Bio-medical (EMG) Signal Analysis and Feature Extraction Using Wavelet TransformIJERA Editor
In this paper, the multi-channel electromyogram acquisition system is being developed using programmable
system on chip (PSOC) microcontroller to obtain the surface of EMG signal. The two pairs of single-channel
surface electrodes are utilized to measure the EMG signal obtained from forearm muscles. Then different levels
of Wavelet family are used to analyze the EMG signal. Later features in terms of root mean square, logarithm of
root mean square, centroid of frequency, as well as standard deviation were used to extract the EMG signal. The
proposed method of feature extraction for extracting EMG signal states that root means square feature extraction
method gives better performance as compared to the other features. In the near future, this method can be used to
control a mechanical arm as well as robotic arm in field of real-time processing.

This article investigates solution for the biggest problem of the Direct Torque Control on the asynchronous machine to have the high dynamic performance with very simple hysteresis control scheme. The Conventional Direct Torque Control (CDTC) suffers from some drawbacks such as high current, flux and torque ripple, as well as flux control at very low speed. In this paper, we propose an intelligent approach to improve the direct torque control of induction machine which is an artificial neural networks control. The principle, the numerical procedure and the performances of this method are presented. Simulations results show that the proposed ANN-DTC strategy effectively reduces the torque and flux ripples at low switching frequency, compared with Fuzzy Logic DTC and The Conventional DTC.
Application of gabor transform in the classification of myoelectric signalTELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
In recent day, Electromyography (EMG) signal are widely applied in myoelectric control. Unfortunately, most of studies focused on the classification of EMG signals based on healthy subjects. Due to the lack of study in amputee subject, this paper aims to investigate the performance of healthy and amputee subjects for the classification of multiple hand movement types. In this work, Gabor transform (GT) is used to transform the EMG signal into time-frequency representation. Five time-frequency features are extracted from GT coefficient. Feature extraction is an effective way to reduce the dimensionality, as well as keeping the valuable information. Two popular classifiers namely k-nearest neighbor (KNN) and support vector machine (SVM) are employed for performance evaluation. The developed system is evaluated using the EMG data acquired from the publicy available NinaPro Database. The results revealed that the extracting GT features can achieve promising performance in the classification of EMG signals.
This document will examine issues pertaining to feature extraction, classification and prediction. It will
consider the application of these techniques to unlabelled Electroencephalogram (E.E.G.) data in an
attempt to discriminate between left and right hand imagery movements
SUITABLE MOTHER WAVELET SELECTION FOR EEG SIGNALS ANALYSIS: FREQUENCY BANDS D...sipij
Wavelet transform (WT) is a powerful modern tool for time-frequency analysis of non-stationary signals such as electroencephalogram (EEG). The aim of this study is to choose the best and suitable mother wavelet function (MWT) for analyzing normal, seizure-free and seizured EEG signals. Several MWTs can be used, but the best MWT is the one that conserves the quasi-totality of information of the original signal on wavelet coefficients and gather more EEG rhythms in terms of frequency. In this study, Daubechies, Symlets and Coiflets orthogonal families were used as bsis mother wavelet functions. The percentage rootmeans square difference (PRD), the signal to noise ratio (SNR) and the simulated frequencies as the selection metrics. Simulation results indicate Daubechies wavelet at level 4 (Db4) as the most suitable MWT for EEG frequency bands decomposition.Furthermore, due to the redundancy of the extracted features, linear discriminant analysis (LDA) is applied for feature selection. Scatter plot showed that the selected feature vector represents the amount of changes in frequency distribution and carries most of the discriminative and representative information about their classes. Then, this study can provide a reference for the selection of a suitable MWT and discriminativefeatures.
Implementation and design of new low-cost foot pressure sensor module using p...IJECEIAES
Basically, human can sense the active body force trough the soles of their feet and can feel the position vector of zero moment point (ZMP) based on the center of pressure (CoP) from active body force. This behavior is adapted by T-FLoW humanoid robot using unique sensor which is piezoelectric sensor. Piezoelectric sensor has a characteristic which is non-continuous reading (record a data only a moment). Because of it, this sensor cannot be used to stream data such as flex sensor, loadcell sensor, and torque sensor like previous research. Therefore, the piezoelectric sensor still can be used to measure the position vector of ZMP. The idea is using this sensor in a special condition which is during landing condition. By utilizing 6 unit of piezoelectric sensor with a certain placement, the position vector of ZMP (X-Y-axis) and pressure value in Z-axis from action body force can be found. The force resultant method is used to find the position vector of ZMP from each piezoelectric sensor. Based on those final conclusions in each experiment, the implementation of foot pressure sensor modul using piezoelectric sensor has a good result (94%) as shown in final conclusions in each experiment. The advantages of this new foot pressure sensor modul is low-cost design and similar result with another sensor. The disadvantages of this sensor are because of the main characteristic of piezoelectric sensor (non-continuous read) sometimes the calculation has outlayer data.

A new approach for Reducing Noise in ECG signal employing Gradient Descent Me...paperpublications3
Abstract: ECG is the main tool used by the physicians for identifying and for interpretation of Heart condition. The ECG should be free from noise and of good quality for the correct diagnosis. In real time situations ECG are corrupted by many types of noises. The high frequency noise is one of them. In this thesis, analysis has been carried out the use of neural network for denoising the ECG signal. A multilayer artificial neural network (ANN) is designed. Here gradient descent method (GDM) is used for training of artificial neural network. The noisy ECG signal is given as input to the neural network. The output of neural network is compared with De-noised(original) ECG signal and value of Root Mean Square Error(RMSE) is computed. In training process the weights are updated until the value of RMSE is minimized. Several iteration has to be performed in order to find Minimum Mean Square Error(MMSE). At MMSE network weights are finalized. Subsequently, network parameters are used for Noise reduction. The comparison with other technique shows that the neural networks method is able to better preserve the signal waveform at system output with reduced noise. Our results shows better accuracy in terms of parameters root mean square error, signal to noise ratio and smoothness (RMSE,SNR and R) as compare to GOWT[18].The database has been collected from MIT-BIH arrhythmias database.
ENERGY COMPUTATION FOR BCI USING DCT AND MOVING AVERAGE WINDOW FOR NOISE SMOO...IJCSEA Journal
Brain computer interface (BCI) is a fast evolving field of research enabling computers and machines to be directly controlled by the human neural system. This enables people with muscular disability to directly control machines using their thought process. The brain signals are recorded using Electroencephalography (EEG) and patterns extracted so that the BCI system should be able to classify various patterns of brain signal accurately to perform different tasks. The raw EEG signal contains different kinds of interference waveforms (artifacts) and noise. Thus raw signals cannot be directly used for classification, the EEG signals has to undergo preprocessing, to remove artifacts and to extract the right attributes for classification. In this paper it is proposed to extract the energies in the EEG signal and classify the signal using Naïve Bayes and Instance based learners. The proposed method performs well for the two class problem in the multiple datasets used..
OFFLINE SPIKE DETECTION USING TIME DEPENDENT ENTROPY ijbesjournal
Analysis of the neuronal activities is essential in studying nervous system mechanisms.True interpretation of such mechanisms relies on the detection of the neuronal activities, which appear as action potentials or spikes in recorded neural data. So far several algorithms have been developed for spike detection. In this paper such issue is addressed using entropy measures.Transient events like spikes affect the entropy content of a signal. Thus, a time-dependent entropy framework can be used for spike detection where the entropy of each windowed segment of neural data is computed based on a generalized form of entropy. Detection method is tested on different signal to noise ratios. The results show that the time-dependent entropy method in comparison with available methods enables us to detect spikes in their exact time of occurrence with relatively lower false alarm rate.

environment for practical multi-area cases with tie line constraints. Our objective is to generate allocation
to the power generators in such a manner that the total fuel cost is minimized while all operating
constraints are satisfied. This problem is NP-hard. In this paper, we propose Hybrid Particle Swarm
Optimization (HGAPSO) to solve MAEDP. The experimental results are reported to show the efficiency of
proposed algorithms compared to Particle Swarm Optimization with Time-Varying Acceleration
Coefficients (PSO-TVAC) and RCGA.
Solving the associated weakness of biogeography based optimization algorithmijsc
Biogeography-based optimization (BBO) is a new population-based evolutionary algorithm and is based on an old theory of island biogeography that explains the geographical distribution of biological organisms. BBO was introduced in 2008 and then a lot of modifications and hybridizations were employed to enhance its performance. The researchers found that the original version of BBO has some weakness on its exploration. This paper tries to solve the root problems itself instead of solving its effect by using different techniques. It proposes two modifications; firstly, modifying the probabilistic selection process of the migration and mutation stages to give a fairly randomized selection for all the features of the islands. Secondly, the clear duplication process, which is located after the mutation stage, is sized to avoid any corruption on the suitability index variables of the non-mutated islands. The proposed modifications are extensively tested on 120 test functions with different dimensions and complexities. The results proved that the BBO performance can be enhanced effectively without embedding any additional sub-algorithm, and without using any complicated form of the immigration and emigration rates. In addition, the new BBO algorithm requires less CPU time and becomes even faster than the original simplified partial migration-based BBO. These essential modifications have to be considered as an initial step for any other modifications.
METAHEURISTIC OPTIMIZATION ALGORITHM FOR THE SYNCHRONIZATION OF CHAOTIC MOBIL...ijsc
We provide a scheme for the synchronization of two chaotic mobile robots when a mismatch between the
parameter values of the systems to be synchronized is present. We have shown how meta-heuristic
optimization can be used to adapt the parameters in two coupled systems such that the two systems are
synchronized, although their behavior is chaotic and they have started with different initial conditions and
parameter settings. The controlled system synchronizes its dynamics with the control signal in the periodic
as well as chaotic regimes. The method can be seen also as another way of controlling the chaotic
behavior of a coupled system. In the case of coupled chaotic systems, under the interaction between them,
their chaotic dynamics can be cooperatively self-organized. A synergistic approach to meta-heuristic
optimization search algorithm is developed. To avoid being trapped into local optimum and to enrich the
searching behavior, chaotic dynamics is incorporated into the proposed search algorithm. A chaotic Levy
flight is firstly incorporated in the proposed search algorithm for efficiently generating new solutions. And
secondly, chaotic sequence and a psychology factor of emotion are introduced for move acceptance in the
search algorithm. We illustrate the application of the algorithm by estimating the complete parameter
vector of a chaotic mobile robot.
In order to cope with real-world problems more effectively, we tend to design a decision support system for tuberculosis bacterium class identification. In this paper, we are concerned to propose a fuzzy diagnosability approach, which takes value between {0, 1} and based on observability of events, we
formalized the construction of diagnoses that are used to perform diagnosis. In particular, we present a
framework of the fuzzy expert system; discuss the suitability of artificial intelligence as a novel soft paradigm and reviews work from the literature for the development of a medical diagnostic system. The newly proposed approach allows us to deal with problems of diagnosability for both crisp and fuzzy value of input data. Accuracy analysis of designed decision support system based on demographic data was done
by comparing expert knowledge and system generated response. This basic emblematic approach using
fuzzy inference system is presented that describes a technique to forecast the existence of bacterium and
provides support platform to pulmonary researchers in identifying the ailment effectively.
Recently, many studies are carried out with inspirations from ecological phenomena for developing
optimization techniques. The new algorithm that is motivated by a common phenomenon in agriculture is
colonization of invasive weeds. In this paper, a modified invasive weed optimization (IWO) algorithm is
presented for optimization of multiobjective flexible job shop scheduling problems (FJSSPs) with the
criteria to minimize the maximum completion time (makespan), the total workload of machines and the
workload of the critical machine. IWO is a bio-inspired metaheuristic that mimics the ecological behaviour
of weeds in colonizing and finding suitable place for growth and reproduction. IWO is developed to solve
continuous optimization problems that’s why the heuristic rule the Smallest Position Value (SPV) is used to
convert the continuous position values to the discrete job sequences. The computational experiments show
that the proposed algorithm is highly competitive to the state-of-the-art methods in the literature since it is
able to find the optimal and best-known solutions on the instances studied.
In this study the controller for three tank multi loop system is designed using coefficient Diagram
method. Coefficient Diagram Method is one of the polynomial methods in control design. The
controller designed by using CDM technique is based on the coefficients of the characteristics
polynomial of the closed loop system according to the convenient performance such as equivalent
time constant, stability indices and stability limit. Controller is designed for the three tank process
by using CDM Techniques; the simulation results show that the proposed control strategies have
good set point tracking and better response capability.
Soft computing is likely to play aprogressively important role in many applications including image enhancement. The paradigm for soft computing is the human mind. The soft computing critique has been particularly strong with fuzzy logic. The fuzzy logic is facts representationas a
rule for management of uncertainty. Inthis paperthe Multi-Dimensional optimized problem is addressed by discussing the optimal thresholding usingfuzzyentropyfor Image enhancement. This technique is compared with bi-level and multi-level thresholding and obtained optimal
thresholding values for different levels of speckle noisy and low contrasted images. The fuzzy entropy method has produced better results compared to bi-level and multi-level thresholding techniques.
Broad phoneme classification using signal based featuresijsc
Speech is the most efficient and popular means of human communication Speech is produced as a sequence
of phonemes. Phoneme recognition is the first step performed by automatic speech recognition system. The
state-of-the-art recognizers use mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCC) features derived through short
time analysis, for which the recognition accuracy is limited. Instead of this, here broad phoneme
classification is achieved using features derived directly from the speech at the signal level itself. Broad
phoneme classes include vowels, nasals, fricatives, stops, approximants and silence. The features identified
useful for broad phoneme classification are voiced/unvoiced decision, zero crossing rate (ZCR), short time
energy, most dominant frequency, energy in most dominant frequency, spectral flatness measure and first
three formants. Features derived from short time frames of training speech are used to train a multilayer
feedforward neural network based classifier with manually marked class label as output and classification
accuracy is then tested. Later this broad phoneme classifier is used for broad syllable structure prediction
which is useful for applications such as automatic speech recognition and automatic language
identification.
The increasing popularity of animes makes it vulnerable to unwanted usages like copyright violations and
pornography. That’s why, we need to develop a method to detect and recognize animation characters. Skin
detection is one of the most important steps in this way. Though there are some methods to detect human
skin color, but those methods do not work properly for anime characters. Anime skin varies greatly from
human skin in color, texture, tone and in different kinds of lighting. They also vary greatly among
themselves. Moreover, many other things (for example leather, shirt, hair etc.), which are not skin, can
have color similar to skin. In this paper, we have proposed three methods that can identify an anime
character’s skin more successfully as compared with Kovac, Swift, Saleh and Osman methods, which are
primarily designed for human skin detection. Our methods are based on RGB values and their comparative
relations.
A new design reuse approach for voip implementation into fpsocs and asicsijsc
The aim of this paper is to present a new design reuse approach for automatic generation of Voice over Internet protocol (VOIP) hardware description and implementation into FPSOCs and ASICs. Our motivation behind this work is justified by the following arguments: first, VOIP based System on chip (SOC) implementation is an emerging research and development area, where innovative applications can be implemented. Second, these systems are very complex and due to time to market pressure, there is a need to built platforms that help the designer to explore with different architectural possibilities and choose the circuit that best correspond to the specifications. Third, we aim to develop in hardware, design, methods and tools that are used in software like the MATLAB tool for VOIP implementation. To achieve our goal, the proposed design approach is based on a modular design of the VOIP architecture. The originality of our approach is the application of the design for reuse (DFR) and the design with reuse (DWR) concepts. To validate the approach, a case study of a SOC based on the OR1K processor is studied. We demonstrate that the proposed SoC architecture is reconfigurable, scalable and the final RTL code can be reused for any FPSOC or ASIC technology. As an example, Performances measures, in the VIRTEX-5 FPGA device family, and ASIC 65nm technology are shown through this paper.
Integrating vague association mining with markov modelijsc
The increasing demand of World Wide Web raises the need of predicting the user’s web page request. The
most widely used approach to predict the web pages is the pattern discovery process of Web usage mining.
This process involves inevitability of many techniques like Markov model, association rules and clustering.
Fuzzy theory with different techniques has been introduced for the better results. Our focus is on Markov
models. This paper is introducing the vague Rules with Markov models for more accuracy using the vague
set theory.
EXPLORING SOUND SIGNATURE FOR VEHICLE DETECTION AND CLASSIFICATION USING ANNijsc
This paper attempts to explore the possibility of using sound signatures for vehicle detection and
classification purposes. Sound emitted by vehicles are captured for a two lane undivided road carrying
moderate traffic. Simultaneous arrival of different types vehicles, overtaking at the study location, sound of
horns, random but identifiable back ground noises, continuous high energy noises on the back ground are
the different challenges encountered in the data collection. Different features were explored out of which
smoothed log energy was found to be useful for automatic vehicle detection by locating peaks. Melfrequency
ceptral coefficients extracted from fixed regions around the detected peaks along with the
manual vehicle labels are utilised to train an Artificial Neural Network (ANN). The classifier for four
broad classes heavy, medium, light and horns was trained. The ANN classifier developed was able to
predict categories well.
PRIVACY ENHANCEMENT OF NODE IN OPPORTUNISTIC NETWORK BY USING VIRTUAL-IDijsc
An entrepreneurial system is one of the sort of remote system. Delay resistance system is correspondence

long we can't evaluate or anticipate the time until we get the message. There is a security issue in these
sorts of system. In this paper we will proposed another procedure which will expand the protection of the

A reliable gait features are required to extract the gait sequences from an images. In this paper suggested a
simple method for gait identification which is based on moments. Moment values are extracted on different
number of frames of Gray Scale and Silhouette images of CASIA database. These moment values are
considered as feature values. Fuzzy logic and Nearest Neighbor Classifier are used for classification. Both
achieved higher recognition.
Classical methods for classification of pixels in multispectral images include supervised classifiers such as
the maximum-likelihood classifier, neural network classifiers, fuzzy neural networks, support vector
machines, and decision trees. Recently, there has been an increase of interest in ensemble learning – a
method that generates many classifiers and aggregates their results. Breiman proposed Random Forestin
2001 for classification and clustering. Random Forest grows many decision trees for classification. To
classify a new object, the input vector is run through each decision tree in the forest. Each tree gives a
classification. The forest chooses the classification having the most votes. Random Forest provides a robust
algorithm for classifying large datasets. The potential of Random Forest is not been explored in analyzing
multispectral satellite images. To evaluate the performance of Random Forest, we classified multispectral
images using various classifiers such as the maximum likelihood classifier, neural network, support vector
machine (SVM), and Random Forest and compare their results.
Fault diagnosis of a high voltage transmission line using waveform matching a...ijsc
This paper is based on the problem of accurate fault diagnosis by incorporating a waveform matching technique. Fault isolation and detection of a double circuit high voltage power transmission line is of immense importance from point of view of Energy Management services. Power System Fault types namely single line to ground faults, line to line faults, double line to ground faults etc. are responsible for transients in current and voltage waveforms in Power Systems. Waveform matching deals with the approximate superimposition of such waveforms in discretized versions obtained from recording devices and Software respectively. The analogy derived from these waveforms is obtained as an error function of voltage and current, from the considered metering devices. This assists in modelling the fault identification as an optimization problem of minimizing the error between these sets of waveforms. In other words, it utilizes the benefit of software discrepancies between these two waveforms. Analysis has been done using the Bare Bones Particle Swarm Optimizer on an IEEE 2 bus, 6 bus and 14 bus system. The performance of the algorithm has been compared with an analogous meta-heuristic algorithm called BAT optimization on a 2 bus level. The primary focus of this paper is to demonstrate the efficiency of such methods and state the common peculiarities in measurements, and the possible remedies for such distortions.

CLASSIFICATION OF ECG ARRHYTHMIAS USING /DISCRETE WAVELET TRANSFORM AND NEURA...IJCSEA Journal
Automatic recognition of cardiac arrhythmias is important for diagnosis of cardiac abnormalies. Several algorithms have been proposed to classify ECG arrhythmias; however, they cannot perform very well. Therefore, in this paper, an expert system for ElectroCardioGram (ECG) arrhythmia classification is proposed. Discrete wavelet transform is used for processing ECG recordings, and extracting some features, and the Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) neural network performs the classification task. Two types of arrhythmias can be detected by the proposed system. Some recordings of the MIT-BIH arrhythmias database have been used for training and testing our neural network based classifier. The simulation results show that the classification accuracy of our algorithm is 96.5% using 10 files including normal and two arrhythmias.
A comparative study of wavelet families for electromyography signal classific...journalBEEI
Automatic detection of neuromuscular disorders performed using electromyography (EMG) has become an interesting domain for many researchers. In this paper, we present an approach to evaluate and classify the non-stationary EMG signals based on discrete wavelet transform (DWT). Most often researches did not consider the effect of DWT factors on the performance of EMG signals classification. This problem is still an interesting unsolved challenge. However, the selection of appropriate mother wavelet and related level decomposition is an essential issue that should be addressed in DWT-based EMG signals classification. The proposed method consists of decomposing a raw EMG signal into different sub-bands. Several statistical features were extracted from each sub-band and six wavelet families were investigated. The feature vector was used as inputs to support vector machine (SVM) classifier for the diagnosis of neuromuscular disorders. The obtained results achieve satisfactory performances with optimal DWT factors using 10-fold cross-validation. From the classification performances, it was found that sym14 is the most suitable mother wavelet at the 8th optimal wavelet level of decomposition. These simulation results demonstrated that the proposed method is very reliable for reducing cost computational time of automated neuromuscular disorders system and removing the redundancy information.

Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition: An adaptive method for noise reductionIOSR Journals
Abstract:Empirical mode decomposition (EMD), a data analysis technique, is used to denoise non-stationary and non-linear processes.

So to overcome this problem a new method known as Ensemble Empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) has been introduced. The presented paper gives the detail of EEMD and its application in various fields. EEMD is a time–space analysis method, in which the added white noise is averaged out with sufficient number of trials; and the averaging process results in only the component of the signal (original data). EEMD is a truly noise-assisted data analysis (NADA) method and represents a substantial improvement over the original EMD.

Application of Hilbert-Huang Transform in the Field of Power Quality Events A...idescitation
This paper deals with the analysis of PQ
abnormalities using Hilbert–Huang Transform (HHT). HHT
can be applied to both non-stationary as well as non-linear
signals and it provides the energy-frequency-time
representation of the signal. HHT is a time–frequency analysis
method having low order of complexity and does not include
the frequency resolution and time resolution fundamentals.
So, it has the potential to outperform the frequency resolution
and time resolution based methods. Several cases have been
considered to present the efficiency of HHT. For the case
study, various PQ abnormalities like voltage sag, swell and
harmonics with sag are considered. These PQ abnormalities
are subjected to HHT and the results are shown in the form of
IMFs, instantaneous frequency, absolute value, phase and
Hilbert Huang Spectrum. The results shows that the HHT
performs better than the any other time resolution and
frequency resolution based methods.
Performance Comparison of Known ICA Algorithms to a Wavelet-ICA MergerCSCJournals
Electroencephalogram (EEG) is useful for biological research and clinical diagnosis. These signals are however contaminated with artifacts which must be removed to have pure EEG signals. These artifacts can be removed by using Independent Component Analysis (ICA). In this paper we studied the performance of three ICA algorithms (FastICA, JADE, and Radical) as well as our newly developed ICA technique which utilizes wavelet transform. Comparing these ICA algorithms, it is observed that our new technique performs as well as these algorithms at denoising EEG signals.
Analysis of Butterworth and Chebyshev Filters for ECG Denoising Using WaveletsIOSR Journals
Abstract: A wide area of research has been done in the field of noise removal in Electrocardiogram signals.. Electrocardiograms (ECG) play an important role in diagnosis process and providing information regarding heart diseases. In this paper, we propose a new method for removing the baseline wander interferences, based on discrete wavelet transform and Butterworth/Chebyshev filtering. The ECG data is taken from non-invasive fetal electrocardiogram database, while noise signal is generated and added to the original signal using instructions in MATLAB environment. Our proposed method is a hybrid technique, which combines Daubechies wavelet decomposition and different thresholding techniques with Butterworth or Chebyshev filter. DWT has good ability to decompose the signal and wavelet thresholding is good in removing noise from decomposed signal. Filtering is done for improved denoising performence. Here quantitative study of result evaluation has been done between Butterworth and Chebyshev filters based on minimum mean squared error (MSE), higher values of signal to interference ratio and peak signal to noise ratio in MATLAB environment using wavelet and signal processing toolbox. The results proved that the denoised signal using Butterworth filter has a better balance between smoothness and accuracy than the Chebvshev filter.

Stroke patients require a long recovery. One success of the treatment given is the evaluation and
monitoring during recovery. One device for monitoring the development of post-stroke patients is
Electroencephalogram (EEG). This research proposed a method for extracting variables of EEG signals for
post-stroke patient analysis using Wavelet and Self-Organizing Map Kohonen clustering. EEG signal was
extracted by Wavelet to obtain Alpha, beta, theta, gamma, and Mu waves. These waves, the amplitude
and asymmetric of the symmetric channel pairs are features in Self Organizing Map Kohonen Clustering.
Clustering results were compared with actual clusters of post-stroke and no-stroke subjects to extract
significant variable. These results showed that the configuration of Alpha, Beta, and Mu waves, amplitude
together with the difference between the variable of symmetric channel pairs are significant in the analysis
of post-stroke patients. The results gave using symmetric channel pairs provided 54-74% accuracy.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

1. INTRODUCTION
Epilepsy is a neurological disorder with wide prevalence of about 1 to 2% of the world’s
population[1][2] .It is characterized by sudden recurrent and transient disturbances of perception
or behavior resulting from excessive synchronization of cortical neuronal networks; it is a
neurological condition in which an individual experiences chronic abnormal bursts of electrical
discharges in the brain. The hallmark of epilepsy is recurrent seizures termed epileptic seizures.
Epileptic seizures are divided by their clinical manifestation into partial or focal, generalized,
unilateral and unclassified seizures Focal epileptic seizures involve only part of cerebral
hemisphere and produce symptoms in corresponding parts of the body or in some related mental
functions. Generalized epileptic seizures involve the entire brain and produce bilateral motor
symptoms usually with loss of consciousness. Both types of epileptic seizures can occur at all
ages. Generalized epileptic seizures can be subdivided into absence (petit mal) and tonic-colonic
(grand mal) seizures Monitoring brain activity through the electroencephalogram (EEG) has
become an important tool in the diagnosis of epilepsy. The recorded EEG data are often distorted
by other signals, called artifacts, whose origins are either of physiological or technical nature.
There have been proposed many techniques to identify, separate, and suppressthese artifacts from
the EEG signals. One of the most common techniques used for that purpose is Independent

Analysis (ICA) However, ICA does not work well for highly non-stationary artifacts such as
muscle artifacts. Several Time-frequency methods have been proposed for the detection and
classification of seizures, most notably the Wavelet transform. These are non-stationary
methods[4]. In parallel ,probabilistic methods such as various entropies, fractal dimensions,
lyapunov exponents have been utilized. The above mentioned techniques are non linear[5].
In 1998, Norden E. Huang et al. proposed a new method for analyzing non-stationary data [3][6].
This technique is known as the Huang-Hilbert transform (HHT). The HHT uses a novel
prepossessing algorithm, the Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD), to decompose an arbitrary
signal into a sum of so-called Intrinsic Mode Functions (IMF’s) and a residue[8]. Based on the
inherent characteristics of the IMF’s ,the EMD can be used for denoising and detrending
purposes. In order to denoise the signals, it has been suggested in to remove the IMF’s that are
considered to be dominated by noise[9][10]. In this paper we propose a new method which selects
the IMF's which were based on the weighted mean Frequency(MF) of each IMF's. From the
selected IMF's features are extracted, and these features are classified using Neural Networks.
EEG data considered for this work is obtained from University of Bonn EEG database which is
available in public domain containing three different cases: 1) healthy, 2) epileptic subjects
during seizure-free interval (interictal), 3) epileptic subjects during seizure interval (ictal) [7].
Each set contains 100 single channel EEG segments of 23.6 sec duration. Sampling frequency is
173.61 Hz, so each segment contains N =4096 samples . All these EEG segments are recorded
with the same 128- channel system and that are digitized by 12 bit A/D convertor.
The HHT consists of two parts: empirical mode decomposition (EMD) and Hilbert spectral
analysis (HSA). This method is potentially viable for nonlinear and nonstationary data analysis,
especially for time frequency energy representations. The physically meaningful way to describe
such a system is in terms of the instantaneous frequency, which will reveal the intra-wave
frequency modulations. The easiest way to compute the instantaneous frequency is by using the
Hilbert transform. In a time time series, it is possible to define an analytic signal using hilbert
transform which constitues the imaginary part Its amplitude and phase is time dependent. For this
reason, three new concepts were introduced, the instantaneous amplitude and the phase functions.
The time derivative of phase function is called instantaneous frequency function. Even with the
Hilbert transform, defining the instantaneous frequency still involves considerable controversy. It
would lead to the problem of having frequency values being all equally likely to be positive and
negative for any given time series (positive or negative energy). As a result, the past applications
of the Hilbert transform are all limited to the narrow band-passed signals, which have with the
same number of extreme values and zero crossings. But filtering is a linear operation, altering its
harmonics and creating a distortion of the waveform. To avoid this situation, before Hilbert
transform it is necessary to use the so called empirical mode decomposition (EMD) introduced by
N.Huang in 1998[3]. Table-1 provides the comparisons of transformation.

This is an adaptive method, with posterior defined basis from the decomposition ,By definition,
an Intrinsic Mode functions satisfies two conditions. These are: a) The number of extrema and the
number of zero crossings may differ by no more than one b) The local average defined by the
average of the maximum and minimum envelopes is zero.

TABLE 1:COMPARISON BETWEEN FOURIER, WAVELET AND HHT
Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD)
The basic idea of EMD is that each time series consists of different simple intrinsic modes of
oscillations. Each intrinsic mode, linear or nonlinear, represents a simple oscillation, which will
have the same number of extreme values and zero-crossings and the oscillation will also be
symmetric with respect to the ‘local mean’. These functions are the mono-components or the
intrinsic mode functions (IMF). The process of acquiring the IMF’s is called sifting and it's
described below
1.Identify all the maxima and minima of x(t)
2. Generate its upper and lower envelopes, X up (t) and
X low (t) with cubic spline interpolation
3.Calculate the point-by-point mean from the upper and lower envelopes, by using m(t)=(X up (t)
+X low (t)) /2.
4. Extract the detail, d(t) = x(t) – m(t)
5. Test the following two conditions of d(t):a) if d(t) meets the two conditions related to the IMF
definition (mentioned previously), an IMF is derived.
Replace x(t) with the residual r(t) = x(t) – d(t);b) if d(t) is not an IMF, replace x(t) withd(t), and
6. Repeat steps 1 to 5 until a monotonic residual, or a single maximum or minimum residual
satisfying fallowing stopping criterion.

where N is the number of intrinsic modes,r N (t) denote s the final residue, which can be
interpreted as the DC component of the signal.C j (t) are he intrinsic modes, orthogonal to each
other and all have zero means. The decomposed signal shown in Fig 1

At the end of this process, the signal x(t) can be expressed as follows:

Now, Hilbert Transform can be applied to every single intrinsic function.
Hilbert Transform
Given a real signal x(t),its complex representation is
where xH (t) is the Hilbert transform of x(t), given by
with P the Cauchy principal value of the integral. Equation (2) can be rewritten in an exponential
form as
where w(t) is the instantaneous angular frequency, which bydefinition is the time derivative of the
instantaneous angle.

The median absolute deviation is the mean of the absolute deviations of a set of data about the
data's mean. For a sample size N and the mean distribution x, the median absolute deviation is
defined by(MAD)

Table -2 Mean Frequency of IMF's of seizure and non seizure EEG
The mean weighted frequency suggest that the IMF's numbered one to four is useful to
discriminate the seizure and non seizure data. IMF-1 is having high frequency oscillations and
artifacts.We are considering IMF's numbered 2 to 4 for the following features;1.Mean weighted
frequency;2. Rate of change of envelope amplitude;3 Inter quartile range ;4. Mean absolute
deviation.These features are extracted from selected IMF's. From each epoch of 5s duration;12
features extracted. Seizure data of 400 epochs and non seizure data of 400 epochs are considered.
These features are applied to a Neural network with 12 input neurons, one output neuron and one
hidden layer. We used the Feed Forward Back propagation algorithm.following.

From TABLE 3, it is observed that sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of the proposed method is
superior. The experimental results for both EEG data, therefore, confirm that the proposed
method is well organized and attains a reasonable dominance with respect to classification
accuracy. We believe that the proposed system can be very helpful to the physicians for their final
decision on their patient's treatments. By using such an efficient tool, they can make very accurate
decisions.
Seizure and non seizure EEG signals are analyzed in this paper. Empirical mode decomposition
method used to Extract IMF's. Based on mean weighted Frequency ,we selected IMF's for feature
Extraction. The extracted features are classified using neural network. The proposed techniques in
this paper are used for EEG signal processing to come up with a new original tool that gives
physicians the possibility to diagnose brain functionality abnormalities. The proposed system
bears the potential of providing several credible benefits such as fast diagnosis, high accuracy,
good sensitivity and specificity.
To establish the clinical use for this seizure detection scheme it is necessary to test on out of
sample data sets. Papers in this format must not exceed twenty (20) pages in length. Papers
should be submitted to the secretary AIRCC. Papers for initial consideration may be submitted in
either .doc or .pdf format. Final, camera-ready versions should take into account referees’
suggested amendments.
