We herein propose an EigenECG Network (EECGNet) based on the principal component analysis network (PCANet) for the personal identification of electrocardiogram (ECG) from human biosignal data. The EECGNet consists of three stages. In the first stage, ECG signals are preprocessed by normalization and spike removal. The R peak points in the preprocessed ECG signals are detected. Subsequently, ECG signals are transformed into two-dimensional images to use as the input to the EECGNet. Further, we perform patch-mean removal and PCA algorithm similar to the PCANet from the transformed two-dimensional images. The second stage is almost the same as the first stage, where the mean removal and PCA process are repeatedly performed in the cascaded network. In the final stage, the binary quantization, block sliding, and histogram computation are performed. Thus, this EECGNet performs well without the use of back-propagation to obtain features from the visual content. We constructed a Chosun University (CU)-ECG database from an ECG sensor implemented by ourselves. Further, we used the well-known MIT Beth Israel Hospital (BIH) ECG database. The experimental results clearly reveal the good performance and effectiveness of the proposed method compared with conventional algorithms such as PCA, auto-encoder (AE), extreme learning machine (ELM), and ensemble extreme learning machine (EELM).

Advanced low-power filter architecture for biomedical signals with adaptive tuning.

This paper presents a low-power, second-order composite source-follower-based filter architecture optimized for biomedical signal processing, particularly ECG and EEG applications. Source-follower-based filters are recommended in the literature for high-frequency applications due to their lower power consumption when compared to filters with alternative topologies. However, they are not suitable for biomedical applications requiring low cutoff frequencies as they are designed to operate in the saturation region.

Lutropin/choriogonadotropin receptor (LH/CGR) is a member of the G protein-coupled receptor superfamily. LH/CGRs in fish and mammalian species have been reported to contain naturally occurring, constitutively activating, and inactivating mutations in highly conserved regions. The present study was designed to determine the functional aspect of eel LH/CGR signal transduction.

Background: Lack of motivation and behavioral abnormalities are the hallmarks of postpartum depression (PPD). Severe uterine contractions during labor are pain triggers for psychiatric disorders, including PPD in women during the puerperium. Creating biomarkers to monitor PPD may help in its early detection and treatment.

Objective: Although the evaluation of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) or atrial flutter (AFL) is crucial for appropriate medical management, the prediction of reduced LVEF (<50%) with AF/AFL electrocardiograms (ECGs) lacks evidence. This study aimed to investigate deep-learning approaches to predict reduced LVEF (<50%) in patients with AF/AFL ECGs and easily obtainable clinical information.

Methods: Patients with 12-lead ECGs of AF/AFL and echocardiography were divided into those with LVEF <50% and ≥50%.
