Hospitals use medical cyber-physical systems (MCPS) more often to give patients quality continuous care. MCPS isa life-critical, context-aware, networked system of medical equipment. It has been challenging to achieve high assurance in system software, interoperability, context-aware intelligence, autonomy, security and privacy, and device certifiability due to the necessity to create complicated MCPS that are safe and efficient. The MCPS system is shown in the paper as a newly developed application case study of artificial intelligence in healthcare. Applications for various CPS-based healthcare systems are discussed, such as telehealthcare systems for managing chronic diseases (cardiovascular diseases, epilepsy, hearing loss, and respiratory diseases), supporting medication intake management, and tele-homecare systems. The goal of this study is to provide a thorough overview of the essential components of the MCPS from several angles, including design, methodology, and important enabling technologies, including sensor networks, the Internet of Things (IoT), cloud computing, and multi-agent systems. Additionally, some significant applications are investigated, such as smart cities, which are regarded as one of the key applications that will offer new services for industrial systems, transportation networks, energy distribution, monitoring of environmental changes, business and commerce applications, emergency response, and other social and recreational activities.The four levels of an MCPS's general architecture-data collecting, data aggregation, cloud processing, and action-are shown in this study. Different encryption techniques must be employed to ensure data privacy inside each layer due to the variations in hardware and communication capabilities of each layer. We compare established and new encryption techniques based on how well they support safe data exchange, secure computing, and secure storage. Our thorough experimental study of each method reveals that, although enabling innovative new features like secure sharing and safe computing, developing encryption approaches significantly increases computational and storage overhead. To increase the usability of newly developed encryption schemes in an MCPS and to provide a comprehensive list of tools and databases to assist other researchers, we provide a list of opportunities and challenges for incorporating machine intelligence-based MCPS in healthcare applications in our paper's conclusion.

A comprehensive review of digital twin in healthcare in the scope of simulative health-monitoring.

Digit Health

January 2025

Faculty IV: School of Science and Technology, Institute for Knowledge-Based Systems and Knowledge Management, University of Siegen, Siegen, Germany.

Objective: Digital twins (DTs) emerged in the wake of Industry 4.0 and the creation of cyber-physical systems, motivated by the increased availability and variability of machine and sensor data. DTs are a concept to create a digital representation of a physical entity and imitate its behavior, while feeding real-world data to the digital counterpart, thus allowing enabling digital simulations related to the real-world entity.

Article Synopsis
  • Myocardial infarction (MI) is a critical health issue that requires quick and accurate diagnostic methods, and this paper introduces a new technique using the Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) to improve detection of MI from ECG signals.
  • The DWT helps isolate and reduce noise in ECG recordings, allowing for cleaner signals, which are then analyzed using lightweight one-dimensional Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) to classify them as either MI or normal.
  • The proposed model demonstrates strong performance, achieving a 96% accuracy with one dataset and 91.18% with another, while also addressing class imbalances through under-sampling and up-sampling techniques.

Cyber-Physical Perception Interface for Co-Simulation Applications.

Sensors (Basel)

October 2024

Faculty of Automatic Control and Computers, National University of Science and Technology POLITEHNICA Bucharest, 313 Splaiul Independentei, 060042 Bucharest, Romania.

Co-simulation can bring improvements to the development of cyber-physical perceptive systems (CPPS) in critical fields, allowing uninterrupted system operation and flexibility to use both real-time sensor data and non-real-time data. This paper proposes a co-simulation approach that integrates physical systems and communication systems, including both hardware and software components. This study demonstrates how systems of different natures with discrete or continuous events can be simulated using three methods: time stepped, global event driven, and variable stepped.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the fixed-time synchronization (FXTS) problem in delayed multiple inertial neural networks (MINNs) while addressing potential cyber-physical attacks (CPA) that introduce uncertainties through impulse reactions using reaction-diffusion (RD) terms.
  • Through fixed-time stability theory, the paper presents practical criteria for FXTS and offers a distributed control strategy to enhance security against CPA, despite challenges arising from cooperative network functions amid attacks or failures.
  • Additionally, the research introduces a multi-image encryption algorithm leveraging MINNs to protect sensitive medical data in electronic healthcare systems, supported by a numerical model that validates the proposed theoretical framework.
