Parkinson's disease (PD) is a degenerative nervous system disorder involving motor disturbances. Motor alterations affect the gait according to the progression of PD and can be used by experts in movement disorders to rate the severity of the disease...
BACKGROUND: Schizophrenia (SZ), a psychiatric disorder for which there is no precise diagnosis, has had a serious impact on the quality of human life and social activities for many years. Therefore, an advanced approach for accurate treatment is requ...
Pattern recognition based on network connections has recently been applied to the brain-computer interface (BCI) research, offering new ideas for emotion recognition using Electroencephalogram (EEG) signal. However unified standards are currently lac...
The phonocardiogram (PCG) can be used as an affordable way to monitor heart conditions. This study proposes the training and testing of several classifiers based on SVMs (support vector machines), k-NN (k-Nearest Neighbor), and NNs (neural networks) ...
Identifying major depressive disorder (MDD) using objective physiological signals has become a pressing challenge.Hence, this paper proposes a graph convolutional transformer network (GCTNet) for accurate and reliable MDD detection using electroencep...
Accurate delineation of key waveforms in an ECG is a critical step in extracting relevant features to support the diagnosis and treatment of heart conditions. Although deep learning based methods using segmentation models to locate P, QRS, and T wave...

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive and incurable neurologi-cal disorder with a rising mortality rate, worsened by error-prone, time-intensive, and expensive clinical diagnosis methods. Automatic AD detection methods using hand-crafted Electroe...
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common arrhythmia, and out-of-hospital, wearable, long-term electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring can help with the early detection of AF. The presence of a motion artifact (MA) in ECG can significantly affect the character...
CNN has demonstrated remarkable performance in EEG signal detection, yet it still faces limitations in terms of global perception. Additionally, due to individual differences in EEG signals, the generalization ability of epilepsy detection models is ...
Electroencephalograph (EEG) brain-computer interfaces (BCI) have potential to provide new paradigms for controlling computers and devices. The accuracy of brain pattern classification in EEG BCI is directly affected by the quality of features extract...
