Methodology and validation for identifying gait type using machine learning on IMU data.

Journal of medical engineering & technology Apr 30, 2019
With the rising popularity of activity tracking, there is a desire to not only count the number of steps a person takes, but also identify the type of step (e.g., walking or running) they are taking. For rehabilitation and athletic training, this dif...

Phonocardiogram classification using deep neural networks and weighted probability comparisons.

Journal of medical engineering & technology Feb 18, 2019
Cardiac auscultation is one of the most conventional approaches for the initial assessment of heart disease, however the technique is highly user-dependent and with low repeatability. Several computational approaches based on the analysis of the phon...

Epileptic seizure detection using DWT-based approximate entropy, Shannon entropy and support vector machine: a case study.

Journal of medical engineering & technology Dec 18, 2017
In this work, we have used a time-frequency domain analysis method called discrete wavelet transform (DWT) technique. This method stand out compared to other proposed methods because of its algorithmic elegance and accuracy. A wavelet is a mathematic...
