We investigate the performance of two different small-world feedforward neural networks for the diagnosis of diabetes. We use the Pima Indians Diabetic Dataset as input. We have previously shown than the Watts–Strogatz small-world feedforward neural network delivers a better classification performance than conventional feedforward neural networks. Here, we compare this performance further with the one delivered by the Newman–Watts small-world feedforward neural network, and we show that the latter is better still. Moreover, we show that Newman–Watts small-world feedforward neural networks yield the highest output correlation as well . . . as the best output error parameters. © 2017 Elsevier Inc Daha fazlası Daha az

The electrooculogram signals are very important at extracting information about detection of directional eye movements. Therefore, in this study, we propose a new intelligent detection model involving an artificial neural network for the eye movements based on the electrooculogram signals. In addition to conventional eye movements, our model also involves the detection of tic and blinking of an eye. We extract only two features from the electrooculogram signals, and use them as inputs for a feed-forwarded artificial neural network. We develop a new approach to compute these two features, which we call it as a movement range. The res . . .ults suggest that the proposed model have a potential to become a new tool to determine the directional eye movements accurately. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.

Artificial intelligent systems have been widely used for diagnosis of diseases. Due to their importance, new approaches are attempted consistently to increase the performance of these systems. In this study, we introduce a new approach for diagnosis of diabetes based on the Small-World Feed Forward Artificial Neural Network (SW- FFANN). We construct the small-world network by following the Watts-Strogatz approach, and use this architecture for classifying the diabetes, and compare its performance with that of the regular or the conventional FFANN. We show that the classification performance of the SW-FFANN is better than that of the . . . conventional FFANN. The SW-FFANN approach also results in both the highest output correlation and the best output error parameters. We also perform the accuracy analysis and show that SW-FFANN approach exhibits the highest classifier performance. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved Daha fazlası Daha az

Refractive disorders are common health problems in the community and they are the most important cause of visual impairment. In this study, it was aimed to classify the individuals who have hypermetropia and myopia refractive disorders or not. For this, horizontal and vertical Electrooculogram (EOG) signal data from the right and left eyes of the individuals were used. The performance of the data was investigated by using Logistic Regression (LR), Naive Bayes (NB), Random Forest (RF) and REP Tree (RT) data mining methods. According to the obtained results, REP Tree method has shown the most successful classification performance to d . . .etect hypermetropia and myopia refractive disorders from Electrooculogram (EOG) signals. © 2018 IEEE Daha fazlası Daha az

'Diabetes Mellitus (Diabetes)' is a disease based on insulin hormone disorders secreted from the pancreas gland. Clinical findings find out that diabetes causes some diseases in vital organs. 'Diabetic Retinopathy' is one of the most common eye diseases based on diabetes, and it is the leading cause of visual loss resulting from structural changes in the retinal vessels. Recent researches show that signals from vital organs can be used to diagnose diseases in the literature. In this study, the features of horizontal and vertical Video-Oculography (VOG) signals from right and left eye are used to classify non-proliferative and prolif . . .erative diabetic retinopathy disease. 25 statistical features are obtained using discrete wavelet transform with VOG signals from 24 subjects. Feature selection is performed using C4.5 decision tree algorithm from 25 features obtained. The statistical features obtained from C4.5 decision tree and discrete wavelet transform are applied as input to artificial neural networks and the classification performance of the 'Diabetic Retinopathy' disease are compared according to these two methods. Our results show that feature selection by C4.5 decision tree algorithm (96.87%) provides better classification performance than feature extraction with discrete wavelet transform (93.75%). © 2017 IEEE Daha fazlası Daha az

The eye, which has the most advanced features among sense organs, has a perfect functioning on people. Furthermore, as it is placed in the lead role of vision, shows the importance for people is quite big. Nowadays, biomedical devices developed for patients who have mobility are benefiting from eye movements. Electrooculogram studies are especially designed on the basis of the signal depending on the movement of your eyes. Electrical origin of EOG biological signal, that occur around the eye pupil, makes an attempt to meet the needs of patients by the right, left, up, down and blinking action. In this study, 4 basic differences exis . . .ting in the direction of movement using voltage controlled EOG signal studies have tried to determine the Neuro-Fuzzy model. Determining the direction of Neuro-Fuzzy control system demonstrates how it can be successfully used as. In addition, control algorithms of artificial intelligence systems that use this kind of eye signals benefiting from the input of the detection process is advantageous in the classification of complex environment Daha fazlası Daha az

In this study, the features of the seminiferous tubule sections were extracted and the presence of the cells and cell stain types detected with the help of the feed forward artificial neural network. By looking at the section view with a small window, 78 features were extracted from the pixels seen by the window and used as an input to the artificial neural network. Artificial neural network outputs are decides presence of the cell and the staining of the cell. The results obtained with the artificial neural network were determined by using the connected component labeling method. The results obtained with the help of the user and t . . .he results obtained with the artificial neural network were compared. It has been shown that the proposed ANN model performs cell counting process comparable to the literature (%76 accuracy). © 2017 IEEE Daha fazlası Daha az

Fetal deaths are important cases for forensic medicine, as well as for criminal and civil law. From a legal perspective, the determination of whether a deceased infant was stillborn is a difficult process. Such a determination is generally made during autopsy; however, no standardized procedures for this determination exist. Therefore, new facilitative approaches are needed. In this study, three new support systems based on 10 autopsy parameters were tested for their ability to correctly determine whether deceased infants were alive or stillborn. Performances were analyzed and compared with one another. The artificial neural network . . .s and radial basis function network models had 90% accuracy (the highest among the models tested), 100% sensitivity, and 83.3% specificity. Thus, the models presented here provide additional insights for future studies concerning infant autopsies. © 2016 American Academy of Forensic Science Daha fazlası Daha az

The surface electromyography (sEMG) is useful tool to diagnose of knee disorder in clinical environments. It assists in designing the clinical decision support systems based classification. These systems exhibit complex structure because of sEMG data obtained at different postures at this study. In this context, we have researched the classification performance of each posture using artificial neural network (ANN) and logistic regression (LR) models and have showed that the classification success of the model used sitting posture data is higher than other postures (gait and standing). We have promoted this finding by using machine l . . .earning and statistical methods. The results show that the proposed models can classify with over 95% of success, and also the ANN model has higher performance than the LR model. Our ANN model outperforms reported studies in literature. The accuracy results indicate that the models used the only sitting posture data can exhibit successful classification for the knee disorder. Therefore, the usage of complex dataset is prevented for diagnosing knee disorder. © 2018, Gazi University Eti Mahallesi. All rights reserved Daha fazlası Daha az

A computer aided detection scheme for the neural tube defect of spina bifida is proposed. Features from Zernike moments of fetal skull regions viewed by ultrasound are utilized in SVM classification. Rotational invariance of magnitudes of Zernike moments and their easy normalization with respect to translation and scale make them attractive for image and shape description. In particular, they are perfect candidates for classifying shapes of fetal skulls that possess markers of spina bifida. The automated detection system may act in decision support to help specialists avoid false negatives. Problems of rarity are handled with combin . . .ations of oversampling and undersampling. A variant of the synthetic minority oversampling technique (SMOTE) and random undersampling (RU) have been applied on training data. Experiments show the trade-off in various performance indicators depending on different sampling choices. The average values of 0.6276 F-measure and 0.6306 GMRP are achieved on non-sampled (original) test sets when training is performed using sampled data after 400% borderline-SMOTE followed by 50% RU with respective accuracy and specificity realizations of 94% and 98%. © 2018 Elsevier Lt Daha fazlası Daha az
