Brain serves as the body's processing of knowledge and management centre. The central nervous system directly produces ElectroEncephaloGram (EEG) physiological signals, which are strongly associated with human emotions. In the upcoming years, there will be an increase in interest for identifying emotion using brain waves by EEG (ElectroEncephaloGraphy) signals. It takes efficient and effective signal processing and feature extraction techniques for detection of emotions from human biological brain signals. Current approaches gather valuable information from a fixed number of ElectroEncephaloGraphy (EEG) channels utilizing variety of methodologies. This work analyses the different difficulties and problems associated with EEG signals for emotion identification and provides a comprehensive summary of several contemporary approaches. Pre-processing, feature extraction, and categorization are the first steps in the process of recognizing emotions from EEG signals. The main goal of this survey is to sought and enhance brain signal-based emotion detection ability by comparing all novel and adaptive channel selection technique that recognize the distinct changes in brain activities that varies between individuals and emotional states.

Power spectral density-based resting-state EEG classification of first-episode psychosis

Historically, the analysis of stimulus-dependent time–frequency patterns has been the cornerstone of most electroencephalography (EEG) studies. The abnormal oscillations in high-frequency waves associated with psychotic disorders during sensory and cognitive tasks have been studied many times. However, any significant dissimilarity in the resting-state low-frequency bands is yet to be established. Spectral analysis of the alpha and delta band waves shows the effectiveness of stimulus-independent EEG in identifying the abnormal activity patterns of pathological brains. A generalized model incorporating multiple frequency bands should be more efficient in associating potential EEG biomarkers with first-episode psychosis (FEP), leading to an accurate diagnosis. We explore multiple machine-learning methods, including random-forest, support vector machine, and Gaussian process classifier (GPC), to demonstrate the practicality of resting-state power spectral density (PSD) to distinguish patients of FEP from healthy controls. A comprehensive discussion of our preprocessing methods for PSD analysis and a detailed comparison of different models are included in this paper. The GPC model outperforms the other models with a specificity of 95.78% to show that PSD can be used as an effective feature extraction technique for analyzing and classifying resting-state EEG signals of psychiatric disorders.

Learning complex predicates for cardinality estimation using recursive neural networks

Cardinality estimation is one of the most vital components in the query optimizer, which has been extensively studied recently. On one hand, traditional cardinality estimators, such as histograms and sampling methods, struggle to capture the correlations between multiple tables. On the other hand, current learning-based methods still suffer from the feature extraction of complex predicates and join relations, which will lead to inaccurate cost estimation, eventually a sub-optimal execution plan. To address these challenges, we present a novel end-to-end architecture leveraging deep learning to provide high-quality cardinality estimation. We exploit an effective feature extraction technique, which can fully make use of the structure of tables, join conditions and predicates. Besides, we use sampling-based technique to construct sample bitmaps for the tables and join conditions respectively. We also utilize the characteristics of predicate tree combined with recursive neural network to extract deep-level features of complex predicates. Finally, we embed these feature vectors into the model, which consists of three components: a recursive neural network, a graph convolutional neural network (GCN) and a multi-set convolutional neural network, to obtain the estimated cardinality. Extensive results conducted on real-world workloads demonstrate that our approach can achieve significant improvement in accuracy and be extended to queries with complex semantics.

This research addresses the critical challenge of detecting cotton leaf diseases through an advanced image processing and machine learning approach. The study primarily focuses on the extraction of significant features from cotton leaf images to facilitate accurate disease identification. The novelty of this work lies in the application of the Limited-memory Broyden–Fletcher–Goldfarb–Shanno (L-BFGS) algorithm for optimizing Support Vector Machines (SVM), enhancing the precision of disease detection in cotton leaves. This research method involves a comprehensive process of acquiring high-resolution leaf images, followed by an effective feature extraction technique that isolates crucial characteristics indicative of various plant diseases. Subsequently, these features are employed to train an SVM model optimized by the L-BFGS algorithm, a decision process that marks a significant departure from traditional gradient descent methods in SVM training. A pivotal aspect of this study is the comparative analysis conducted between the proposed L-BFGS-optimized SVM model and prevalent machine learning models including Random Forest, Decision Tree, Regression Models, and K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN). This comparison is grounded on various performance metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score, offering a comprehensive evaluation of each model's effectiveness in disease detection. The results of this research are expected to demonstrate the superiority of the L-BFGS-optimized SVM in terms of accuracy and efficiency in detecting cotton leaf diseases. This advancement holds substantial promise for agricultural technology, potentially leading to more informed and timely decision-making in crop management and disease prevention. The findings of this study aim to contribute significantly to the field of agricultural informatics, particularly in the domain of plant disease detection and management, by providing a more robust, accurate, and efficient tool for farmers and agriculturalists.

A Novel Framework for Epileptic Seizure Detection Using Electroencephalogram Signals Based on the Bat Feature Selection Algorithm

The precise electroencephalogram (EEG) signal classification with the highest possible accuracy is a key goal in the brain-computer interface (BCI). Considering the complexity and nonstationary nature of the EEG signals, there is an urgent need for effective feature extraction and data mining techniques. Here, we introduce a novel pipeline based on Bat and genetic algorithms for feature construction and dimension reduction of EEG signals. After wavelet extraction and segmentation, the Bat algorithm identifies the most relevant features. We use these features and a genetic algorithm combined with a neural network method to automatically classify the segments of the epilepsy EEG signals. We also use available classification methods based on k-Nearest Neighbors or naïve Bayes for comparison purposes. The code distinguishes individual signals within various combinations of data obtained from healthy volunteers with open or closed eyes and patients suffering from epilepsy disorders during seizure-free periods or seizure activities. Compared to the previously introduced methods, our proposed framework demonstrates a superior balance of high accuracy and short runtime. The minimum achieved accuracies for balanced and unbalanced classes are 100% and 75.9%, respectively. This approach has the potential for direct applications in clinics, enabling accurate and rapid analysis of the epilepsy EEG signals obtained from patients.

A FUSION OF A DISCRETE WAVELET TRANSFORM-BASED AND TIME-DOMAIN FEATURES EXTRACTION FOR MOTOR IMAGERY CLASSIFICATION

A motor imagery (MI)-based brain-computer interface (BCI) has performed successfully as a control mechanism with multiple electroencephalogram (EEG) channels. For practicality, fewer EEG channels are preferable. This paper investigates a single-channel EEG signal for MI. However, there are insufficient features that can be extracted due to a single-channel EEG signal being used in one region of the brain. An effective feature extraction technique plays a critical role in overcoming this limitation. Therefore, this study proposes a fusion of discrete wavelet transform (DWT)-based and time-domain feature extraction to provide more relevant information for classification. The highest accuracy obtained on the BCI Competition III (IVa) dataset is 87.5% with logistic regression (LR) while the OpenBMI dataset attained the highest accuracy of 93% with support vector machine (SVM) as the classifier. Addressing the potential of enhancing the performance of a single EEG channel located on the forehead, the achieved result is relatively promising.

Oral cancer is the eighth most common type of cancer in the world. Every year, 130,000 people in India die from mouth cancer. Getting a diagnosis from a clinical exam by skilled doctors and a biopsy takes time. When a problem is found early, it is always easier to treat. The primary goal of this work is to recognise disease-affected oral regions in a given oral image and classify the oral cancer disorder. This study employs unique Deep Learning algorithms to detect the location of disease-affected oral areas. This work employs the most effective feature extraction techniques, including appearance and patter-based features. Following feature extraction, the Bee Pulse Couple Neural Network (BeePCNN) algorithm is used to choose the best feature. Finally, Deep Learning is used to classify these attributes. An innovative FGPSOCNN reduces the computational complexity of CNN. On an additional real-time data set from Arthi Scan Hospital, a secondary evaluation is conducted. The experimental results indicate that the innovative FGPSOCNN performs better than existing methods.

Biometric Analysis on Smart Textile Garment in Real Life Scenario

The rapid proliferation of wearable applications and technologies capable of acquiring biomedical signals has prompted the incorporation of biomedical signals, such as the electrocardiogram (ECG), for biometric purposes in wearable platforms. Most ECG biometric research utilises medical-grade sensors in clinical settings, which is unrealistic for wearable ECG-based biometric applications in the real world. Therefore, this research aims to examine the ECG biometric on smart textile garments in real life, collected from commercially available wearable Hexoskin Proshirt and HeartIn Fit shirts. ECG data were obtained from 22 participants who took part in this study. The raw ECG signal is initially pre-processed using noise-removal Butterworth filters in the time domain, followed by an effective QRS segmented feature extraction technique. Finally, around 2076 datasets were created for training and validation, while the remaining 501 datasets were employed to test the suggested recognition approach with 29 Machine Learning Classifiers. Subsequently, Quadratic SVM has the highest accuracy at 96.8% for ECG biometrics, followed by Narrow Neural Network with 95.8% and Wide Neural Network with 95.4%. Further improvement to the QSVM parameter improved the accuracy to 97.4% with an error rate of 2.6%, followed by a sensitivity of 97.4% with a precision of 97.7% and a false rejection rate of 2.6%. Thus, the results of this study further validate the feasibility of applying ECG biometrics for recognition in real-life scenarios utilising a smart textile shirt with different configurations and brand is possible.

Research on broiler health status recognition method based on improved YOLOv5

Caged broilers, reared extensively, necessitate timely health assessment to mitigate farming losses. Therefore, accurate detection of broiler health status holds a pivotal role in averting avian disease propagation. In this study, we propose a method for broiler health recognition using YOLOv5′s original structure, augmented with the lightweight mobile-EMO network model. Initially, we replace YOLOv5′s backbone convolutional, pooling, and connectivity layers with the EMO module, except the decoupling header. This substitution crafts an efficient model, amplifying overall performance. The EMO module introduces iRMB, a more effective feature extraction technique capturing diverse-scale feature information. Moreover, a continuous activation function supplants the conventional ReLU, enhancing feature expression. Further, EMO integrates 1×1 inflated convolution and windowed sub-attention, augmenting network performance. Additionally, we employ the SPPF module instead of SPP, replacing Detect with Decoupled Detect, constructing an advanced YOLOv5 network for broiler health state recognition. Through training and evaluation, a deep learning model is formulated, discerning caged broiler health. Experimental outcomes reveal that, even under intricate conditions, health detection attains a 0.959 recall rate, 0.956 accuracy, and 0.978 average accuracy. In comparison with basic YOLOv5, this method heightens average accuracy by 1.5%. Compared to YOLOv7 and YOLOv8, average accuracy increases by 3.1% and 1.8% correspondingly. The proposed approach fosters preliminary intelligent health detection, curbing manual intervention, lowering breeding costs, augmenting farming economics, and referencing health intelligent detection in broiler breeding.

EPILEPTIC EEG SIGNALS RHYTHMS ANALYSIS IN THE DETECTION OF FOCAL AND NON-FOCAL SEIZURES BASED ON OPTIMISED MACHINE LEARNING AND DEEP NEURAL NETWORK ARCHITECTURE

Objective: Most studies in epileptic seizure detection and classification focused on classifying different types of epileptic seizures. However, localization of the epileptogenic zone in epilepsy patient brain’s is paramount to assist the doctor in locating a focal region in patients screened for surgery. Therefore, this paper proposed robust models for the localization of epileptogenic areas for the success of epilepsy surgery. Method: Advanced feature extraction techniques were proposed as effective feature extraction techniques based on Electroencephalogram (EEG) rhythms extracted from Fourier Basel Series Expansion Multivariate Empirical Wavelet Transform (FBSE-MEWT). The proposed extracted EEG rhythms of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] features were used to obtain a joint instantaneous frequency and amplitude components using a sub-band alignment approach. The features are used in Sparse Autoencoder (SAE), Deep Belief Network (DBN), and Support Vector Machine (SVM) with the optimized capability to develop three new models: 1. FMEWT–SVM 2. FMEWT_SAE–SVM, and 3. FMEWT–DBN–SVM. The EEG signal was preprocessed using a proposed Multiscale Principal Component Analysis (mPCA) to denoise the noise embedded in the signal. Main results: The developed models show a significant performance improvement, with the SAE–SVM outperforming other proposed models and some recently reported works in literature with an accuracy of 99.7% using [Formula: see text]-rhythms in channels 1 and 2. Significance: This study validates the EEG rhythm as a means of discriminating the embedded features in epileptic EEG signals to locate the focal and non-focal regions in the epileptic patient’s brain to increase the success of the surgery and reduce computational cost.

Human Activity Recognition Using Attention-Mechanism-Based Deep Learning Feature Combination.

Human activity recognition (HAR) performs a vital function in various fields, including healthcare, rehabilitation, elder care, and monitoring. Researchers are using mobile sensor data (i.e., accelerometer, gyroscope) by adapting various machine learning (ML) or deep learning (DL) networks. The advent of DL has enabled automatic high-level feature extraction, which has been effectively leveraged to optimize the performance of HAR systems. In addition, the application of deep-learning techniques has demonstrated success in sensor-based HAR across diverse domains. In this study, a novel methodology for HAR was introduced, which utilizes convolutional neural networks (CNNs). The proposed approach combines features from multiple convolutional stages to generate a more comprehensive feature representation, and an attention mechanism was incorporated to extract more refined features, further enhancing the accuracy of the model. The novelty of this study lies in the integration of feature combinations from multiple stages as well as in proposing a generalized model structure with CBAM modules. This leads to a more informative and effective feature extraction technique by feeding the model with more information in every block operation. This research used spectrograms of the raw signals instead of extracting hand-crafted features through intricate signal processing techniques. The developed model has been assessed on three datasets, including KU-HAR, UCI-HAR, and WISDM datasets. The experimental findings showed that the classification accuracies of the suggested technique on the KU-HAR, UCI-HAR, and WISDM datasets were 96.86%, 93.48%, and 93.89%, respectively. The other evaluation criteria also demonstrate that the proposed methodology is comprehensive and competent compared to previous works.

Attention-based multimodal sentiment analysis and emotion recognition using deep neural networks

There has been a growing interest in multimodal sentiment analysis and emotion recognition in recent years due to its wide range of practical applications. Multiple modalities allow for the integration of complementary information, improving the accuracy and precision of sentiment and emotion recognition tasks. However, working with multiple modalities presents several challenges, including handling data source heterogeneity, fusing information, aligning and synchronizing modalities, and designing effective feature extraction techniques that capture discriminative information from each modality. This paper introduces a novel framework called “Attention-based Multimodal Sentiment Analysis and Emotion Recognition (AMSAER)” to address these challenges. This framework leverages intra-modality discriminative features and inter-modality correlations in visual, audio, and textual modalities. It incorporates an attention mechanism to facilitate sentiment and emotion classification based on visual, textual, and acoustic inputs by emphasizing relevant aspects of the task. The proposed approach employs separate models for each modality to automatically extract discriminative semantic words, image regions, and audio features. A deep hierarchical model is then developed, incorporating intermediate fusion to learn hierarchical correlations between the modalities at bimodal and trimodal levels. Finally, the framework combines four distinct models through decision-level fusion to enable multimodal sentiment analysis and emotion recognition. The effectiveness of the proposed framework is demonstrated through extensive experiments conducted on the publicly available Interactive Emotional Dyadic Motion Capture (IEMOCAP) dataset. The results confirm a notable performance improvement compared to state-of-the-art methods, attaining 85% and 93% accuracy for sentiment analysis and emotion classification, respectively. Additionally, when considering class-wise accuracy, the results indicate that the “angry” emotion and “positive” sentiment are classified more effectively than the other emotions and sentiments, achieving 96.80% and 93.14% accuracy, respectively.

Spectrum sensing in cognitive radio networks using an ensemble of machine learning frameworks and effective feature extraction

From the signal received on a particular frequency band, spectrum sensing (SS) is used in cognitive radio (CR) to assess whether the primary user (PU) is using the spectrum and, consequently, whether the secondary user (SU) can utilize the spectrum. The main issue with SS is determining the presence of the primary signal in a low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Compared to conventional technologies, machine learning techniques are more effective and accurate at identifying the qualities of input data. This paper proposes a machine learning (ML) based SS model for CR with effective feature extraction and reduction techniques. The proposed work comprises five phases: noise removal, wavelet transform, feature extraction, dimensionality reduction, and classification. Firstly, noise filtering is done on the received signal to remove the noise present in the input signal using the filters such as moving median filter (MMF), Gaussian filter (GF), and Gabor filter (GBF). After that, the filtered signal is transformed into a wavelet domain using Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) algorithm. Then the statistical features such as average absolute value, wavelet energy, variance, standard deviation, and peak value features are extracted from the DWT. Next, the dimensionality reduction (DR) is performed using Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA). Finally, the classification is performed using the ensemble ML classifiers such as Support Vector Machine (SVM), Naive Bayes (NB), and K-Nearest Neighbour (KNN), which classify whether the PU signal is active or not. Simulations are carried out to analyze the efficiency of the presented models for SS. The results proved that SVM obtains the best performance for SS with higher accuracy and lower SNR.

Feature extraction and classification of hyperspectral imaging using minimum noise fraction and deep convolutional neural network

Remote sensing technology is constantly developing, which has greatly expanded the use of hyperspectral imaging (HSI). In the arena of remote sensing, the classification of HSI has become a challenging topic. The unique properties of hyperspectral data make accurate categorization difficult. In recent years, deep structured learning has emerged as an effective feature extraction technique for effectively addressing nonlinear problems. It is now extensively used to solve a variety of image processing problems. Deep learning is used to classify images and has shown good performance in recent years. The exact categorization of ground topographies from hyperspectral data is a crucial and current research topic that has gotten a lot of attention. This research work focuses on HSI categorization utilizing several machine learning approaches, such as support vector machine, K-nearest neighbor, and convolutional neural network (CNN). To reduce the number of superfluous and noisy bands in the dataset, principal component analysis and minimum noise fraction (MNF) were utilized. Different performance evaluation measures, such as time taken for testing, classification accuracy, kappa accuracy, precision, recall, specificity, F1_score, and G-mean, were taken to prove the efficacy of the models. The simulation results show that the combination of MNF and CNN produces better classification accuracy compared with the other considered models.

SERS-based sensor with a machine learning based effective feature extraction technique for fast detection of colistin-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae

Colistin-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (ColR-Kp) causes high mortality rates since colistin is used as the last-line antibiotic against multi-drug resistant Gram-negative bacteria. To reduce infections and mortality rates caused by ColR-Kp fast and reliable detection techniques are vital. In this study, we used a label-free surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-based sensor with machine learning algorithms to discriminate colistin-resistant and susceptible strains of K. pneumoniae. A total of 16 K. pneumoniae strains were incubated in tryptic soy broth (TSB) for 4 h. Collected SERS spectra of ColR-Kp and colistin susceptible K. pneumoniae (ColS-Kp) have shown some spectral differences that hard to discriminate by the naked eye. To extract discriminative features from the dataset, autoencoder and principal component analysis (PCA) that extract features in a non-linear and linear manner, respectively were performed. Extracted features were fed into the support vector machine (SVM) classifier to discriminate K. pneumoniae strains. Classifier performance was evaluated by using features extracted by each feature extraction techniques. Classification results of SVM classifier with extracted features by an autoencoder (autoencoder-SVM) has shown better performance than SVM classifier with extracted features by PCA (PCA-SVM). The accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and area under curve (AUC) value of the autoencoder-SVM model were found as 94%, 94.2%, 93.8%, and 0.98, respectively. Furthermore, the autoencoder-SVM model has demonstrated statistically significantly better classifier performance than PCA-SVM in terms of accuracy and AUC values. These results illustrate that non-linear features can be more discriminative than linear ones to determine SERS spectral data of antibiotic-resistant and susceptible bacteria. Our methodological approach enables rapid and high accuracy detection of ColR-Kp and ColS-Kp, suggesting that this can be a promising tool to limit colistin resistance.

In recent years, exploration of local characteristics have been an effective feature extraction technique for managing multimedia repository for image retrieval. These class of approaches accelerate the image retrieval. However, with the increase of online intrusion, it is also essential to provide confidentiality for the private online data with effective functionality and significant retrieval accuracy. In this paper, we have solved the protuberant bottleneck problem of privacy-preserving in CBIR using random projection technique for feature encryption with effective retrieval. For this, we formulated highly discriminative interest points based features that are rotation and translation invariant and are constructed using k-means clustering and silhouette concept. Moreover, we have devised locally likely arrangement hashing technique that can incorporate fast, accurate, and secure matching over encrypted features. Based on the experiment, it substantially outperforms the recent state-of-the-art techniques in terms of retrieval accuracy and time overhead on various standard benchmarks, namely, Corel, Olivia, ALOI, and MPEG-7. The proposed method on average provided retrieval accuracy of 83.10%, 81.30%, 81.62%, 73.01% for Corel, Olivia, ALOI and MPEG-7 plaintexted feature, respectively while retrieval accuracy of 79.90% for Corel, 79.10% for Olivia, 79.97% for ALOI, and 67.34% for MPEG-7 using the encrypted feature.

Detection of Breast Cancer Using Histopathological Image Classification Dataset with Deep Learning Techniques.

Cancer is one of the top causes of mortality, and it arises when cells in the body grow abnormally, like in the case of breast cancer. For people all around the world, it has now become a huge issue and a threat to their safety and wellbeing. Breast cancer is one of the major causes of death among females all over the globe, and it is particularly prevalent in the United States. It is possible to diagnose breast cancer using a variety of imaging modalities including mammography, computerized tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), ultrasound, and biopsies, among others. To analyze the picture, a histopathology study (biopsy) is often performed, which assists in the diagnosis of breast cancer. The goal of this study is to develop improved strategies for various CAD phases that will play a critical role in minimizing the variability gap between and among observers. It created an automatic segmentation approach that is then followed by self-driven post-processing activities to successfully identify the Fourier Transform based Segmentation in the CAD system to improve its performance. When compared to existing techniques, the proposed segmentation technique has several advantages: spatial information is incorporated, there is no need to set any initial parameters beforehand, it is independent of magnification, it automatically determines the inputs for morphological operations to enhance segmented images so that pathologists can analyze the image with greater clarity, and it is fast. Extensive tests were conducted to determine the most effective feature extraction techniques and to investigate how textural, morphological, and graph characteristics impact the accuracy of categorization classification. In addition, a classification strategy for breast cancer detection has been developed that is based on weighted feature selection and uses an upgraded version of the Genetic Algorithm in conjunction with a Convolutional Neural Network Classifier. The practical application of the suggested improved segmentation and classification algorithms for the CAD framework may reduce the number of incorrect diagnoses and increase the accuracy of classification. So, it may serve as a second opinion tool for pathologists and aid in the early detection of diseases.

This work proposes a new fault diagnosis approach for a wind energy conversion (WEC) system. The proposed technique merges the benefits of feature extraction based on Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) and Multi-Class Random Forest (MCRF)-based fault classification where instances are classified into one or more classes. In the developed GPR-MCRF approach, the nonlinear statistical features including the mean vector MGPR and the variance matrix CGPR are computed using the GPR model with aim of extracting the most relevant features from the WEC system.

Different case studies are investigated in order to illustrate the effectiveness and robustness of the developed technique compared to the state-of-the-art methods.The obtained results show that the the developed GPR-MCRF technique is an effective feature extraction and fault diagnosis technique for WEC systems.

Local Pattern Transformation Based Feature Extraction for Recognition of Parkinson’s Disease Based on Gait Signals

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neuro-degenerative disorder primarily triggered due to the deterioration of dopamine-producing neurons in the substantia nigra of the human brain. The early detection of Parkinson’s disease can assist in preventing deteriorating health. This paper analyzes human gait signals using Local Binary Pattern (LBP) techniques during feature extraction before classification. Supplementary to the LBP techniques, Local Gradient Pattern (LGP), Local Neighbour Descriptive Pattern (LNDP), and Local Neighbour Gradient Pattern (LNGP) were utilized to extract features from gait signals. The statistical features were derived and analyzed, and the statistical Kruskal–Wallis test was carried out for the selection of an optimal feature set. The classification was then carried out by an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) for the identified feature set. The proposed Symmetrically Weighted Local Neighbour Gradient Pattern (SWLNGP) method achieves a better performance, with 96.28% accuracy, 96.57% sensitivity, and 95.94% specificity. This study suggests that SWLNGP could be an effective feature extraction technique for the recognition of Parkinsonian gait.
