The use of ECG in cardiovascular health monitoring is well established. The signal is collected using specialised equipment, capturing the electrical discharge properties of the human heart. This produces a well-structured signal trace, which can be characterised through its peaks and troughs. The signal can then be used by clinicians to diagnose cardiac disorders. However, as with any measuring equipment, the ECG output signal can experience deterioration resulting from noise. This can happen due to environmental interference, human issues or measuring equipment failure, necessitating the development of various denoising strategies to reduce, or remove, the noise. In this paper, we study typically occurring types of noise and implement popular strategies used to rectify them. We also show, that the given strategy's denoising potential is directly related to R-wave detection, and provide best strategies to apply when faced with specific noise type.

Background: Airport security is still a main concern for assuring passenger safety and stopping illegal activity. Dual-energy X-ray Imaging (DEXI) is one of the most important technologies for detecting hidden items in passenger luggage. However, noise in DEXI images, arising from various sources such as electronic interference and fluctuations in X-ray intensity, can compromise the effectiveness of object identification.

Background And Objective: Computed tomography (CT) of the head and neck is crucial for diagnosing internal structures. The demand for substituting traditional CT with cone beam CT (CBCT) exists because of its cost-effectiveness and reduced radiation exposure. However, CBCT cannot accurately depict airway shapes owing to image noise.

Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) is a widely used remote sensing technology for Earth observation, enabling the detection and measurement of ground deformation through the generation of interferograms. However, phase noise remains a critical factor that degrades interferogram quality. To address this issue, this study proposes MOMFNet, a deep learning approach for InSAR phase filtering based on multi-objective multi-kernel feature extraction that leverages multi-objective multi-kernel feature extraction.

Article Synopsis
  • The study addresses issues in fault diagnosis related to Fast Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition (FEEMD), like mode mixing and selection bias, and proposes a new method combining Fast Complementary Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition (FCEEMD) with Time-shift Multiscale Fuzzy Dispersion Entropy (TSMFDE) and adaptive Optuna-CatBoost to improve diagnostic accuracy.
  • By introducing paired white noise in FCEEMD, the method effectively reduces mode aliasing while retaining critical fault-related Intrinsic Mode Function components for better signal reconstruction.
  • The overall accuracy of fault diagnosis using this method is remarkably high, reaching 99.76% and 99.33%, demonstrating its potential
