Electroencephalogram Signalling diagnosis using Softcomputing

The two most frightening things for the researchers in clinical signal processing and computer aided diagnosis are noise and relativity of human judgment. The researchers made effort to overcome these two challenges by using various soft computing approaches. In this article the present benefits of these approaches in the accomplishment of the analysis of electroencephalogram (EEG) is acknowledge. There is also the presentation of the significance of several trend and prospects of further softcomputing methods that can produce better results in signal processing of EEG. Medical experts apply the different softcomputing techniques for disease diagnoses and decision making systems performed on brain actions and modeling of neural impulses of the human encephalon

C-Trend parameters and possibilities of federated learning

Abstract. In this observational study, federated learning, a cutting-edge approach to machine learning, was applied to one of the parameters provided by C-Trend Technology developed by Cerenion Oy. The aim was to compare the performance of federated learning to that of conventional machine learning. Additionally, the potential of federated learning for resolving the privacy concerns that prevent machine learning from realizing its full potential in the medical field was explored. Federated learning was applied to burst-suppression ratio’s machine learning and it was compared to the conventional machine learning of burst-suppression ratio calculated on the same dataset. A suitable aggregation method was developed and used in the updating of the global model. The performance metrics were compared and a descriptive analysis including box plots and histograms was conducted. As anticipated, towards the end of the training, federated learning’s performance was able to approach that of conventional machine learning. The strategy can be regarded to be valid because the performance metric values remained below the set test criterion levels. With this strategy, we will potentially be able to make use of data that would normally be kept confidential and, as we gain access to more data, eventually develop machine learning models that perform better. Federated learning has some great advantages and utilizing it in the context of qEEGs’ machine learning could potentially lead to models, which reach better performance by receiving data from multiple institutions without the difficulties of privacy restrictions. Some possible future directions include an implementation on heterogeneous data and on larger data volume.C-Trend-teknologian parametrit ja federoidun oppimisen mahdollisuudet. Tiivistelmä. Tässä havainnointitutkimuksessa federoitua oppimista, koneoppimisen huippuluokan lähestymistapaa, sovellettiin yhteen Cerenion Oy:n kehittämään C-Trend-teknologian tarjoamaan parametriin. Tavoitteena oli verrata federoidun oppimisen suorituskykyä perinteisen koneoppimisen suorituskykyyn. Lisäksi tutkittiin federoidun oppimisen mahdollisuuksia ratkaista yksityisyyden suojaan liittyviä rajoitteita, jotka estävät koneoppimista hyödyntämästä täyttä potentiaaliaan lääketieteen alalla. Federoitua oppimista sovellettiin purskevaimentumasuhteen koneoppimiseen ja sitä verrattiin purskevaimentumasuhteen laskemiseen, johon käytettiin perinteistä koneoppimista. Kummankin laskentaan käytettiin samaa dataa. Sopiva aggregointimenetelmä kehitettiin, jota käytettiin globaalin mallin päivittämisessä. Suorituskykymittareiden tuloksia verrattiin keskenään ja tehtiin kuvaileva analyysi, johon sisältyi laatikkokuvioita ja histogrammeja. Odotetusti opetuksen loppupuolella federoidun oppimisen suorituskyky pystyi lähestymään perinteisen koneoppimisen suorituskykyä. Menetelmää voidaan pitää pätevänä, koska suorituskykymittarin arvot pysyivät alle asetettujen testikriteerien tasojen. Tämän menetelmän avulla voimme ehkä hyödyntää dataa, joka normaalisti pidettäisiin salassa, ja kun saamme lisää dataa käyttöömme, voimme lopulta kehittää koneoppimismalleja, jotka saavuttavat paremman suorituskyvyn. Federoidulla oppimisella on joitakin suuria etuja, ja sen hyödyntäminen qEEG:n koneoppimisen yhteydessä voisi mahdollisesti johtaa malleihin, jotka saavuttavat paremman suorituskyvyn saamalla tietoja useista eri lähteistä ilman yksityisyyden suojaan liittyviä rajoituksia. Joitakin mahdollisia tulevia suuntauksia ovat muun muassa heterogeenisen datan ja suurempien tietomäärien käyttö

Biomedical Signal and Image Processing

First published in 2005, Biomedical Signal and Image Processing received wide and welcome reception from universities and industry research institutions alike, offering detailed, yet accessible information at the reference, upper undergraduate, and first year graduate level. Retaining all of the quality and precision of the first edition, Biomedical Signal and Image Processing, Second Edition offers a number of revisions and improvements to provide the most up-to-date reference available on the fundamental signal and image processing techniques that are used to process biomedical information. Addressing the application of standard and novel processing techniques to some of today’s principle biomedical signals and images over three sections, the book begins with an introduction to digital signal and image processing, including Fourier transform, image filtering, edge detection, and wavelet transform. The second section investigates specifically biomedical signals, such as ECG, EEG, and EMG, while the third focuses on imaging using CT, X-Ray, MRI, ultrasound, positron, and other biomedical imaging techniques. Updated and expanded, Biomedical Signal and Image Processing, Second Edition offers numerous additional, predominantly MATLAB, examples to all chapters to illustrate the concepts described in the text and ensure a complete understanding of the material. The author takes great care to clarify ambiguities in some mathematical equations and to further explain and justify the more complex signal and image processing concepts to offer a complete and understandable approach to complicated concepts

The effect of electronic word of mouth communication on purchase intention moderate by trust: a case online consumer of Bahawalpur Pakistan

The aim of this study is concerned with improving the previous research finding complete filling the research gaps and introducing the e-WOM on purchase intention and brand trust as a moderator between the e-WOM, and purchase intention an online user in Bahawalpur city Pakistan, therefore this study was a focus at linking the research gap of previous literature of past study based on individual awareness from the real-life experience. we collected data from the online user of the Bahawalpur Pakistan. In this study convenience sampling has been used to collect data and instruments of this study adopted from the previous study. The quantitative research methodology used to collect data, survey method was used to assemble data for this study, 300 questionnaire were distributed in Bahawalpur City due to the ease, reliability, and simplicity, effective recovery rate of 67% as a result 202 valid response was obtained for the effect of e-WOM on purchase intention and moderator analysis has been performed. Hypotheses of this research are analyzed by using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) based on Partial Least Square (PLS). The result of this research is e-WOM significantly positive effect on purchase intention and moderator role of trust significantly affects the relationship between e-WOM, and purchase intention. The addition of brand trust in the model has contributed to the explanatory power, some studied was conduct on brand trust as a moderator and this study has contributed to the literature in this favor. significantly this study focused on current marketing research. Unlike past studies focused on western context, this study has extended the regional literature on e-WOM, and purchase intention to be intergrading in Bahawalpur Pakistan context. Lastly, future studies are recommended to examine the effect of trust in other countries allow for the comparison of the findings
