Signal Characteristics

Electromyography (EMG) is the study of the electrical activity of the muscle. This technique is often used in the diagnosis of neuromuscular diseases. Myopathy is one of these cases, which affect the muscle and causes many changes in the electromyography signal characteristics. This paper presents a new method for analysis and classification of normal and myopathy EMG signals based on continuous wavelet transform (CWT). Classification algorithms, namely Support Vector Machine (SVM), k-Nearest Neighbor (k-NN), Decision Tree (DT), Discriminant Analysis (DA) and Naïve Bayes (NB) were used as classifiers in our study. Five Features were extracted from the continuous wavelet analysis and used as inputs to the mentioned classifiers. Comparison between different classification methods developed in this study was made by evaluation of their results based on multiple scalar performances, mainly accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity. Different combinations of features with different kernel functions were discussed to achieve better performances. Results showed that k-NN classifier achieved the best performances with an accuracy value of 93.68%.

The Time Domain

This study proposes a classification method that uses the continuous wavelet transform and the support vector machine approach to classify refrigerant flow noises generated in an air conditioner. The air conditioning noise was identified as an abnormal signal by the use of the first- and second-order moments. The start and end times of refrigerant flow noises were identified by detecting the singularities of the continuous wavelet transform coefficient in the time domain and by means of listening to the measured sounds. Further, the time-frequency characteristics of refrigerant flow noise were analyzed with the continuous wavelet transform. For the support vector machine-based classification of refrigerant flow noise in an air conditioner, the grid search method was used to determine kernel hyperparameters. Five-fold cross validation was employed for the application of the support vector machine to the classification of air conditioner refrigerant noise. In addition, measured sound sources were modified based on classified refrigerant flow noise to compare the classification accuracy of a jury test with the results of the support vector machine.

Abstract Most of the studies in the field of Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) based on electroencephalography have a wide range of applications. Extracting Steady State Visual Evoked Potential (SSVEP) is regarded as one of the most useful tools in BCI systems. In this study, different methods such as feature extraction with different spectral methods (Shannon entropy, skewness, kurtosis, mean, variance) (bank of filters, narrow-bank IIR filters, and wavelet transform magnitude), feature selection performed by various methods (decision tree, principle component analysis (PCA), t-test, Wilcoxon, Receiver operating characteristic (ROC)), and classification step applying k nearest neighbor (k-NN), perceptron, support vector machines (SVM), Bayesian, multiple layer perceptron (MLP) were compared from the whole stream of signal processing. Through combining such methods, the effective overview of the study indicated the accuracy of classical methods. In addition, the present study relied on a rather new feature selection described by decision tree and PCA, which is used for the BCI-SSVEP systems. Finally, the obtained accuracies were calculated based on the four recorded frequencies representing four directions including right, left, up, and down.

Early diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) based on electromyography (EMG) is crucial. The processing of a non-stationary EMG signal requires powerful multi-resolution methods. Our study analyzes and classifies the EMG signals. In the present work, we introduce a novel flexible method for classification of EMG signals using tunable Q-factor wavelet transform (TQWT). Different sub-bands generated by the TQWT technique were served to extract useful information related to energy and then the calculated features were selected using a filter selection (FS) method. The effectiveness of the feature selection step resulted not only in the improvement of classification performance but also in reducing the computation time of the classification algorithm. The selected feature subsets were used as inputs to multiple classifier algorithms, namely, k-nearest neighbor (k-NN), least squares support vector machine (LS-SVM) and random forest (RF) for automated diagnosis. The experimental results show better classification measures with k-NN classifier compared with LS-SVM and RF. The robustness of the classification task was tested using a ten-fold cross-validation method. The outcomes of our proposed approach can be exploited to aid clinicians in neuromuscular disorders detection.

Abstract Agriculture is one of the important parts of Indian economy. Agricultural field has more contribution towards growth and stability of the nation. Therefore, a current technologies and innovations can help in order to experiment new techniques and methods in the agricultural field. At Present Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of the main, effective, and widely used technology. Especially, Deep Learning (DL) has numerous functions due to its capability to learn robust interpretations from images. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) is the major Deep Learning architecture for image classification. This paper is mainly focus on the deep learning techniques to classify Fruits and Vegetables, the model creation and implementation to identify Fruits and Vegetables on the fruit360 dataset. The models created are Support Vector Machine (SVM), K Nearest Neighbor (KNN), Decision Tree (DT), ResNet Pretrained Model, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), Multilayer Perceptron (MLP). Among the different models ResNet pretrained Model performed the best with an accuracy of 95.83%.
