Supervised learning methods for pathological arterial pulse wave differentiation: A SVM and neural networks approach.

International journal of medical informatics
OBJECTIVE: The main goal of this study was to develop an automatic method based on supervised learning methods, able to distinguish healthy from pathologic arterial pulse wave (APW), and those two from noisy waveforms (non-relevant segments of the si...

Classification of cardiovascular tissues using LBP based descriptors and a cascade SVM.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Histological images have characteristics, such as texture, shape, colour and spatial structure, that permit the differentiation of each fundamental tissue and organ. Texture is one of the most discriminative features. The au...

A novel method of artery stenosis diagnosis using transfer function and support vector machine based on transmission line model: A numerical simulation and validation study.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Transfer function (TF) is an important parameter for the analysis and understanding of hemodynamics when arterial stenosis exists in human arterial tree. Aimed to validate the feasibility of using TF to diagnose arterial ste...

The impact of paracentesis flow rate in patients with liver cirrhosis on the development of paracentesis induced circulatory dysfunction.

Clinical and molecular hepatology
BACKGROUND/AIMS: Ascites is a dreadful complication of liver cirrhosis associated with short survival. Large volume paracentesis (LVP) is used to treat tense or refractory ascites. Paracentesis induced circulatory dysfunction (PICD) develops if no pl...

An automatic method for arterial pulse waveform recognition using KNN and SVM classifiers.

Medical & biological engineering & computing
The measurement and analysis of the arterial pulse waveform (APW) are the means for cardiovascular risk assessment. Optical sensors represent an attractive instrumental solution to APW assessment due to their truly non-contact nature that makes the m...

Automated extraction and labelling of the arterial tree from whole-body MRA data.

Medical image analysis
In this work, we present a fully automated algorithm for extraction of the 3D arterial tree and labelling the tree segments from whole-body magnetic resonance angiography (WB-MRA) sequences. The algorithm developed consists of two core parts (i) 3D v...

Neural network study for standardizing pulse-taking depth by the width of artery.

Computers in biology and medicine
To carry out a pulse diagnosis, a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) physician presses the patient's wrist artery at three incremental depths, namely Fu (superficial), Zhong (medium), and Chen (deep). However, the definitions of the three depths are ...

Machine Learning-Based Rapid Prediction of Torsional Performance of Personalized Peripheral Artery Stent.

International journal for numerical methods in biomedical engineering
The complex mechanical environment of peripheral arteries makes stents with poor torsional performance more prone to fracture, and stent fracture is considered a precursor to in-stent restenosis (ISR). Therefore, studying the torsional performance of...

Arterial Diameter Trend Estimation Using Deep Learning on Ultrasound Spectral Doppler.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
This study presents an approach for estimating gaps in arterial diameter using flow velocity obtained from spectral Doppler data. We utilize short-time Fourier transform in conjunction with deep learning models designed for spectrograms to estimate a...

Dark-Blood Computed Tomography Angiography Combined With Deep Learning Reconstruction for Cervical Artery Wall Imaging in Takayasu Arteritis.

Korean journal of radiology
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the image quality of novel dark-blood computed tomography angiography (CTA) imaging combined with deep learning reconstruction (DLR) compared to delayed-phase CTA images with hybrid iterative reconstruction (HIR), to visualize ...
