Prony's method is found to be a very effective method for the analysis-synthesis of transient data. However, straightforward application of this method can lead to poor performance, especially for short and noisy data records. The authors present a new over-determined forward-backward Prony method (MFBPM) and its application to the analysis of the first and second heart sounds. The accuracy of the method is measured using both cross-correlation and the normalised-mean-square-error (NMRSE) between a real signal and a synthetic one. Results from more than 80 different subjects show that the MFBPM is highly stable and gives very good performance with an average cross-correlation coefficient of 99.62%. Comparison of the results based on the NMRSE criterion show that the MFBPM is more precise than the modified backward Prony method (MBPM) with an accuracy improvement of upto 10%, and upto 20%, when compared with the conventional forward-backward Prony method (FBPM). Furthermore, a new method for dynamic estimation of model order is proposed for the case of heart sounds based on a subset of synthesised heart sounds which best approximates the observed data using NMRSE 相似文献

The determination of diagnostic features in recorded heart sounds was investigated with Carpentier-Edwards (CE) bioprosthetic valves. Morphological features, extracted using the Choi-Williams distribution, achieved between 96 and 61% correct classification. The time-scale wavelet-transform feature set achieved 100% correct classification with native valve populations, and 87% with the CE replacements 相似文献

Previous studies have indicated that diastolic heart sounds may contain information useful in the detection of occluded coronary arteries. In this study, recordings of diastolic heart sound segments were modeled by autoregressive (AR) methods including the adaptive recursive least-square lattice (RLSL) and the gradient lattice predictor (GAL). Application of the Akaike criterion demonstrated that between 5 and 15 AR coefficients are required to completely describe a diastolic segment. The reflection coefficients, prediction coefficients, zeros of the polynomial of the inverse filter, and the AR spectrum were determined over a number (N = 20-30) of diastolic segments. Preliminary results indicate that the averaged AR spectrum and the zeros of the inverse filter polynomial can be used to distinguish between normal patients and those with coronary artery disease. 相似文献

The separation of pathological discontinuous adventitious sounds (DAS) from vesicular sounds (VS) is of great importance to the analysis of lung sounds since DAS are related to certain pulmonary pathologies. An automated way of revealing the diagnostic character of DAS, by isolating them from VS, based on their nonstationarity, is presented. The proposed algorithm uses two adaptive network-based fuzzy inference systems to compose a generalized fuzzy rule-based stationary-nonstationary filter (GFST-NST). The training procedure of the fuzzy inference systems involves the outputs of the wavelet transform-based stationary-nonstationary filter (WTST-NST), proposed by Hadjileontiadis and Panas (1997). The basic idea of the GFST-NST was initially proposed by the authors with the introduction of the fuzzy rule-based stationary-nonstationary filter (FST-NST) (1997), tested with the separation of crackles from VS. The main contribution of this paper is the modification of the structure of the FST-NST filter to a serial-type fuzzy filter that, unlike the parallel operation of the FST-NST filter, sends a predicted stationary signal (VS) into the predictor of the nonstationary (DAS). Applying the GFST-NST filter to fine-coarse crackles and squawks, selected from three lung sound databases, the coherent structure of DAS is revealed and they are separated from VS. The separation performance of the GFST-NST filter was evaluated through quantitative and qualitative indexes that proved its efficiency and superiority against the FST-NST filter. When compared to the WTST-NST filter, the GFST-NST filter performed similarly in accuracy and objectiveness, but in a faster way. Thus, the GFST-NST filter combines the separation accuracy of the WTST-NST filter with the real-time implementation of the FST-NST filter, so it can easily be used in clinical medicine as a module of an integrated intelligent patient evaluation system 相似文献

The diagnostic performance of two pattern recognition methods (or classifiers) to detect valvular degeneration was evaluated in 48 patients with a porcine bioprosthetic heart valve inserted in the mitral position. Twenty patients had a normal porcine bioprosthetic valve and 28 patients had a degenerated bioprosthetic valve. One method was based on the Gaussian-Bayes model and the second on the "nearest neighbor" algorithm using three distance measurements. Eighteen diagnostic features were extracted from the sound spectrum of each patient and, for each method, a two-class supervised learning approach was used to determine the most discriminant diagnostic patterns composed of 6 features or less. The probability of error of the classifiers was estimated with the leave-one-out approach. The performance of each method to discriminate between normal and degenerated bioprosthetic valves was verified by clinical evaluation of the valves. The best performance in evaluation of the sound spectrum (98% correct classifications) was obtained with the Bayes classifier and two patterns of six features each. The percentage of false positive classifications of valve degeneration was 0% and the percentage of false negative classifications was 4%. Sensitivity for the detection of valve degeneration was 96%, specificity was 100%, positive predictive value was 100%, and negative predictive value was 95%. The best performance of the nearest neighbor method (94% correct classifications) was obtained by using the Mahalanobis distance and five patterns composed of three, four, five, or six diagnostic features. Using a pattern composed of only three features, the percentage of false positive classifications for degeneration was 10% and the percentage of false negative classifications was 4%.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The separation of pathological discontinuous adventitious sounds (DAS) from vesicular sounds (VS) is of great importance to the analysis of lung sounds, since DAS are related to certain pulmonary pathologies. An automated way of revealing the diagnostic character of DAS by isolating them from VS, based on their nonstationarity, is presented in this paper.

Applying the WTST-NST filter to fine/coarse crackles and squawks, selected from three lung sound databases, the coherent structure of DAS is revealed and they are separated from VS. When compared to other separation tools, the WTST-NST filter performed more accurately, objectively, and with lower computational cost. Due to its simple implementation it can easily be used in clinical medicine 相似文献

Changes in electrical as well as surface composition such as chemical and electronic properties of Mg-doped p-type GaN by phosphorus implanting are systematically investigated using Hall effect and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) measurements. It is shown that p-type conductivity of Mg-doped GaN can be improved by implanting P atoms after a proper post-implantation annealing treatment, probably due to the reduction of self-compensation by P atoms substitution on N vacancy sites. XPS analysis is further found that the decrease of surface oxides and the shift of the surface Fermi level toward the valence band edge through P atoms introduced. These experimental results indicate that the P implantation is an effective method to improve p-type conductivity of Mg-doped GaN and reducing the surface barrier height, which can lead to a lower metal contact resistivity to p-type GaN. 相似文献

High-energy ion implantation is used to spatially modify the bandgap of a 1.5-/spl mu/m laser structure to fabricate a broad spectrum light emitting diode (LED). An increase in the emission full width half maximum (FWHM) from 28 nm to 90 nm is observed. An absorbing section at one end of the device is used to suppress lasing operation and remove Fabry-Perot noise. 相似文献

An efficient method for the enhancement of lung sounds (LS) and bowel sounds (BS), based on wavelet transform (WT), and fractal dimension (FD) analysis is presented in this paper. The proposed method combines multiresolution analysis with FD-based thresholding to compose a WT-FD filter, for enhanced separation of explosive LS (ELS) and BS (EBS) from the background noise. In particular, the WT-FD filter incorporates the WT-based multiresolution decomposition to initially decompose the recorded bioacoustic signal into approximation and detail space in the WT domain. Next, the FD of the derived WT coefficients is estimated within a sliding window and used to infer where the thresholding of the WT coefficients has to happen. This is achieved through a self-adjusted procedure that iteratively "peels" the estimated FD signal and isolates its peaks produced by the WT coefficients corresponding to ELS or EBS. In this way, two new signals are constructed containing the useful and the undesired WT coefficients, respectively. By applying WT-based multiresolution reconstruction to these two signals, a first version of the desired signal and the background noise is provided, accordingly. This procedure is repeated until a stopping criterion is met, finally resulting in efficient separation of the ELS or EBS from the background noise. The proposed WT-FD filter introduces an alternative way to the enhancement of bioacoustic signals, applicable to any separation problem involving nonstationary transient signals mixed with uncorrelated stationary background noise. The results from the application of the WT-FD filter to real bioacoustic data are presented and discussed in an accompanying paper. 相似文献

A form for the electric-field dyadic Green's function for free space is derived that allows explicit time evolution of the modified electric-field integral equation (EFIE) applied to surface scattering. The modified EFIE kernel, here called a "source function," has an integrable singularity in the source region, and is shown to be equivalent, in the frequency domain, to the standard dyadic Green's function. With definitions of "local" and "non-local" fields at a conductor surface, both electric and magnetic versions of the relations between non-local fields and equilibrium surface sources (currents and charges) are derived. These field-source equilibrium (FSE) relations are exact if all the non-local fields are included: the interaction fields, as well as the usual incident fields from distant sources. When the interaction fields are neglected, the magnetic-field version of the FSE relations becomes the usual physical optics approximation. Source functions and the FSE relations were used in two three-dimensional, time-domain numerical simulations to compute radiation patterns from a conical helical antenna driven at a fixed frequency, and scattering of a CW plane wave by a perfectly conducting sphere. This surface-scattering simulation was explicit but remained stable. Excellent agreement between the computed and known results validated the approach. 相似文献

This paper presents a simulation-based analog circuit synthesis methodology. Simulation-based approach is preferred so that the synthesizer, SACSES, is topology independent and requires minimal user effort. We argue that both the simulator and the search algorithm have to be optimized for analog circuit synthesis. In this regard, instead of using a commercially available simulator, an accelerated simulator, SPASE, is implemented. Various acceleration mechanisms for DC, AC and noise simulation are discussed. For example, it is shown that taking the previous DC solution as the starting point of the next DC analysis more than halves the number of iteration required for convergence. A modified version of self-adaptive evolutionary strategies, which incorporates the Metropolis criterion in the selection mechanism, is used as the search algorithm. Smooth penalty mechanisms for biasing constraints are proposed and embedded in the algorithm. Usefulness of the tool is validated by three synthesis examples. 相似文献

The application of the wavelet transform-fractal dimension-based (WT-FD) filter of Part I of this paper to real bioacoustic data, which include explosive lung sounds (ELS) and explosive bowel sounds (EBS) recorded from patients with pulmonary or gastrointestinal dysfunction, respectively, is presented in this paper. The objective of the latter is the evaluation of the performance of the WT-FD filter on different types of bioacoustic signals, varying not only in their structural morphology but also in the degree of their noise contamination. As it is thoroughly described in Part I of this paper, the WT-FD filter uses the fractal dimension to form an efficient way of thresholding the WT coefficients at different resolution scales, keeping, thus, only those that can contribute to the accurate reconstruction of the ELS and EBS signals. Quantitative and qualitative analysis of the experimental results show an efficient performance of the WT-FD filter to circumvent the noise presence (100% detectability rate, 100% sensitivity, 100% specificity) by faithfully extracting the authentic structure of ELS and EBS from the background noise. The WT-FD filter does not require any noise reference signal or noise reference templates. The results from a noise stress test (mean cross-correlation index of the original and the estimated signal converging to 100%; mean normalized maximum amplitude error converging to 0.7%) prove its robustness to various noise levels (0-20 dB), enabling its potential use in similar noise cases met in everyday clinical medicine. Furthermore, the efficient performance of the WT-FD filter facilitates the physician to better interpret the auscultation findings. Due to its simplicity and low computational cost, the WT-FD filter can possibly be implemented in a real-time context to serve as a tool for the continuous ELS and EBS screening. 相似文献

Bayesian networks are tools as they represent probability distributions as graphs. They work with uncertainties of real systems. Since last decade there is a special interest in learning network structures from data. However learning the best network structure is a NP-Hard problem, so many heuristics algorithms to generate network structures from data were created. Many of these algorithms use score metrics to generate the network model. This paper address learn the structure of ALARM pattern benchmark using K-2 algorithm and a modified MDL as score metric. Results shown that score metrics with parameters that strength the tendency to select simpler network structures are better than score metrics with weaker tendency to select simpler network structures and that modified MDL gives better results than original MDL. 相似文献

This research deals with the experimental assessment of the strength of bi-material interfaces as a function of mode mixity, focusing on two dimensional problems. A modified mixed mode bending apparatus is designed and tested, which can be used to measure small forces involved in the delamination of semiconductor packaging materials. Using this setup, it is possible to measure interface strength over nearly the full range of mode mixities using a single specimen design. A finite element model is used to determine interface strength and mode mixity. As an example, the combined numerical-experimental procedure is applied to the interface between copper lead frame (LF) and epoxy molding compound (MCE). A remarkable result is that a double cantilever beam (DCB) test of this interface does not yield the lowest possible interface strength, meaning that it can not be used as a worst case test. 相似文献

A novel technique of integrating resonant-tunneling diodes (RTDs) with pseudomorphic high-electron-mobility transistors (pHEMTs) is demonstrated. A proton was implanted through the pHEMT layers to convert the RTD structure underneath to a high-resistivity buffer without degrading the performance of the pHEMT. The cutoff frequency is 16 GHz for a 1.5-μm-gate-length pHEMT on such an implanted buffer. Substituting the conventional deep mesa etch with ion implantation maintains a highly planar surface. Such a monolithically integrated RTD/pHEMT oscillator is described 相似文献
