Remote Heart Rate Extraction Using Microsoft KinectTM v2.0
Remote and contactless heart rate detection is still an open research issue of great clinical importance. Available approaches lack the necessary accuracy and reliability for acceptance by medical experts. In this study, we propose a new method for ...
A Study of Temporal Stability on Finger-Vein Recognition Accuracy Using a Steady-State Model
Stability has been one of the most fundamental premises in biometric recognition field. In the last few years, a few achievements have been made on proving this theoretical premises concerning fingerprints, palm prints, iris, face, etc. However, none of ...
Continuous Joint Angle Estimation by Least Support Vector Machine from Time-Delayed sEMG Features
The main works of estimating continuous human kinematic information from surface electromyography (sEMG) are grounded on the extraction of useful information and the construction of proper estimation model. This paper proposes the least square support ...
Wheezing Sound Separation Based on Constrained Non-Negative Matrix Factorization
Auscultation remains the first clinical examination that a physician performs to detect respiratory diseases originated by wheezes, which are the most specific asthmatic symptoms. It is common that respiratory sounds (normal breath sounds) acoustically ...
Feature Selection for Automated Grading of Edible Birds Nest with ANFIS
Edible bird nest (EBN) is an expensive animal bio-product produced by swiftlets which is beneficial to humans. The conventional way of grading the EBN is carried out manually by human experts. However this approach is time consuming, cost ineffective ...
The Expression of Brain-Type Fatty Acid Binding Protein (FABP7) in Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus Mykiss)
The Fatty acid-binding proteins (FABP) is a 14-15kDa intracellular protein which belong to large multigene family of intracellular lipid-binding proteins and play a important role in lipid uptake, transport lipid homeostasis. In this study, the rainbow ...
An Analysis of Tophat: A Fast Splice Junction Mapper for RNA-Sequencing
In order to boost the theatrical performance of a TUX-E-DO Pipeline, we concentrated on the programs (tools) running within a pipeline to optimize their processing time. Initially we figured out the programs executing in the central part of the tuxedo ...
An Automated Colony Counter for Serial-Dilution Culture Method
Serial-dilution method is used for estimating the concentration of unknown sample by counting the number of bacterial colonies cultured and then backtracking the measured counts to the unknown concentration. This process is time-consuming, error prone ...
Bionics Based Emergency Contact for Treatment of Epilepsy
This research paper provides the new invention and boon to people suffering with epilepsy by early detection of the onset of tremors of epilepsy and sending the emergency call and emergency sms indicating location to police, hospital and his next to kin ...
Application of Graph Database in the Storage of Heterogeneous Omics Data for the Treatment in Bioinformatics
Cancer is driven by changes in the patterns of gene expressions due to the accumulation of mutations or epigenetic changes. One of the approaches used for detecting new oncogenes is the extraction of subgraphs with four vertices from a protein-protein ...
OMPetri: A New Petri Net Simulation Environment Based on OpenModelica
This paper will discuss relevant Petri net simulation tools and focus on a new Petri net simulation environment based on the OpenModelica software tool. A user interface will be presented, which allows the access to the Petri net library (PNlib) of ...
CIROFOMITE (Crystallization Inhibitor of Uric Acid in Synovial Fluid with Implanted Thermoregulator): Controller Device for Gout Recurrence
Gout Arthritis is an articular disease caused by crystallization of monosodium urate (MSU) as the derivate of purine metabolism. The crystal formation is induced by the articular limb temperature which is lower than body temperature. Nowadays, ...
Forces Calculation Module for the Leap-Based Virtual Glove
Hand rehabilitation is fundamental after stroke or surgery. Traditional rehabilitation implies high costs, stress for the patient, and subjective evaluation of the therapy effectiveness. Mechanical devices based approaches are often expensive, ...
Reliability of Wearable Sensors to Detect Agitation in Patients with Dementia: A Pilot Study
Wearable sensors have become increasingly accurate in measuring various aspects of health monitoring in humans. Individuals living with dementia often experience problematic agitated behaviors. There are many proven methods to intervene during agitated ...
Capacitance Measures During Cochlear Implants Electrode Array Positioning
During cochlear implant surgery, atraumatic electrode array insertion is considered to be a crucial step. However, during cochlear implantation, the mechanical behavior of an electrode array inside the cochlea is not known. The behavior of an electrode ...
Accurate Fall Detection Algorithm Based on SBPSO-SVM Classifier
For the purpose of improving the medical care which aims at the elderly and the chronic patients who are prone to falls, this paper makes use of Standard Binary Particle Swarm Optimization(SBPSO) to search for the combination of best feature subset and ...
