Abstract The non-invasive evaluation of the heart through EectroCardioGraphy (ECG) has played a key role in detecting heart disease. The analysis of ECG signals requires years of learning and experience to interpret and extract useful information from them. Thus, a computerized system is needed to classify ECG signals with more accurate results effectively. Abnormal heart rhythms are called arrhythmias and cause sudden cardiac deaths. In this work, a Computerized Abnormal Heart Rhythms Detection (CAHRD) system is developed using ECG signals. It consists of four stages; preprocessing, feature extraction, feature optimization and classifier. At first, Pan and… More >

Abstract Classification of speech signals is a vital part of speech signal processing systems. With the advent of speech coding and synthesis, the classification of the speech signal is made accurate and faster. Conventional methods are considered inaccurate due to the uncertainty and diversity of speech signals in the case of real speech signal classification. In this paper, we use efficient speech signal classification using a series of neural network classifiers with reinforcement learning operations. Prior classification of speech signals, the study extracts the essential features from the speech signal using Cepstral Analysis. The features are… More >

Abstract With new developments experienced in Internet of Things (IoT), wearable, and sensing technology, the value of healthcare services has enhanced. This evolution has brought significant changes from conventional medicine-based healthcare to real-time observation-based healthcare. Bio-medical Electrocardiogram (ECG) signals are generally utilized in examination and diagnosis of Cardiovascular Diseases (CVDs) since it is quick and non-invasive in nature. Due to increasing number of patients in recent years, the classifier efficiency gets reduced due to high variances observed in ECG signal patterns obtained from patients. In such scenario computer-assisted automated diagnostic tools are important for classification of… More >

Abstract Electrocardiogram (ECG) is a diagnostic method that helps to assess and record the electrical impulses of heart. The traditional methods in the extraction of ECG features is inneffective for avoiding the computational abstractions in the ECG signal. The cardiologist and medical specialist find numerous difficulties in the process of traditional approaches. The specified restrictions are eliminated in the proposed classifier. The fundamental aim of this work is to find the R-R interval. To analyze the blockage, different approaches are implemented, which make the computation as facile with high accuracy. The information are recovered from the… More >

Abstract Modulation signal classification in communication systems can be considered a pattern recognition problem. Earlier works have focused on several feature extraction approaches such as fractal feature, signal constellation reconstruction, etc. The recent advent of deep learning (DL) models makes it possible to proficiently classify the modulation signals. In this view, this study designs a chaotic oppositional satin bowerbird optimization (COSBO) with bidirectional long term memory (BiLSTM) model for modulation signal classification in communication systems. The proposed COSBO-BiLSTM technique aims to classify the different kinds of digitally modulated signals. In addition, the fractal feature extraction process More >

Abstract With the development of the Internet of Things (IoT), diverse wireless devices are increasing rapidly. Those devices have different wireless interfaces that generate incompatible wireless signals. Each signal has its own physical characteristics with signal modulation and demodulation scheme. When there exist different wireless devices, they can suffer from severe Cross-Technology Interferences (CTI). To reduce the communication overhead due to the CTI in the real IoT environment, a central coordinator can be able to detect and identify wireless signals existing in the same communication areas. This paper investigates how to classify various radio signals using… More >
