Machine learning-based estimation of respiratory fluctuations in a healthy adult population using resting state BOLD fMRI and head motion parameters.

Purpose: External physiological monitoring is the primary approach to measure and remove effects of low-frequency respiratory variation from BOLD-fMRI signals. However, the acquisition of clean external respiratory data during fMRI is not always possible, so recent research has proposed using machine learning to directly estimate respiratory variation (RV), potentially obviating the need for external monitoring. In this study, we propose an extended method for reconstructing RV waveforms directly from resting state BOLD-fMRI data in healthy adult participants with the inclusion of both BOLD signals and derived head motion parameters.

Image Translation for Estimating Two-Dimensional Axial Amyloid-Beta PET From Structural MRI.

Background: Amyloid-beta and brain atrophy are hallmarks for Alzheimer's Disease that can be targeted with positron emission tomography (PET) and MRI, respectively. MRI is cheaper, less-invasive, and more available than PET. There is a known relationship between amyloid-beta and brain atrophy, meaning PET images could be inferred from MRI.

Direct machine learning reconstruction of respiratory variation waveforms from resting state fMRI data in a pediatric population.

In many functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies, respiratory signals are unavailable or do not have acceptable quality due to issues with subject compliance, equipment failure or signal error. In large databases, such as the Human Connectome Projects, over half of the respiratory recordings may be unusable. As a result, the direct removal of low frequency respiratory variations from the blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) signal time series is not possible.

An intelligent system based on optimized ANFIS and association rules for power transformer fault diagnosis.

This research work put forward an intelligent method for diagnosis and classification of power transformers faults based on the instructive Dissolved Gas Analysis Method (DGAM) attributes and machine learning algorithms. In the proposed method, 14 attributes obtained through DGAM are utilized as the initial and unprocessed inputs of Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS). In this method, attribute selection and improved learning algorithm are utilized to enhance fault detection and recognition precision.

Breast cancer tumor type recognition using graph feature selection technique and radial basis function neural network with optimal structure.

Context: Breast cancer is a major cause of mortality in young women in the developing countries. Early diagnosis is the key to improve survival rate in cancer patients.

Aims: In this paper an intelligent system is proposed to breast cancer tumor type recognition.

Control chart pattern recognition using RBF neural network with new training algorithm and practical features.

The control chart patterns are the most commonly used statistical process control (SPC) tools to monitor process changes. When a control chart produces an out-of-control signal, this means that the process has been changed. In this study, a new method based on optimized radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) is proposed for control chart patterns (CCPs) recognition.
