A comparison of the ECG classification performance of different feature sets
(IEEE, 2000)This study investigates the automatic classification of the Frank lead ECG into different disease categories. A comparison of the performance of a number of different feature sets is presented. The feature sets considered ... -
Automatic classification of sleep apnea epochs using the electrocardiogram
(IEEE, 2000)This study investigated the automatic prediction of epochs of sleep apnea from the electrocardiogram. A large independently validated database of 70 single lead ECGs, each of approximately 8 hours in duration, was used ... -
Robust multi-modal person Identification with tolerance of facial expression
(IEEE, 2004)The research presented in this work describes audio-visual speaker identification experiments carried out on a large data set of 251 subjects. Both the audio and visual modeling is carried out using hidden Markov models. ... -
A comparison of covert and overt attention as a control option in a steady-state visual evoked potential-based brain computer interface
(2004)EEG data were recorded from occipital scalp regions of subjects who attended to an alternating checkerboard stimulus in one visual field while ignoring a similar stimulus of a different frequency in the opposite ... -
Independent brain computer interface control using visual spatial attention-dependent modulations of parieto-occipital alpha
(2005)Parieto-occipital alpha band (8-14 Hz) EEG activity was examined daring a spatial attention-based brain computer interface paradigm for its potential use as a feature for left/right spatial attention classification. In ... -
Literature Review on Issues of Work Life Balance, Workplace Culture and Maternity/Childcare Issues
(Crisis Pregnancy Agency, 2006)This report is a literature review of work-life balance, workplace culture and maternity/childcare issues. It draws on national and international research, policy and legislation, and looks particularly at the role each ... -
Automated processing of the single lead electrocardiogram for the detection of obstructive sleep apnoea
(IEEE, 2003)A method for the automatic processing of the electrocardiogram (ECG) for the detection of obstructive apnoea is presented. The method screens nighttime single-lead ECG recordings for the presence of major sleep apnoea and ... -
Automated processing of shoeprint images based on the Fourier transform for use in forensic science
(IEEE, 2005)The development of a system for automatically sorting a database of shoeprint images based on the outsole pattern in response to a reference shoeprint image is presented. The database images are sorted so that those from ... -
Adaptive noncontact gesture-based system for augmentative communication
(IEEE, 1999)An adaptive noncontact gesture-based system for augmentative communication is described. The system detects movement of any anatomical site through the analysis of reflected speckle. This movement is converted into ... -
A model for human skin impedance during surface functional neuromuscular stimulation
(IEEE, 1999)A new mathematical model for the bulk electrical impedance of human skin is presented. In particular this model describes the impedance of skin during surface functional neuromuscular stimulation (FNS) with square stimulation ... -
Automatic classification of heartbeats using ECG morphology and heartbeat interval features
(IEEE, 2004)A method for the automatic processing of the electrocardiogram (ECG) for the classification of heartbeats is presented. The method allocates manually detected heartbeats to one of the five beat classes recommended by ... -
A parametric feature extraction and classification strategy for brain-computer interfacing
(IEEE, 2005)Parametric modeling strategies are explored in conjunction with linear discriminant analysis for use in an electroencephalogram (EEG)-based brain-computer interface (BCI). A left/right self-paced typing exercise is analyzed ... -
Visual spatial attention tracking using high-density SSVEP data for independent brain-computer communication
(2005)The steady-state visual evoked potential (SSVEP) has been employed successfully in (BCI) research, but its use in a design entirely independent of eye movement has until recently not been reported. This paper presents ... -
Visual spatial attention control in an independent brain-computer interface
(2005)This paper presents a novel brain computer interface (BCI) design employing visual evoked potential (VEP) modulations in a paradigm involving no dependency on peripheral muscles or nerves. The system utilizes ... -
Telephony-based voice pathology assessment using automated speech analysis
(IEEE, 2006)A system for remotely detecting vocal fold pathologies using telephone-quality speech is presented. The system uses a linear classifier, processing measurements of pitch perturbation, amplitude perturbation and harmonic-to-noise ... -
A patient adapting heartbeat classifier using ECG morphology and heart-beat interval features
(IEEE, 2006)An adaptive system for the automatic processing of the electrocardiogram (ECG) for the classification of heartbeats into one of the five beat classes recommended by ANSI/AAMI EC57:1998 standard is presented. The heartbeat ... -
Robust biometric person identification using automatic classifier fusion of speech, mouth, and face experts
(IEEE, 2007)Information about person identity is multimodal. Yet, most person-recognition systems limit themselves to only a single modality, such as facial appearance. With a view to exploiting the complementary nature of different ... -
Electrocardiogram based neonatal seizure detection
(IEEE, 2007)A method for the detection of seizures in the newborn using the electrocardiogram (ECG) signal is presented. Using a database of eight recordings, a method was developed for automatically annotating each 1-min epoch as ... -
Using broad phonetic group experts for improved speech recognition
(IEEE, 2007)In phoneme recognition experiments, it was found that approximately 75% of misclassified frames were assigned labels within the same broad phonetic group (BPG). While the phoneme can be described as the smallest ...
