in this paper, we establish and prove the existence of best proximity points for multivalued cyclic $f$- contraction mappings in complete metric spaces. our results improve and extend various results in literature.

recently, choudhury and metiya [fixed points of weak contractions in cone metric spaces, nonlinear analysis 72 (2010) 1589-1593] proved some fixed point theorems for weak contractions in cone metric spaces. weak contractions are generalizations of the banach's contraction mapping, which have been studied by several authors. in this paper, we introduce the notion of $f$-weak contractions and als...

The study of fixed points on the maps fulfilling certain contraction requirements has several applications and been focus numerous research endeavors. On other hand, as an extension idea best approximation, proximity point (ƁƤƤ) emerges. approximation theorem ensures existence approximate solution; is considered for addressing problem in order to arrive at optimum solution. This paper introduce...

An automatic configuration that can detect the position of R-waves, classify the normal sinus rhythm (NSR) and other four arrhythmic types from the continuous ECG signals obtained from the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database is proposed. In this configuration, a support vector machine (SVM) was used to detect and mark the ECG heartbeats with raw signals and differential signals of a lead ECG. An algori...

The objective of this study is to re-evaluate the relation between surface electromyogram (EMG) and muscle contraction torque in biceps brachii (BB) muscles of healthy subjects using two different complexity measures. Ten healthy subjects were recruited and asked to complete a series of elbow flexion tasks following different isometric muscle contraction levels ranging from 10% to 80% of maximu...

The human-assisting robot can be helpful for improving the life quality of the disabled and elderly. As Electromyography (EMG) is a physiological signal generated during muscle contraction, it implicates, to certain extent, the human intention for movement, and is thus very suitable to serve as the control signal for the assisting robot. In this paper, we develop an upper-arm EMG-based robot co...

premature ventricular contraction (pvc) is one of the common cardiac arrhythmias. the occurrence of pvc is dangerous in people who have recently undergone heart. a pvc beat can easily be diagnosed by a doctor based on the shape of the electrocardiogram signal. but in automatic detection, extracting several important features from each beat is required. in this paper, a method for automatic dete...

Myoelectric signal (MES) is the electrical manifestation of muscular contraction. The transient part of the EMG signal, which is recorded at the surface of the skin of the forearm, has been exploited to provide the recognition of three finger movements. The objective of the paper is to describe the identification procedure, based on Transparent (interpretability) Fuzzy System and accuracy, whic...
