Classification of time series using singular values and wavelet subband analysis with ANN and SVM classifiers

Publication Name: Ines 05 IEEE 9th International Conference on Intelligent Engineering Systems Proceedings

Publication Date: 2005-01-01

Volume: 2005

Issue: Unknown

Page Range: 239-243

Description:

Oscillation of the cerebral blood flow (CBF) is a common feature in several physiological or pathophysiological states of the brain. It is promising to identify the disorders of the cerebral circulation based on the classification of CBF signals. In order to distinguish between different physiological states, two different classification methods have been developed; a Radial Basis Function based Neural Network and a Support Vector Classifier with Gaussian kernel. In order to describe the temporal blood flow patterns, two feature extraction procedures were applied; spectral matrix and wavelet subband analysis. These feature extraction and classification methods are evaluated and their efficiencies are compared. The computations were carried out with Mathematica 5.1 and its Wavelet Application. © 2005 IEEE.

Publication Date: 2005-01-01

Volume: 16

Issue: Unknown

Page Range: 214-219

Description:

Oscillation of the cerebral blood flow (CBF) is a common feature in several physiological or pathophysiological states of the brain. It is a promising opportunity to identify the disorders of the cerebral circulation based on the classification of CBF signals. Three classification models are developed with different heuristic in order to carry out the systematic classification based on a problem specific feature extraction. The efficiency of the selected classification methods are evaluated and compared. Copyright © 2005 IFAC.

Simulation of phase transformations in steel parts produced by laser powder deposition

Publication Name: Materials Science Forum

Publication Date: 2005-01-01

Volume: 473-474

Issue: Unknown

Page Range: 315-320

Description:

Multilayer laser powder deposition is being used for the rapid manufacturing of fully dense near net shape components in a wide variety of materials. In this process parts are built by overlapping consecutive layers of a laser melted material. As a result of this overlapping, the material in each layer will undergo successive thermal cycles as new layers are deposited. Despite their short duration, these thermal cycles can activate solid-state transformations that lead to progressive modification of the microstructure and properties of the material. Since the thermal history of the material in the deposited part will differ from point to point, the part will present a complex and heterogeneous microstructure, and properties that differ from point to point. Given that the microstructure and property distribution in steel parts produced by laser powder deposition can only be predicted by modelling, a three-dimensional thermo-kinetic finite element model of laser powder deposition of tool steels was developed, In the present work this model was applied to the study of the influence of substrate size on the microstructure and properties of a six-layer wall of AISI 420 tool steel. The results show that the temperature field depends significantly on the size of the substrate, leading to distinct microstructures and properties in the final part. © 2005 Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.

Novel communication services based on ENUM technology

Publication Name: Ines 05 IEEE 9th International Conference on Intelligent Engineering Systems Proceedings

Publication Date: 2005-01-01

Volume: 2005

Issue: Unknown

Page Range: 217-220

Description:

ENUM is the short name for a protocol for connecting resources of telecommunication and the Internet to one another. It specifies a rule that makes it possible to relate a domain to a telephone number without any risk of ambiguity. This domain can then be used to identify various communication services like fax, mobile radio, voice-mail systems, e-mail addresses, IP telephony addresses, web pages, GPS coordinates, call diverts or unified messaging. Several countries in the world examine the possibilities of the use of ENUM in national trials. Recently two Hungarian universities and an Internet service provider established a research project aiming the development of ENUM based communication services. In Hungary we have to deal not only with the questions of creating and providing the technological background, but also with the business aspects of ENUM based service development. The article will firstly give an overview about the ENUM itself. Then it will deal with ENUM services and business models. After that we discuss the situation of ENUM in different European countries. It will present the planned and accomplished ENUM based services in these countries. Then we are going to give the aims of the project in Hungary, which is led by the Szechenyi Istvan University in Gy6r. In setting these aims we can rely on the projects of other countries, and learn from them. © 2005 IEEE.

Optimal life-time maintenance policy and deterioration process

Publication Name: Ines 05 IEEE 9th International Conference on Intelligent Engineering Systems Proceedings

Publication Date: 2005-01-01

Volume: 2005

Issue: Unknown

Page Range: 229-232

Description:

With the recognition that the engineering structures maintenance and repair needs far exceed the rescourses available to adress these needs, many firms have to turned to the development of ESMS (Enginnering Structures Management System) as a method to improve the allocation of these limited resources and the condition of their engineering structures. The ESMS is based on performance modelingbecause of without the actual condition of the structures and the future deterioration process any model could not be build up. The paper provides an overviev of the need for ESMS and the posibble description of the performance modeling. © 2005 IEEE.

Reconstruction of myocardial short-scan SPECT images

Publication Name: Ines 05 IEEE 9th International Conference on Intelligent Engineering Systems Proceedings

Publication Date: 2005-01-01

Volume: 2005

Issue: Unknown

Page Range: 37-41

Description:

In myocardial perfusion SPECT imaging the effect of photon attenuation may introduce artifacts in the reconstructed image due to the highly non-uniform distribution of tissue in the thorax region, potentially resulting in false-positive interpretations. It was the general consideration that the adequate compensation of photon attenuation requires, that the emission data be measured at projection angles over 2π in the case of the attenuation medium is inhomogeneous. The reduction of the scanning angle in SPECT imaging may be desirable because it can reduce scanning time and thereby minimize patient-motion and other artifacts. In SPECT myocardial imaging emission data is measured historically at projection angles over π from the right anterior oblique (RAO) to the left posterior oblique (LPO). This configuration results in better image contrast and, in some cases, betters spatial resolution. However, in this case the reconstructed image may suffer more severely from geometric distortion than 2π angular sampling. It has been proven recently in analytical computer simulation studies that the data function over 2π in SPECT with non-uniform attenuation contains redundant information; therefore the scanning angle theoretically can be reduced from 2π to π without loss of information. In this study our goal was to investigate how the various short-scan SPECT scheme configurations works in a real myocardial SPECT imaging system with highly inhomogeneous attenuating medium using attenuation correction. The measured projection images were reconstructed using the Maximum Likelihood Expectation Maximization algorithm with attenuation correction. The reconstructed slices of the various short-scan configurations and the full-scan slices were compared by a cardiac stress/rest software package. © 2005 IEEE.
