Background: Paediatric movement disorders such as cerebral palsy often negatively impact walking behaviour. Although clinical gait analysis is usually performed to guide therapy decisions, not all respond positively to their assigned treatment. Identifying these individuals based on their pre-treatment characteristics could guide clinicians towards more appropriate and personalized interventions.

Article Synopsis
  • * A study involved 150 HF patients using streaming data from telemonitored vital signs and patient profiles to create a neural network model aimed at predicting 30-day readmission risks.
  • * The model shows promising results with over 71% sensitivity and 75% specificity, allowing for early identification of high-risk patients, which can improve resource allocation in care management.

The performance of a classifier in a brain-computer interface (BCI) system is highly dependent on the quality and quantity of training data. Typically, the training data are collected in a laboratory where the users perform tasks in a controlled environment. However, users' attention may be diverted in real-life BCI applications and this may decrease the performance of the classifier.

Objective: Despite the effective application of deep learning (DL) in brain-computer interface (BCI) systems, the successful execution of this technique, especially for inter-subject classification, in cognitive BCI has not been accomplished yet. In this paper, we propose a framework based on the deep convolutional neural network (CNN) to detect the attentive mental state from single-channel raw electroencephalography (EEG) data.

Approach: We develop an end-to-end deep CNN to decode the attentional information from an EEG time series.

Measuring attention from electroencephalogram (EEG) has found applications in the treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). It is of great interest to understand what features in EEG are most representative of attention. Intensive research has been done in the past and it has been proven that frequency band powers and their ratios are effective features in detecting attention.
