A BERT Framework to Sentiment Analysis of Tweets.

Sentiment analysis has been widely used in microblogging sites such as Twitter in recent decades, where millions of users express their opinions and thoughts because of its short and simple manner of expression. Several studies reveal the state of sentiment which does not express sentiment based on the user context because of different lengths and ambiguous emotional information. Hence, this study proposes text classification with the use of bidirectional encoder representations from transformers (BERT) for natural language processing with other variants.

EEG-based emotion recognition using hybrid CNN and LSTM classification.

Emotions are a mental state that is accompanied by a distinct physiologic rhythm, as well as physical, behavioral, and mental changes. In the latest days, physiological activity has been used to study emotional reactions. This study describes the electroencephalography (EEG) signals, the brain wave pattern, and emotion analysis all of these are interrelated and based on the consequences of human behavior and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).

A PDF-based classification of gait cadence patterns in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a type of neurological disease due to the degeneration of motor neurons. During the course of such a progressive disease, it would be difficult for ALS patients to regulate normal locomotion, so that the gait stability becomes perturbed. This paper presents a pilot statistical study on the gait cadence (or stride interval) in ALS, based on the statistical analysis method.

Filtering electrocardiographic signals using an unbiased and normalized adaptive noise reduction system.

We present a novel unbiased and normalized adaptive noise reduction (UNANR) system to suppress random noise in electrocardiographic (ECG) signals. The system contains procedures for the removal of baseline wander with a two-stage moving-average filter, comb filtering of power-line interference with an infinite impulse response (IIR) comb filter, an additive white noise generator to test the system's performance in terms of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and the UNANR model that is used to estimate the noise which is subtracted from the contaminated ECG signals. The UNANR model does not contain a bias unit, and the coefficients are adaptively updated by using the steepest-descent algorithm.

Cancellation of artifacts in ECG signals using a normalized adaptive neural filter.

Denoising electrocardiographic (ECG) signals is an essential procedure prior to their analysis. In this paper, we present a normalized adaptive neural filter (NANF) for cancellation of artifacts in ECG signals. The normalized filter coefficients are updated by the steepest-descent algorithm; the adaptation process is designed to minimize the difference between second-order estimated output values and the desired artifact-free ECG signals.

Manufacturing Student Leaders and Cultivating Six Ingredients for Success of an EMBS Student Organization.

We present in this paper seven individual qualities of student leadership and emphasize six ingredients for successfully maintaining EMBS student clubs and chapters. Particularly, we provide a comprehensive view on segmented functions of an EMBS student organization, and discuss in detail the executive operations such as strategy management, program management with minimum-cost scheduling, recruitment and member development, seeking opportunities and supports from internal and external collaborations, building up information platform for communicating and construct institutional rules for indemnification of a health development. Our insights could help generate a general framework for sustainable development of an EMBS student organization.

Magnified gradient function with deterministic weight modification in adaptive learning.

This paper presents two novel approaches, backpropagation (BP) with magnified gradient function (MGFPROP) and deterministic weight modification (DWM), to speed up the convergence rate and improve the global convergence capability of the standard BP learning algorithm. The purpose of MGFPROP is to increase the convergence rate by magnifying the gradient function of the activation function, while the main objective of DWM is to reduce the system error by changing the weights of a multilayered feedforward neural network in a deterministic way. Simulation results show that the performance of the above two approaches is better than BP and other modified BP algorithms for a number of learning problems.
