Intelligent recognition of electroencephalogram (EEG) signals is an important means to detect seizure. Traditional methods for recognizing epileptic EEG signals are usually based on two assumptions: 1) adequate training examples are available for mod...
OBJECTIVE: In this paper, a support vector machine (SVM) approach using statistical features, P wave absence, spectrum features, and length-adaptive entropy are presented to classify ECG rhythms as four types: normal rhythm, atrial fibrillation (AF),...
BACKGROUND: Electroencephalography (EEG) invariably contains extra-cranial artifacts that are commonly dealt with based on qualitative and subjective criteria. Failure to account for EEG artifacts compromises data interpretation.

Patient transportation in hospitals faces many challenges, including the limited manpower, work-related injuries, and low efficiency of current bed pushing methods. This paper presents a new motorized robotic bed mover with omnidirectional mobility t...
OBJECTIVE: In this paper, we propose a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based deep learning architecture for multiclass classification of obstructive sleep apnea and hypopnea (OSAH) using single-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) recordings. OSAH is the ...
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a sleep disorder caused due to interruption of breathing resulting in insufficient oxygen to the human body and brain. If the OSA is detected and treated at an early stage the possibility of severe health impairment c...
Detecting and classifying cardiac arrhythmias is critical to the diagnosis of patients with cardiac abnormalities. In this paper, a novel approach based on deep learning methodology is proposed for the classification of single-lead electrocardiogram ...
