Abstract Purpose. Fatigue estimation is of great significance to improve the accuracy of intention recognition and avoid secondary injury in Pilates rehabilitation. Surface electromyography (sEMG) is used to estimate fatigue with low and unstable recognition rates. To improve the rate, this paper fused electrocardiogram (ECG) signal and sEMG signal under three different states, and the classification model of the improved proved particle swarm optimization support vector machine (IPSO-SVM) algorithm was established. Methods. Twenty subjects performed 150 minutes of Pilates rehabilitation exercise. ECG and sEMG signals were collected at the same time. After necessary preprocessing, the IPSO-SVM classification model based on feature fusion was established to identify three different fatigue states (relaxed, transition, and tired). The model effects of different classification algorithms and different fused data types were compared. Results. Compared with common physiological signal classification methods such as BP neural network algorithm(BPNN), K-nearest neighbor(KNN), and Linear discriminant analysis(LDA), IPSO-SVM had obvious advantages in the classification effect of sEMG and ECG signals, the average recognition rate was 87.83%. The recognition rates of sEMG and ECG fusion feature classification models were 94.25%, 92.25%, 94.25%. The recognition accuracy and model performance was significantly improved. Conclusion. The sEMG and ECG signal after feature fusion form a complementary mechanism. At the same time, IPOS-SVM can accurately detect the fatigue state in the process of Pilates rehabilitation. This study establishes technical support for establishing relevant man-machine devices and improving the safety of Pilates rehabilitation.

Fingerprint verification systems have attracted much attention in secure organizations; however, conventional methods still suffer from unconvincing recognition rate for noisy fingerprint images. To design a robust verification system, in this paper, wavelet and contourlet transforms (CTS) were suggested as efficient feature extraction techniques to elicit a coverall set of descriptive features to characterize fingerprint images. Contourlet coefficients capture the smooth contours of fingerprints while wavelet coefficients reveal its rough details. Due to the high dimensionality of the elicited features, across group variance (AGV), greedy overall relevancy (GOR) and Davis–Bouldin fast feature reduction (DB-FFR) methods were adopted to remove the redundant features. These features were applied to three different classifiers including Boosting Direct Linear Discriminant Analysis (BDLDA), Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Modified Nearest Neighbor (MNN). The proposed method along with state-of-the-art methods were evaluated, over the FVC2004 dataset, in terms of genuine acceptance rate (GAR), false acceptance rate (FAR) and equal error rate (EER). The features selected by AGV were the most significant ones and provided 95.12% GAR. Applying the selected features, by the GOR method, to the modified nearest neighbor, resulted in average EER of [Formula: see text]%, which outperformed the compared methods. The comparative results imply the statistical superiority ([Formula: see text]) of the proposed approach compared to the counterparts.

AbstractMould is a common phenomenon in stored wheat. First, mould will decrease the quality of wheat kernels. Second, the mycotoxins metabolized by mycetes are very harmful for humans. Therefore, the fast and accurate examination of wheat mould is vitally important to evaluating its storage quality and subsequent processing safety. Existing methods for examining wheat mould mainly rely on chemical methods, which always involve complex and long pretreatment processes, and the auxiliary chemical materials used in these methods may pollute our environment. To improve the determination of wheat mould, this paper proposed a type of green and nondestructive determination method based on biophotons. The specific implementation process is as follows: first, the ultra-weak luminescence between healthy and mouldy wheat samples are measured repeatedly by a biophotonic analyser, and then, the approximate entropy and multiscale approximate entropy are separately introduced as the main classification features. Finally, the classification performances have been tested using the support vector machine(SVM). The ROC curve of the newly established classification model shows that the highest recognition rate can reach 93.6%, which shows that our proposed classification model is feasible and promising for detecting wheat mould.

In practice, it is difficult for Support Vector Machine (SVM) to have a relatively high recognition rate as well as a quite fast recognition speed. In order to resolve this defect, in this paper we build a SVM classification model combining numerical characteristics. We use readings of rotary natural meters as the test temple, do positioning, preprocessing, feature points extracting, classifying and other series of operations to the numeric region of the dial. Then with the idea of cross-validation, we keep doing parameter optimation to SVM. At last, after making a comprehensive contrast of the effects which numerous performance factors make on the experimental outputs, we try to give our explanation of the outputs from different perspectives.

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.

This work proposes an finest mapping from features space to inherited space using kernel locality non zero eigen values protecting Fisher discriminant analysis subspace approach. This approach is designed by cascading analytical and non-inherited face texture features. Both Gabor magnitude feature vector (GMFV) and phase feature vector (GPFV) are independently accessed. Feature fusion is carried out by cascading geometrical distance feature vector (GDFV) with Gabor magnitude and phase vectors. Feature fusion dataset space is converted into short dimensional inherited space by kernel locality protecting Fisher discriminant analysis method and projected space is normalized by suitable normalization technique to prevent dissimilarity between scores. Final scores of projected domains are fused using greatest fusion rule. Expressions are classified using Euclidean distance matching and support vector machine radial basis function kernel classifier. An experimental outcome emphasizes that the proposed approach is efficient for dimension reduction, competent recognition and classification. Performance of proposed approach is deliberated in comparison with connected subspace approaches. The finest average recognition rate achieves 97.61% for JAFFE and 81.48% YALE database respectively.

Abstract Atrial fibrillation is one of the most common arrhythmias in clinics, which has a great impact on people's physical and mental health. Electrocardiogram (ECG) based arrhythmia detection is widely used in early atrial fibrillation detection. However, ECG needs to be manually checked in clinical practice, which is time-consuming and labor-consuming. It is necessary to develop an automatic atrial fibrillation detection system. Recent research has demonstrated that deep learning technology can help to improve the performance of the automatic classification model of ECG signals. To this end, this work proposes effective deep learning based technology to automatically detect atrial fibrillation. First, novel preprocessing algorithms of wavelet transform and sliding window filtering (SWF) are introduced to reduce the noise of the ECG signal and to filter high-frequency components in the ECG signal, respectively. Then, a robust R-wave detection algorithm is developed, which achieves 99.22% detection sensitivity, 98.55% positive recognition rate, and 2.25% deviance on the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database. In addition, we propose a feedforward neural network (FNN) to detect atrial fibrillation based on ECG records. Experiments verified by a 10-fold cross-validation strategy show that the proposed model achieves competitive detection performance and can be applied to wearable detection devices. The proposed atrial fibrillation detection model achieves an accuracy of 84.00%, the detection sensitivity of 84.26%, the specificity of 93.23%, and the area under the receiver working curve of 89.40% on the mixed dataset composed of Challenge2017 database and MIT-BIH arrhythmia database.

(1) Background: The general use of food-processing facilities in the agro-food industry has increased the risk of unexpected material contamination. For instance, grain flours have similar colors and shapes, making their detection and isolation from each other difficult. Therefore, this study is aimed at verifying the feasibility of detecting and isolating grain flours by using hyperspectral imaging technology and developing a classification model of grain flours. (2) Methods: Multiple hyperspectral images were acquired through line scanning methods from reflectance of visible and near-infrared wavelength (400–1000 nm), reflectance of shortwave infrared wavelength (900–1700 nm), and fluorescence (400–700 nm) by 365 nm ultraviolet (UV) excitation. Eight varieties of grain flours were prepared (rice: 4, starch: 4), and the particle size and starch damage content were measured. To develop the classification model, four multivariate analysis methods (linear discriminant analysis (LDA), partial least-square discriminant analysis, support vector machine, and classification and regression tree) were implemented with several pre-processing methods, and their classification results were compared with respect to accuracy and Cohen’s kappa coefficient obtained from confusion matrices. (3) Results: The highest accuracy was achieved as 97.43% through short-wavelength infrared with normalization in the spectral domain. The submission of the developed classification model to the hyperspectral images showed that the fluorescence method achieves the highest accuracy of 81% using LDA. (4) Conclusions: In this study, the potential of non-destructive classification of rice and starch flours using multiple hyperspectral modalities and chemometric methods were demonstrated.

The result of license plate recognition with a single feature is unsatisfactory. A multi-feature fusion method based on D-S evidence theory is proposed to improve results of mine loadometer license plate recognition. Firstly, three kinds of features including contour, projection and trellis-coded are extracted from the vehicle plate character image. Then the Basic Probability Assignment (BPA) is defined to get the credibility of recognition results by using the multi-class Support Vector Machine (SVM) with one-against-one method. Finally, D-S evidence theory is employed to integrate the credibility of evidences for making a final decision. The experimental results show that the multi-feature fusion method has higher recognition rate, fault tolerance and robustness.
