Evaluation of extreme learning machine for classification of individual and combined finger movements using electromyography on amputees and non-amputees.

Neural networks : the official journal of the International Neural Network Society
The success of myoelectric pattern recognition (M-PR) mostly relies on the features extracted and classifier employed. This paper proposes and evaluates a fast classifier, extreme learning machine (ELM), to classify individual and combined finger mov...

Semi-supervised learning for ordinal Kernel Discriminant Analysis.

Neural networks : the official journal of the International Neural Network Society
Ordinal classification considers those classification problems where the labels of the variable to predict follow a given order. Naturally, labelled data is scarce or difficult to obtain in this type of problems because, in many cases, ordinal labels...

Combining machine learning and matching techniques to improve causal inference in program evaluation.

Journal of evaluation in clinical practice
RATIONALE, AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: Program evaluations often utilize various matching approaches to emulate the randomization process for group assignment in experimental studies. Typically, the matching strategy is implemented, and then covariate balan...

Predictive models reduce talent development costs in female gymnastics.

Journal of sports sciences
This retrospective study focuses on the comparison of different predictive models based on the results of a talent identification test battery for female gymnasts. We studied to what extent these models have the potential to optimise selection proced...

Using machine learning to model dose-response relationships.

Journal of evaluation in clinical practice
RATIONALE, AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: Establishing the relationship between various doses of an exposure and a response variable is integral to many studies in health care. Linear parametric models, widely used for estimating dose-response relationships, h...

Cascaded Adaptation Framework for Fast Calibration of Myoelectric Control.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
In spite of several decades of intensive research and development, the existing algorithms of myoelectric pattern recognition (MPR) are yet to make significant clinical and commercial impact. This study focuses on the one of the limiting factors of c...

Using machine learning to identify structural breaks in single-group interrupted time series designs.

Journal of evaluation in clinical practice
RATIONALE, AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: Single-group interrupted time series analysis (ITSA) is a popular evaluation methodology in which a single unit of observation is being studied, the outcome variable is serially ordered as a time series and the interve...

Sparse Bayesian Learning for Obtaining Sparsity of EEG Frequency Bands Based Feature Vectors in Motor Imagery Classification.

International journal of neural systems
Effective common spatial pattern (CSP) feature extraction for motor imagery (MI) electroencephalogram (EEG) recordings usually depends on the filter band selection to a large extent. Subband optimization has been suggested to enhance classification a...

Pharmaceutical Raw Material Identification Using Miniature Near-Infrared (MicroNIR) Spectroscopy and Supervised Pattern Recognition Using Support Vector Machine.

Applied spectroscopy
Near-infrared spectroscopy as a rapid and non-destructive analytical technique offers great advantages for pharmaceutical raw material identification (RMID) to fulfill the quality and safety requirements in pharmaceutical industry. In this study, we ...

Using machine learning to assess covariate balance in matching studies.

Journal of evaluation in clinical practice
In order to assess the effectiveness of matching approaches in observational studies, investigators typically present summary statistics for each observed pre-intervention covariate, with the objective of showing that matching reduces the difference ...
