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 ...

OBJECTIVE: Computer-aided estimation of brain connectivity aims to reveal information propagation in brain automatically, which has great potential in clinical applications, e.g., epilepsy foci diagnosis. Granger causality is an effective tool for di...
This paper presents a robust 3D point cloud registration algorithm based on bidirectional Maximum Correntropy Criterion (MCC). Comparing with traditional registration algorithm based on the mean square error (MSE), using the MCC is superior in dealin...

Traumatically brain injured (TBI) patients are at risk from secondary insults. Arterial hypotension, critically low blood pressure, is one of the most dangerous secondary insults and is related to poor outcome in patients. The overall aim of this stu...
OBJECTIVE: Constant changes in developing children's brains can pose a challenge in EEG dependant technologies. Advancing signal processing methods to identify developmental differences in paediatric populations could help improve function and usabil...

Feature of event-related potential (ERP) has not been completely understood and illiteracy problem remains unsolved. To this end, P300 peak has been used as the feature of ERP in most brain-computer interface applications, but subjects who do not sho...
The robustness of the visual system lies in its ability to perceive degraded images. This is achieved through interacting bottom-up, recurrent, and top-down pathways that process the visual input in concordance with stored prior information. The inte...
