Abstract Background: In body area network (BAN), accurate prediction of ECG signal can not only let doctors know the patient's condition in advance, but also help to reduce the energy consumption of sensors. In order to improve the accuracy of ECG signal prediction, this paper proposes a deep learning method for ECG signal prediction. Methods: The proposed prediction method combines variational mode decomposition (VMD), Cao method and a long short-term memory (LSTM) neural network. In the method, VMD decomposes ECG data into a series of intrinsic mode functions (IMFs), which reduces the non-stationary character of ECG signals and helps to improve the prediction accuracy. Cao method is used to determine the input dimension of LSTM input layer, namely, the minimum embedding dimension of each IMF is the input dimension of LSTM input layer. Each IMF is predicted by a LSTM neural network which adopts Adam optimizer. All IMFs predictions are aggregated to get the final prediction result. Results: To evaluate the prediction accuracy of the proposed method, simulation experiments are carried out on ECG data from the MIT-BIH Arrhythmia Database. Experimental results show that the RMSE (root mean square error) and MAE (mean absolute error) of the proposed model are 0.001326 and 0.001044 respectively, which are more than 10 percent lower than the traditional prediction methods.Conclusions: Compared with some traditional prediction methods, the proposed prediction method improves the prediction accuracy obviously.

Abstract Background: It is significant for doctors and body area networks (BANs) to predict ECG signals accurately. At present, the prediction accuracy of many existing ECG prediction methods is generally low. In order to improve the prediction accuracy of ECG signals in BANs, a hybrid prediction method of ECG signals is proposed in this paper. Methods: The proposed prediction method combines variational mode decomposition (VMD), phase space reconstruction (PSR), and a radial basis function (RBF) neural network. First, the embedding dimension and delay time of PSR are calculated according to the trained set of ECG data. Second, the ECG data are decomposed into several intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). Third, the phase space of each IMF is reconstructed according to the embedding dimension and the delay time. Fourth, an RBF neural network is established and each IMF is predicted by the network. Finally, the prediction results of all IMFs are added to realize the final prediction result. Results: To evaluate the prediction performance of the proposed method, simulation experiments are carried out on ECG data from the MIT-BIH Arrhythmia Database. The experimental results show that the prediction index RMSE (root mean square error) of the proposed method is only 10-3 magnitude and that of some traditional prediction methods is 10-2 magnitude.Conclusions: Compared with some traditional prediction methods, the proposed method improves the prediction accuracy of ECG signals obviously.

To explore a method to predict ECG signals in body area networks (BANs), we propose a hybrid prediction method for ECG signals in this paper. The proposed method combines variational mode decomposition (VMD), phase space reconstruction (PSR), and a radial basis function (RBF) neural network to predict an ECG signal. To reduce the nonstationarity and randomness of the ECG signal, we use VMD to decompose the ECG signal into several intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) with finite bandwidth, which is helpful to improve the prediction accuracy. The input parameters of the RBF neural network affect the prediction accuracy and computational burden. We employ PSR to optimize input parameters of the RBF neural network. To evaluate the prediction performance of the proposed method, we carry out many simulation experiments on ECG data from the MIT-BIH Arrhythmia Database. The experimental results show that the root mean square error (RMSE) and mean absolute error (MAE) of the proposed method are of 10-3 magnitude, while the RMSE and MAE of some competitive prediction methods are of 10-2 magnitude. Compared with other several prediction methods, our method obviously improves the prediction accuracy of ECG signals.

The Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR)—associated protein 9 (Cas9) system is a groundbreaking gene-editing tool, which has been widely adopted in biomedical research. However, the guide RNAs in CRISPR-Cas9 system may induce unwanted off-target activities and further affect the practical application of the technique. Most existing in silico prediction methods that focused on off-target activities possess limited predictive precision and remain to be improved. Hence, it is necessary to propose a new in silico prediction method to address this problem. In this work, a deep learning framework named R-CRISPR is presented, which devises an encoding scheme to encode gRNA-target sequences into binary matrices, a convolutional neural network as feature extractor, and a recurrent neural network to predict off-target activities with mismatch, insertion, or deletion. It is demonstrated that R-CRISPR surpasses six mainstream prediction methods with a significant improvement on mismatch-only datasets verified by GUIDE-seq. Compared with the state-of-art prediction methods, R-CRISPR also achieves competitive performance on datasets with mismatch, insertion, and deletion. Furthermore, experiments show that data concatenate could influence the quality of training data, and investigate the optimal combination of datasets.

In the present paper, a method for reliable estimation of defect profile in CK45 steel structures is presented using an eddy current testing based measurement system and post-processing system based on deep learning technique. So a deep learning method is used to determine the defect characteristics in metallic structures by magnetic field C-scan images obtained by an anisotropic magneto-resistive sensor. Having designed and adjusting the deep convolution neural network and applied it to C-scan images obtained from the measurement system, the performance of deep learning method proposed is compared with conventional artificial neural network methods such as multilayer perceptron and radial basis function on a number of metallic specimens with different defects. The results confirm the superiority of the proposed method for characterizing defects compared to other classical training-oriented methods.

It draws researchers’ attentions how to make use of the log data effectively without paying much for storing them. In this paper, we propose pattern-based deep learning method to extract the features from log datasets and to facilitate its further use at the reasonable expense of the storage performances. By taking the advantages of the neural network and thoughts to combine statistical features with experts’ knowledge, there are satisfactory results in the experiments on some specified datasets and on the routine systems that our group maintains. Processed on testing data sets, the model is 5%, at least, more likely to outperform its competitors in accuracy perspective. More importantly, its schema unveils a new way to mingle experts’ experiences with statistical log parser.

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.

Silicon wafer defect data collected from fabrication facilities is intrinsically imbalanced because of the variable frequencies of defect types. Frequently occurring types will have more influence on the classification predictions if a model gets trained on such skewed data. A fair classifier for such imbalanced data requires a mechanism to deal with type imbalance in order to avoid biased results. This study has proposed a convolutional neural network for wafer map defect classification, employing oversampling as an imbalance addressing technique. To have an equal participation of all classes in the classifier’s training, data augmentation has been employed, generating more samples in minor classes. The proposed deep learning method has been evaluated on a real wafer map defect dataset and its classification results on the test set returned a 97.91% accuracy. The results were compared with another deep learning based auto-encoder model demonstrating the proposed method, a potential approach for silicon wafer defect classification that needs to be investigated further for its robustness.

Although fingerprint-based systems are the commonly used biometric systems, they suffer from a critical vulnerability to a presentation attack (PA). Therefore, several approaches based on a fingerprint biometrics have been developed to increase the robustness against a PA. We propose an alternative approach based on the combination of fingerprint and electrocardiogram (ECG) signals. An ECG signal has advantageous characteristics that prevent the replication. Combining a fingerprint with an ECG signal is a potentially interesting solution to reduce the impact of PAs in biometric systems. We also propose a novel end-to-end deep learning-based fusion neural architecture between a fingerprint and an ECG signal to improve PA detection in fingerprint biometrics. Our model uses state-of-the-art EfficientNets for generating a fingerprint feature representation. For the ECG, we investigate three different architectures based on fully-connected layers (FC), a 1D-convolutional neural network (1D-CNN), and a 2D-convolutional neural network (2D-CNN). The 2D-CNN converts the ECG signals into an image and uses inverted Mobilenet-v2 layers for feature generation. We evaluated the method on a multimodal dataset, that is, a customized fusion of the LivDet 2015 fingerprint dataset and ECG data from real subjects. Experimental results reveal that this architecture yields a better average classification accuracy compared to a single fingerprint modality.

Deep learning technology promotes the development of neural network machine translation (NMT). End-to-End (E2E) has become the mainstream in NMT. It uses word vectors as the initial value of the input layer. The effect of word vector model directly affects the accuracy of E2E-NMT. Researchers have proposed many approaches to learn word representations and have achieved significant results. However, the drawbacks of these methods still limit the performance of E2E-NMT systems. This paper focuses on the word embedding technology and proposes the PW-CBOW word vector model which can present better semantic information. We apply these word vector models on IWSLT14 German-English, WMT14 English-German, WMT14 English-French corporas. The results evaluate the performance of the PW-CBOW model. In the latest E2E-NMT systems, the PW-CBOW word vector model can improve the performance.
