CNN AND LSTM FOR THE CLASSIFICATION OF PARKINSON'S DISEASE BASED ON THE GTCC AND MFCC

Parkinson's disease is a recognizable clinical syndrome with a variety of causes and clinical presentations; it represents a rapidly growing neurodegenerative disorder. Since about 90 percent of Parkinson's disease sufferers have some form of early speech impairment, recent studies on tele diagnosis of Parkinson's disease have focused on the recognition of voice impairments from vowel phonations or the subjects' discourse. In this paper, we present a new approach for Parkinson's disease detection from speech sounds that are based on CNN and LSTM and uses two categories of characteristics Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCC) and Gammatone Cepstral Coefficients (GTCC) obtained from noise-removed speech signals with comparative EMD-DWT and DWT-EMD analysis. The proposed model is divided into three stages. In the first step, noise is removed from the signals using the EMD-DWT and DWT-EMD methods. In the second step, the GTCC and MFCC are extracted from the enhanced audio signals. The classification process is carried out in the third step by feeding these features into the LSTM and CNN models, which are designed to define sequential information from the extracted features. The experiments are performed using PC-GITA and Sakar datasets and 10-fold cross validation method, the highest classification accuracy for the Sakar dataset reached 100% for both EMD-DWT-GTCC-CNN and DWT-EMD-GTCC-CNN, and for the PC-GITA dataset, the accuracy is reached 100% for EMD-DWT-GTCC-CNN and 96.55% for DWT-EMD-GTCC-CNN. The results of this study indicate that the characteristics of GTCC are more appropriate and accurate for the assessment of PD than MFCC

Alzheimer’s And Parkinson’s Disease Classification Using Deep Learning Based On MRI: A Review

Neurodegenerative disorders present a current challenge for accurate diagnosis and for providing precise prognostic information. Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD), may take several years to obtain a definitive diagnosis. Due to the increased aging population in developed countries, neurodegenerative diseases such as AD and PD have become more prevalent and thus new technologies and more accurate tests are needed to improve and accelerate the diagnostic procedure in the early stages of these diseases. Deep learning has shown significant promise in computer-assisted AD and PD diagnosis based on MRI with the widespread use of artificial intelligence in the medical domain. This article analyses and evaluates the effectiveness of existing Deep learning (DL)-based approaches to identify neurological illnesses using MRI data obtained using various modalities, including functional and structural MRI. Several current research issues are identified toward the conclusion, along with several potential future study directions

A Hybrid Deep Spatio-Temporal Attention-Based Model for Parkinson's Disease Diagnosis Using Resting State EEG Signals

Parkinson's disease (PD), a severe and progressive neurological illness, affects millions of individuals worldwide. For effective treatment and management of PD, an accurate and early diagnosis is crucial. This study presents a deep learning-based model for the diagnosis of PD using resting state electroencephalogram (EEG) signal. The objective of the study is to develop an automated model that can extract complex hidden nonlinear features from EEG and demonstrate its generalizability on unseen data. The model is designed using a hybrid model, consists of convolutional neural network (CNN), bidirectional gated recurrent unit (Bi-GRU), and attention mechanism. The proposed method is evaluated on three public datasets (Uc San Diego Dataset, PRED-CT, and University of Iowa (UI) dataset), with one dataset used for training and the other two for evaluation. The results show that the proposed model can accurately diagnose PD with high performance on both the training and hold-out datasets. The model also performs well even when some part of the input information is missing. The results of this work have significant implications for patient treatment and for ongoing investigations into the early detection of Parkinson's disease. The suggested model holds promise as a non-invasive and reliable technique for PD early detection utilizing resting state EEG

Unsupervised feature extraction with autoencoder : for the representation of parkinson´s disease patients

Dissertation presented as partial requirement for obtaining the Master’s degree in Information Management, with a specialization in Knowledge Management and Business IntelligenceData representation is one of the fundamental concepts in machine learning. An appropriate representation is found by discovering a structure and automatic detection of patterns in data. In many domains, representation or feature learning is a critical step in improving the performance of machine learning algorithms due to the multidimensionality of data that feeds the model. Some tasks may have different perspectives and approaches depending on how data is represented. In recent years, deep artificial neural networks have provided better solutions to several pattern recognition problems and classification tasks. Deep architectures have also shown their effectiveness in capturing latent features for data representation. In this document, autoencoders will be examined to obtain the representation of Parkinson's disease patients and compared with conventional representation learning algorithms. The results will show whether the proposed method of feature selection leads to the desired accuracy for predicting the severity of Parkinson’s disease

Deep Learning Based Abnormal Gait Classification System Study with Heterogeneous Sensor Network

Gait is one of the important biological characteristics of the human body. Abnormal gait is mostly related to the lesion site and has been demonstrated to play a guiding role in clinical research such as medical diagnosis and disease prevention. In order to promote the research of automatic gait pattern recognition, this paper introduces the research status of abnormal gait recognition and systems analysis of the common gait recognition technologies. Based on this, two gait information extraction methods, sensor-based and vision-based, are studied, including wearable system design and deep neural network-based algorithm design. In the sensor-based study, we proposed a lower limb data acquisition system. The experiment was designed to collect acceleration signals and sEMG signals under normal and pathological gaits. Specifically, wearable hardware-based on MSP430 and upper computer software based on Labview is designed. The hardware system consists of EMG foot ring, high-precision IMU and pressure-sensitive intelligent insole. Data of 15 healthy persons and 15 hemiplegic patients during walking were collected. The classification of gait was carried out based on sEMG and the average accuracy rate can reach 92.8% for CNN. For IMU signals five kinds of abnormal gait are trained based on three models: BPNN, LSTM, and CNN. The experimental results show that the system combined with the neural network can classify different pathological gaits well, and the average accuracy rate of the six-classifications task can reach 93%. In vision-based research, by using human keypoint detection technology, we obtain the precise location of the key points through the fusion of thermal mapping and offset, thus extracts the space-time information of the key points. However, the results show that even the state-of-the-art is not good enough for replacing IMU in gait analysis and classification. The good news is the rhythm wave can be observed within 2 m, which proves that the temporal and spatial information of the key points extracted is highly correlated with the acceleration information collected by IMU, which paved the way for the visual-based abnormal gait classification algorithm.步态指人走路时表现出来的姿态，是人体重要生物特征之一。异常步态多与病变部位有关，作为反映人体健康状况和行为能力的重要特征，其被论证在医疗诊断、疾病预防等临床研究中具有指导作用。为了促进步态模式自动识别的研究，本文介绍了异常步态识别的研究现状，系统地分析了常见步态识别技术以及算法，以此为基础研究了基于传感器与基于视觉两种步态信息提取方法，内容包括可穿戴系统设计与基于深度神经网络的算法设计。 在基于传感器的研究中，本工作开发了下肢步态信息采集系统，并利用该信息采集系统设计实验，采集正常与不同病理步态下的加速度信号与肌电信号，搭建深度神经网络完成分类任务。具体的，在系统搭建部分设计了基于MSP430的可穿戴硬件设备以及基于Labview的上位机软件，该硬件系统由肌电脚环，高精度IMU以及压感智能鞋垫组成，该上位机软件接收、解包蓝牙数据并计算出步频步长等常用步态参数。 在基于运动信号与基于表面肌电的研究中，采集了15名健康人与15名偏瘫病人的步态数据，并针对表面肌电信号训练卷积神经网络进行帕金森步态的识别与分类，平均准确率可达92.8%。针对运动信号训练了反向传播神经网络，LSTM以及卷积神经网络三种模型进行五种异常步态的分类任务。实验结果表明，本工作中步态信息采集系统结合神经网络模型，可以很好地对不同病理步态进行分类，六分类平均正确率可达93%。 在基于视觉的研究中，本文利用人体关键点检测技术，首先检测出图片中的一个或多个人，接着对边界框做图像分割，接着采用全卷积resnet对每一个边界框中的人物的主要关节点做热力图并分析偏移量，最后通过热力图与偏移的融合得到关键点的精确定位。通过该算法提取了不同步态下姿态关键点时空信息，为基于视觉的步态分析系统提供了基础条件。但实验结果表明目前最高准确率的人体关键点检测算法不足以替代IMU实现步态分析与分类。但在2m之内可以观察到节律信息，证明了所提取的关键点时空信息与IMU采集的加速度信息呈现较高相关度，为基于视觉的异常步态分类算法铺平了道路
