EENED: End-to-End Neural Epilepsy Detection based on Convolutional Transformer

Recently Transformer and Convolution neural network (CNN) based models have shown promising results in EEG signal processing. Transformer models can capture the global dependencies in EEG signals through a self-attention mechanism, while CNN models can capture local features such as sawtooth waves. In this work, we propose an end-to-end neural epilepsy detection model, EENED, that combines CNN and Transformer. Specifically, by introducing the convolution module into the Transformer encoder, EENED can learn the time-dependent relationship of the patient's EEG signal features and notice local EEG abnormal mutations closely related to epilepsy, such as the appearance of spikes and the sprinkling of sharp and slow waves. Our proposed framework combines the ability of Transformer and CNN to capture different scale features of EEG signals and holds promise for improving the accuracy and reliability of epilepsy detection. Our source code will be released soon on GitHub.Comment: Accepted by IEEE CAI 202

The title compound, [CdCl2(C14H14N4)2]n, has a slightly distorted octa­hedral coordination geometry, formed by four N atoms from 1,4-bis­(imidazol-1-ylmeth­yl)benzene ligands and two Cl atoms, giving a two-dimensional network. The Cd atom lies on a centre of inversion

Modified steady discrete unified gas kinetic scheme for multiscale radiative heat transfer

In this work, a steady discrete unified gas kinetic scheme (SDUGKS) is proposed to solve the steady radiative transfer equation (RTE), which is an improvement of the original SDUGKS [X. F. Zhou et al., J. Comput. Phys. 423, 109767 (2020)]. The trapezoidal rule other than the rectangular rule used in the original SDUGKS is adopted in the proposed method in the reconstruction of energy flux across cell interface, just as the unsteady DUGKS. By this way, the characteristic line length of the modified SDUGKS establishes a relationship with the Courant-Friedrichs-Lewy (CFL) number in the DUGKS, which guarantees the accuracy of the modified SDUGKS. Furthermore, the characteristic line length is no longer limited by the extinction coefficient like in original SDUGKS. As a result, the modified SDUGKS is more accurate and robust than original SDUGKS, and more efficient than the DUGKS for steady radiation problems. Furthermore, the smooth linear interpolation and the van Leer limiter are used for problems with smooth and discontinuous optical thicknesses, respectively. Several numerical tests with optical thickness varying from optical thin to thick are conducted to validate the present scheme. Numerical results demonstrate that the modified SDUGKS can serve as an effective tool in the study of multiscale steady radiative heat transfer in participating media.Comment: 23pages,16 figures,2 table
