Fault diagnosis using an improved fusion feature based on manifold learning for wind turbine transmission system
In this paper, a novel fault diagnosis method based on vibration signal analysis is proposed for fault diagnosis of bearings and gears. Firstly, the ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) is used to decompose the vibration signal into several subsequences, and a multi-entropy (ME) is proposed to make up the fusion features of the vibration signal. Secondly, an improved manifold learning algorithm, local and global preserving embedding (LGPE), is applied to compress the high-dimensional fusion feature set into a two-dimension feature set. Finally, according to the clustering accuracy of different feature set, the fault classification and diagnosis can be performed in the reduced two-dimension space. The performance of the proposed technique is tested on the fault of wind turbine transmission system. The application results indicate that the proposed method can achieve high accuracy of fault diagnosis
Medical Image Imputation from Image Collections
We present an algorithm for creating high resolution anatomically plausible
images consistent with acquired clinical brain MRI scans with large inter-slice
spacing. Although large data sets of clinical images contain a wealth of
information, time constraints during acquisition result in sparse scans that
fail to capture much of the anatomy. These characteristics often render
computational analysis impractical as many image analysis algorithms tend to
fail when applied to such images. Highly specialized algorithms that explicitly
handle sparse slice spacing do not generalize well across problem domains. In
contrast, we aim to enable application of existing algorithms that were
originally developed for high resolution research scans to significantly
undersampled scans. We introduce a generative model that captures fine-scale
anatomical structure across subjects in clinical image collections and derive
an algorithm for filling in the missing data in scans with large inter-slice
spacing. Our experimental results demonstrate that the resulting method
outperforms state-of-the-art upsampling super-resolution techniques, and
promises to facilitate subsequent analysis not previously possible with scans
of this quality. Our implementation is freely available at

sMRI-PatchNet: A Novel Efficient Explainable Patch-Based Deep Learning Network for Alzheimer's Disease Diagnosis With Structural MRI
Structural magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI) can identify subtle brain changes due to its high contrast for soft tissues and high spatial resolution. It has been widely used in diagnosing neurological brain diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the size of 3D high-resolution data poses a significant challenge for data analysis and processing. Since only a few areas of the brain show structural changes highly associated with AD, the patch-based methods dividing the whole data into several regular patches have shown promising for more efficient image analysis. The major challenges of the patch-based methods include identifying the discriminative patches, combining features from the discrete discriminative patches, and designing appropriate classifiers. This work proposes a novel efficient patch-based deep learning network (sMRI-PatchNet) with explainable patch localisation and selection for AD diagnosis. Specifically, it consists of two primary components: 1) A fast and efficient explainable patch selection method for determining the most discriminative patches; and 2) A novel patch-based network for extracting deep features and AD classification with position embeddings to retain position information, capable of capturing the global and local information of inter- and intra-patches. This method has been applied for the AD classification and the prediction of the transitional state moderate cognitive impairment (MCI) conversion with real datasets. The experimental evaluation shows that the proposed method can identify discriminative pathological locations effectively with a significant reduction on patch numbers used, providing better performance in terms of accuracy, computing performance, and generalizability, in contrast to the state-of-the-art methods.10.13039/501100000288-Royal Society—Academy of Medical Sciences Newton Advanced Fellowship (Grant Number: NAF\R1\180371);

Dynamic Analysis of X-ray Angiography for Image-Guided Coronary Interventions
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a minimally-invasive procedure for treating patients with coronary artery disease. PCI is typically performed with image guidance using X-ray angiograms (XA) in which coronary arter
