Abstract

During patient monitoring, false alert in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) becomes a major problem. In the category of alarms, pseudo alarms are regarded as having no clinical or therapeutic significance, and thus they result in fatigue alarms. Artifacts are misrepresentations of tissue structures produced by imaging techniques. These Artifacts can invalidate the Arterial Blood Pressure (ABP) signal. Therefore, it is very important to develop algorithms that can detect artifacts. However, ABP has algorithmic shortcomings and limitations of design. This study is aimed at developing a real-time enhancement of independent component analysis (EICA) and time-domain detection of QRS that can… More >

Abstract We introduce a new wavelet based procedure for detecting outliers in financial discrete time series. The procedure focuses on the analysis of residuals obtained from a model fit, and applied to the Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (GARCH) like model, but not limited to these models. We apply the Maximal-Overlap Discrete Wavelet Transform (MODWT) to the residuals and compare their wavelet coefficients against quantile thresholds to detect outliers. Our methodology has several advantages over existing methods that make use of the standard Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT). The series sample size does not need to be a power of 2 and the… More >

Abstract Biometric-based authentication systems have attracted more attention than traditional authentication techniques such as passwords in the last two decades. Multiple biometrics such as fingerprint, palm, iris, palm vein and finger vein and other biometrics have been introduced. One of the challenges in biometrics is physical injury. Biometric of finger vein is of the biometrics least exposed to physical damage. Numerous methods have been proposed for authentication with the help of this biometric that suffer from weaknesses such as high computational complexity and low identification rate. This paper presents a novel method of scattering wavelet-based identity identification. Scattering wavelet extracts image… More >

Abstract In this paper, Haar collocation algorithm is developed for the solution of first-order of HIV infection CD4⁺ T-Cells model. In this technique, the derivative in the nonlinear model is approximated by utilizing Haar functions. The value of the unknown function is obtained by the process of integration. Error estimation is also discussed, which aims to reduce the error of numerical solutions. The numerical results show that the method is simply applicable. The results are compared with Runge-Kutta technique, Bessel collocation technique, LADM-Pade and Galerkin technique available in the literature. The results show that the Haar technique is easy, precise and… More >

Abstract The present investigations are associated with designing Morlet wavelet neural network (MWNN) for solving a class of susceptible, infected, treatment and recovered (SITR) fractal systems of COVID-19 propagation and control. The structure of an error function is accessible using the SITR differential form and its initial conditions. The optimization is performed using the MWNN together with the global as well as local search heuristics of genetic algorithm (GA) and active-set algorithm (ASA), i.e., MWNN-GA-ASA. The detail of each class of the SITR nonlinear COVID-19 system is also discussed. The obtained outcomes of the SITR system are compared with the Runge-Kutta… More >

Abstract In Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT), the reconstructed image has insufficient contrast, poor resolution and inaccurate volume of the tumor size due to physical degradation factors. Generally, nonstationary filtering of the projection or the slice is one of the strategies for correcting the resolution and therefore improving the quality of the reconstructed SPECT images. This paper presents a new 3D algorithm that enhances the quality of reconstructed thoracic SPECT images and reduces the noise level with the best degree of accuracy. The suggested algorithm is composed of three steps. The first one consists of denoising the acquired projections using the… More >

Abstract For scanning electron microscopes with high resolution and a strong electric field, biomass materials under observation are prone to radiation damage from the electron beam. This results in blurred or non-viable images, which affect further observation of material microscopic morphology and characterization. Restoring blurred images to their original sharpness is still a challenging problem in image processing. Traditional methods can't effectively separate image context dependency and texture information, affect the effect of image enhancement and deblurring, and are prone to gradient disappearance during model training, resulting in great difficulty in model training. In this paper, we propose the use of… More >

Abstract In this article, we introduce a new cancelable biometric template generation layout depending on selective encryption technology and Dual-Tree Complex Wavelet Transform (DT-CWT) fusion. The input face biometric is entered into the automatic face-segmentation (Viola-Jones) algorithm to detect the object in a short time. Viola-Jones algorithm can detect the left eye, right eye, nose, and mouth of the input biometric image. The encoder can choose the left or right eye to generate a cancelable biometric template. The selected eye image of size M × N is XORed with the created pseudo-random number (PRN) matrix C_{M × N} to provide an… More >

Abstract Lightning has been one of the most talked-about natural disasters worldwide in recent years, as it poses a great threat to all industries and can cause huge economic losses. Thunderstorms are often accompanied by natural phenomena such as lightning strikes and lightning, and many scholars have studied deeply the regulations of thunderstorm generation, movement and dissipation to reduce the risk of lightning damage. Most of the current methods for studying thunderstorms focus on using more complex algorithms based on radar or lightning data, which increases the computational burden and reduces the computational efficiency to some extent. This paper proposes a… More >

Abstract Biomedical image processing is a hot research topic which helps to majorly assist the disease diagnostic process. At the same time, breast cancer becomes the deadliest disease among women and can be detected by the use of different imaging techniques. Digital mammograms can be used for the earlier identification and diagnostic of breast cancer to minimize the death rate. But the proper identification of breast cancer has mainly relied on the mammography findings and results to increased false positives. For resolving the issues of false positives of breast cancer diagnosis, this paper presents an automated deep learning based breast cancer… More >
