Traditional Chinese Medicine Pulse-Condition Simulation and Wavelet Recognition Method
The human pulse-condition diagnosis is an important part of the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) which is difficult to recognize accurately by doctor’s subjective experience. Objective identification of pulse-conditions has important meanings for modernization of TCM. In this paper human pulse-condition system transfer function model and model parameter estimation were introduced, which are used to construct four kinds of typical pulse-conditions simulation signals. There are normal pulse, taut pulse, slippery pulse and thready pulse. And then, discrete wavelet transform for extracting the multi-scale energy characteristics and wavelet packet decomposition for extracting the multi-band energy characteristics are proposed so as to recognize the pulse-conditions simulation signals. The results show that the recognition effect of discrete wavelet transform method is better. Moreover, the data features of characteristic parameters demonstrate the reality of simulation signals.
