61%. When the number of fitting channels is 64, the accuracy of LDA is 95.83%, the classification accuracy of KNN is 91.67%, the accuracy of SVM is 86.90%, and the accuracy of RF is 83.30%.Conclusion: It can be seen from the results that when the number of fitting channels is 8, the classification accuracy of the three classifiers of LDA, KNN and SVM is basically the same, but the time-consuming of SVM is very small. When the amount of data is large, the priority should be selected SVM as the classifier. When the number of fitting channels increases, the classification accuracy of the LDA classifier will be higher than the other three classifiers, so the LDA classifier should be more appropriate. The classification accuracy of the RF classifier in this type of problem has always been far lower than the other three classifiers, so it is not recommended to use the RF classifier as a classifier for gesture stacking related work.

Abstract Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of deaths worldwide. In 2017, CVD contributed to 13,503 deaths in Malaysia. The current approaches for CVD prediction are usually invasive and costly. Machine learning (ML) techniques allow an accurate prediction by utilizing the complex interactions among relevant risk factors. Results: This study presents a case–control study involving 60 participants from The Malaysian Cohort, which is a prospective population-based project. Five parameters, namely, the R–R interval and root mean square of successive differences extracted from electrocardiogram (ECG), systolic and diastolic blood pressures, and total cholesterol level, were statistically significant in predicting CVD. Six ML algorithms, namely, linear discriminant analysis, linear and quadratic support vector machines, decision tree, k-nearest neighbor, and artificial neural network (ANN), were evaluated to determine the most accurate classifier in predicting CVD risk. ANN, which achieved 90% specificity, 90% sensitivity, and 90% accuracy, demonstrated the highest prediction performance among the six algorithms. Conclusions: In summary, by utilizing ML techniques, ECG data can serve as a good parameter for CVD prediction among the Malaysian multiethnic population.

Falls are the major cause of fatal and non-fatal injury among people aged more than 65 years. Due to the grave consequences of the occurrence of falls, it is necessary to conduct thorough research on falls. This paper presents a method for the study of fall detection using surface electromyography (sEMG) based on an improved dual parallel channels convolutional neural network (IDPC-CNN). The proposed IDPC-CNN model is designed to identify falls from daily activities using the spectral features of sEMG. Firstly, the classification accuracy of time domain features and spectrograms are compared using linear discriminant analysis (LDA), k-nearest neighbor (KNN) and support vector machine (SVM). Results show that spectrograms provide a richer way to extract pattern information and better classification performance. Therefore, the spectrogram features of sEMG are selected as the input of IDPC-CNN to distinguish between daily activities and falls. Finally, The IDPC-CNN is compared with SVM and three different structure CNNs under the same conditions. Experimental results show that the proposed IDPC-CNN achieves 92.55% accuracy, 95.71% sensitivity and 91.7% specificity. Overall, The IDPC-CNN is more effective than the comparison in accuracy, efficiency, training and generalization.

Background: Advances in ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF) continue to be hindered by ambiguities in mapping, even between experts. We hypothesized that convolutional neural networks (CNN) may enable objective analysis of intracardiac activation in AF, which could be applied clinically if CNN classifications could also be explained. Methods: We performed panoramic recording of bi-atrial electrical signals in AF. We used the Hilbert-transform to produce 175 000 image grids in 35 patients, labeled for rotational activation by experts who showed consistency but with variability (kappa [κ]=0.79). In each patient, ablation terminated AF. A CNN was developed and trained on 100 000 AF image grids, validated on 25 000 grids, then tested on a separate 50 000 grids. Results: In the separate test cohort (50 000 grids), CNN reproducibly classified AF image grids into those with/without rotational sites with 95.0% accuracy (CI, 94.8%–95.2%). This accuracy exceeded that of support vector machines, traditional linear discriminant, and k-nearest neighbor statistical analyses. To probe the CNN, we applied gradient-weighted class activation mapping which revealed that the decision logic closely mimicked rules used by experts (C statistic 0.96). Conclusions: CNNs improved the classification of intracardiac AF maps compared with other analyses and agreed with expert evaluation. Novel explainability analyses revealed that the CNN operated using a decision logic similar to rules used by experts, even though these rules were not provided in training. We thus describe a scaleable platform for robust comparisons of complex AF data from multiple systems, which may provide immediate clinical utility to guide ablation.

Electroencephalographic (EEG) signals are the preferred input for non-invasive Brain-Computer Interface (BCI). Efficient signal processing strategies, including feature extraction and classification, are required to distinguish the underlying task of BCI. This work proposes the optimized common spatial pattern(CSP) filtering technique as the feature extraction method for collecting the spatially spread variation of the signal. The bandpass filter (BPF) designed for this work assures the availability of event-related synchronized (ERS) and event-related desynchronized (ERD) signal as input to the spatial filter. This work takes consideration of the area-specific electrodes for feature formation. This work further proposes a comparative analysis of classifier algorithms for classification accuracy(CA), sensitivity and specificity and the considered algorithms are Support Vector Machine(SVM), Linear Discriminant Analysis(LDA), and K-Nearest Neighbor(KNN). Performance parameters considered are CA, sensitivity, and selectivity, which can judge the method not only for high CA but also inclining towards the particular class. Thus it will direct in the selection of appropriate classifier as well as tuning the classifier to get the balanced results. In this work, CA, the prior performance parameter is obtained to be 88.2% sensitivity of 94.2% and selectivity 82.2% for the cosine KNN classifier. SVM with linear kernel function also gives the comparable results, thus concluding that the robust classifiers perform well for all parameters in case of CSP for feature extraction.

Abstract Deep learning techniques are playing an important role in the classification and prediction of diseases. Undoubtedly deep learning has a promising future in the health sector, especially in medical imaging. The popularity of deep learning approaches is because of their ability to handle a large amount of data related to the patients with accuracy, reliability in a short span of time. However, the practitioners may take time in analyzing and generating reports. In this paper, we have proposed a Deep Neural Network-based classification model for Parkinson’s disease. Our proposed method is one such good example giving faster and more accurate results for the classification of Parkinson’s disease patients with excellent accuracy of 94.87%. Based on the attributes of the dataset of the patient, the model can be used for the identification of Parkinsonism's. We have also compared the results with other existing approaches like Linear Discriminant Analysis, Support Vector Machine, K-Nearest Neighbor, Decision Tree, Classification and Regression Trees, Random Forest, Linear Regression, Logistic Regression, Multi-Layer Perceptron, and Naive Bayes.

Background: The use of social media daily could nurture a fragmented reading habit. However, little is known whether fragmented reading (FR) affects cognition and what are the underlying electroencephalogram (EEG) alterations it may lead to.Purpose: This study aimed to identify whether individuals have FR habits based on the single-trial EEG spectral features using machine learning (ML), as well as to find out the potential cognitive impairment induced by FR.Methods: Subjects were recruited through a questionnaire and divided into FR and noFR groups according to the time they spent on FR per day. Moreover, 64-channel EEG was acquired in Continuous Performance Task (CPT) and segmented into 0.5–1.5 s post-stimulus epochs under cue and background conditions. The sample sizes were as follows: FR in cue condition, 692 trials; noFR in cue condition, 688 trials; FR in background condition, 561 trials; noFR in background condition, 585 trials. For these single-trials, the relative power (RP) of six frequency bands [delta (1–3 Hz), theta (4–7 Hz), alpha (8–13 Hz), beta1 (14–20 Hz), beta2 (21–29 Hz), lower gamma (30–40 Hz)] were extracted as features. After feature selection, the most important feature sets were fed into three ML models, namely Support-Vector Machine (SVM), K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), and Naive Bayes to perform the identification of FR. RP of six frequency bands was also used as feature sets to conduct classification tasks.Results: The classification accuracy reached up to 96.52% in the SVM model under cue conditions. Specifically, among six frequency bands, the most important features were found in alpha and gamma bands. Gamma achieved the highest classification accuracy (86.69% for cue, 86.45% for background). In both conditions, alpha RP in central sites of FR was stronger than noFR (p &lt; 0.001). Gamma RP in the frontal site of FR was weaker than noFR in the background condition (p &lt; 0.001), while alpha RP in parieto-occipital sites of FR was stronger than noFR in the cue condition (p &lt; 0.001).Conclusion: Fragmented reading can be identified based on single-trial EEG evoked by CPT using ML, and the RP of alpha and gamma may reflect the impairment on attention and working memory by FR. FR might lead to cognitive impairment and is worth further exploration.

Myoelectric pattern recognition (MPR) is used to detect user’s intention to achieve a smooth interaction between human and machine. The performance of MPR is influenced by the features extracted and the classifier employed. A kernel extreme learning machine especially radial basis function extreme learning machine (RBF-ELM) has emerged as one of the potential classifiers for MPR. However, RBF-ELM should be optimized to work efficiently. This paper proposed an optimization of RBF-ELM parameters using hybridization of particle swarm optimization (PSO) and a wavelet function. These proposed systems are employed to classify finger movements on the amputees and able-bodied subjects using electromyography signals. The experimental results show that the accuracy of the optimized RBF-ELM is 95.71% and 94.27% in the healthy subjects and the amputees, respectively. Meanwhile, the optimization using PSO only attained the average accuracy of 95.53 %, and 92.55 %, on the healthy subjects and the amputees, respectively. The experimental results also show that SW-RBF-ELM achieved the accuracy that is better than other well-known classifiers such as support vector machine (SVM), linear discriminant analysis (LDA) and k-nearest neighbor (kNN).

Identifying driving styles using classification models with in-vehicle data can provide automated feedback to drivers on their driving behavior, particularly if they are driving safely. Although several classification models have been developed for this purpose, there is no consensus on which classifier performs better at identifying driving styles. Therefore, more research is needed to evaluate classification models by comparing performance metrics. In this paper, a data-driven machine-learning methodology for classifying driving styles is introduced. This methodology is grounded in well-established machine-learning (ML) methods and literature related to driving-styles research. The methodology is illustrated through a study involving data collected from 50 drivers from two different cities in a naturalistic setting. Five features were extracted from the raw data. Fifteen experts were involved in the data labeling to derive the ground truth of the dataset. The dataset fed five different models (Support Vector Machines (SVM), Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), fuzzy logic, k-Nearest Neighbor (kNN), and Random Forests (RF)). These models were evaluated in terms of a set of performance metrics and statistical tests. The experimental results from performance metrics showed that SVM outperformed the other four models, achieving an average accuracy of 0.96, F1-Score of 0.9595, Area Under the Curve (AUC) of 0.9730, and Kappa of 0.9375. In addition, Wilcoxon tests indicated that ANN predicts differently to the other four models. These promising results demonstrate that the proposed methodology may support researchers in making informed decisions about which ML model performs better for driving-styles classification.
