Unsupervised Detection of Interictal Epileptiform Discharges in Routine Scalp EEG : Machine Learning Assisted Epilepsy Diagnosis

Shao, Shuai January 2023 (has links)
Epilepsy affects more than 50 million people and is one of the most prevalent neurological disorders and has a high impact on the quality of life of those suffering from it. However, 70% of epilepsy patients can live seizure free with proper diagnosis and treatment. Patients are evaluated using scalp EEG recordings which is cheap and non-invasive. Diagnostic yield is however low and qualified personnel need to process large amounts of data in order to accurately assess patients. MindReader is an unsupervised classifier which detects spectral anomalies and generates a hypothesis of the underlying patient state over time. The aim is to highlight abnormal, potentially epileptiform states, which could expedite analysis of patients and let qualified personnel attest the results. It was used to evaluate 95 scalp EEG recordings from healthy adults and adult patients with epilepsy. Interictal Epileptiform discharges (IED) occurring in the samples had been retroactively annotated, along with the patient state and maneuvers performed by personnel, to enable characterization of the classifier’s detection performance. The performance was slightly worse than previous benchmarks on pediatric scalp EEG recordings, with a 7% and 33% drop in specificity and sensitivity, respectively. Electrode positioning and partial spatial extent of events saw notable impact on performance. However, no correlation between annotated disturbances and reduction in performance could be found. Additional explorative analysis was performed on serialized intermediate data to evaluate the analysis design. Hyperparameters and electrode montage options were exposed to optimize for the average Mathew’s correlation coefficient (MCC) per electrode per patient, on a subset of the patients with epilepsy. An increased window length and lowered amount of training along with an common average montage proved most successful. The Euclidean distance of cumulative spectra (ECS), a metric suitable for spectral analysis, and homologous L2 and L1 loss function were implemented, of which the ECS further improved the average performance for all samples. Four additional analyses, featuring new time-frequency transforms and multichannel convolutional autoencoders were evaluated and an analysis using the continuous wavelet transform (CWT) and a convolutional autoencoder (CNN) performed the best, with an average MCC score of 0.19 and 56.9% sensitivity with approximately 13.9 false positives per minute.

Překlad z češtiny do angličtiny / Czech-English Translation

Petrželka, Jiří January 2010 (has links)
Tato diplomová práce popisuje principy statistického strojového překladu a demonstruje, jak sestavit systém pro statistický strojový překlad Moses. V přípravné fázi jsou prozkoumány volně dostupné bilingvní česko-anglické korpusy. Empirická analýza časové náročnosti vícevláknových nástrojů pro zarovnání slov demonstruje, že MGIZA++ může dosáhnout až pětinásobného zrychlení, zatímco PGIZA++ až osminásobného zrychlení (v porovnání s GIZA++). Jsou otestovány tři způsoby morfologického pre-processingu českých trénovacích dat za použití jednoduchých nefaktorových modelů. Zatímco jednoduchá lemmatizace může snížit BLEU, sofistikovanější přístupy většinou BLEU zvyšují. Positivní efekty morfologického pre-processingu se vytrácejí s růstem velikosti korpusu. Vztah mezi dalšími charakteristikami korpusu (velikost, žánr, další data) a výsledným BLEU je empiricky měřen. Koncový systém je natrénován na korpusu CzEng 0.9 a vyhodnocen na testovacím vzorku z workshopu WMT 2010.

Enhanching the Human-Team Awareness of a Robot

Wåhlin, Peter January 2012 (has links)
The use of autonomous robots in our society is increasing every day and a robot is no longer seen as a tool but as a team member. The robots are now working side by side with us and provide assistance during dangerous operations where humans otherwise are at risk. This development has in turn increased the need of robots with more human-awareness. Therefore, this master thesis aims at contributing to the enhancement of human-aware robotics. Specifically, we are investigating the possibilities of equipping autonomous robots with the capability of assessing and detecting activities in human teams. This capability could, for instance, be used in the robot's reasoning and planning components to create better plans that ultimately would result in improved human-robot teamwork performance. we propose to improve existing teamwork activity recognizers by adding intangible features, such as stress, motivation and focus, originating from human behavior models. Hidden markov models have earlier been proven very efficient for activity recognition and have therefore been utilized in this work as a method for classification of behaviors. In order for a robot to provide effective assistance to a human team it must not only consider spatio-temporal parameters for team members but also the psychological.To assess psychological parameters this master thesis suggests to use the body signals of team members. Body signals such as heart rate and skin conductance. Combined with the body signals we investigate the possibility of using System Dynamics models to interpret the current psychological states of the human team members, thus enhancing the human-awareness of a robot. / Användningen av autonoma robotar i vårt samhälle ökar varje dag och en robot ses inte längre som ett verktyg utan som en gruppmedlem. Robotarna arbetar nu sida vid sida med oss och ger oss stöd under farliga arbeten där människor annars är utsatta för risker. Denna utveckling har i sin tur ökat behovet av robotar med mer människo-medvetenhet. Därför är målet med detta examensarbete att bidra till en stärkt människo-medvetenhet hos robotar. Specifikt undersöker vi möjligheterna att utrusta autonoma robotar med förmågan att bedöma och upptäcka olika beteenden hos mänskliga lag. Denna förmåga skulle till exempel kunna användas i robotens resonemang och planering för att ta beslut och i sin tur förbättra samarbetet mellan människa och robot. Vi föreslår att förbättra befintliga aktivitetsidentifierare genom att tillföra förmågan att tolka immateriella beteenden hos människan, såsom stress, motivation och fokus. Att kunna urskilja lagaktiviteter inom ett mänskligt lag är grundläggande för en robot som ska vara till stöd för laget. Dolda markovmodeller har tidigare visat sig vara mycket effektiva för just aktivitetsidentifiering och har därför använts i detta arbete. För att en robot ska kunna ha möjlighet att ge ett effektivt stöd till ett mänskligtlag måste den inte bara ta hänsyn till rumsliga parametrar hos lagmedlemmarna utan även de psykologiska. För att tyda psykologiska parametrar hos människor förespråkar denna masteravhandling utnyttjandet av mänskliga kroppssignaler. Signaler så som hjärtfrekvens och hudkonduktans. Kombinerat med kroppenssignalerar påvisar vi möjligheten att använda systemdynamiksmodeller för att tolka immateriella beteenden, vilket i sin tur kan stärka människo-medvetenheten hos en robot. / <p>The thesis work was conducted in Stockholm, Kista at the department of Informatics and Aero System at Swedish Defence Research Agency.</p>
