Identification of epilepsy utilizing hilbert transform and SVM based classifier
Epilepsy is a persistent neurological condition of the brain in which the activity of the brain goes out of normal state. Classification and Analysis of EEG signal is the early approach for epilepsy diagnosis. During this paper, we have a tendency to propose an EEG signal classification approach based on Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier. In extracting features from the raw EEG data we applied the Hilbert Transform method and used its coefficients. Then, after the PCA dimension reduction a two-class SVM classifier is used for EEG signals automatic classification, one class for healthy subjects and another for subjects with epilepsy. In SVM classifier we need to divide the EEG signals into a training dataset and testing dataset for classification. We have used five sets of EEG signals which are publicly accessible on EEG time series database. The evaluation and comparison of SVM based classifier with two other classification methods such as KNN and LVQ based classifier was done

Automatic Liver Tumor Segmentation from CT Images Using Graph Convolutional Network
Data Availability Statement: No new data were created.Copyright © 2023 by the authors. Segmenting the liver and liver tumors in computed tomography (CT) images is an important step toward quantifiable biomarkers for a computer-aided decision-making system and precise medical diagnosis. Radiologists and specialized physicians use CT images to diagnose and classify liver organs and tumors. Because these organs have similar characteristics in form, texture, and light intensity values, other internal organs such as the heart, spleen, stomach, and kidneys confuse visual recognition of the liver and tumor division. Furthermore, visual identification of liver tumors is time-consuming, complicated, and error-prone, and incorrect diagnosis and segmentation can hurt the patientâs life. Many automatic and semi-automatic methods based on machine learning algorithms have recently been suggested for liver organ recognition and tumor segmentation. However, there are still difficulties due to poor recognition precision and speed and a lack of dependability. This paper presents a novel deep learning-based technique for segmenting liver tumors and identifying liver organs in computed tomography maps. Based on the LiTS17 database, the suggested technique comprises four Chebyshev graph convolution layers and a fully connected layer that can accurately segment the liver and liver tumors. Thus, the accuracy, Dice coefficient, mean IoU, sensitivity, precision, and recall obtained based on the proposed method according to the LiTS17 dataset are around 99.1%, 91.1%, 90.8%, 99.4%, 99.4%, and 91.2%, respectively. In addition, the effectiveness of the proposed method was evaluated in a noisy environment, and the proposed network could withstand a wide range of environmental signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs). Thus, at SNR = â4 dB, the accuracy of the proposed method for liver organ segmentation remained around 90%. The proposed model has obtained satisfactory and favorable results compared to previous research. According to the positive results, the proposed model is expected to be used to assist radiologists and specialist doctors in the near future.This research received no external funding
