Applications based on electrocardiogram (ECG) signal feature extraction and classification are of major importance to the autodiagnosis of heart diseases. Most studies on ECG classification methods have targeted only 1or 2-lead ECG signals. This limitation results from the unavailability of real clinical 12-lead ECG data, which would help train the classification models. In this study, we propo...

A 4,103-bp long DNA fragment containing the structural gene of a gentisate 1,2-dioxygenase (EC 1.13.11.4), gtdA, from Sphingomonas sp. strain RW5 was cloned and sequenced. The gtdA gene encodes a 350-amino-acid polypeptide with a predicted size of 38.85 kDa. Comparison of the gtdA gene product with protein sequences in databases, including those of intradiol or extradiol ring-cleaving dioxygena...

• BCI pipeline with tensor feature reduction and analytical regularization. Comparison three state-of-the-art methods during different perturbations. Achieves high accuracy in short trials small sample sizes. Offers performance both low number of electrodes. Suitable for noisy data, channel setups limited training data. Periodic signals called Steady-State Visual Evoked Potentials (SSVEP) are e...

BACKGROUND Histological behavior of glioblastoma multiforme suggests it would benefit more from a global rather than regional evaluation. A global (whole-brain) calculation of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) derived tensor metrics offers a valid method to detect the integrity of white matter structures without missing infiltrated brain areas not seen in conventional sequences. In this study we c...

There has been a great effort to transfer linear discriminant techniques that operate on vector data to high-order data, generally referred to as Multilinear Discriminant Analysis (MDA) techniques. Many existing works focus on maximizing the inter-class variances to intra-class variances defined on tensor data representations. However, there has not been any attempt to employ class-specific dis...

CUIDADO is a new project (European I.S.T. Project) which aims at providing content-based music applications (Vinet, Herrera, and Pachet 2002). Among these applications is an authoring tool for managing sample databases including search by similarity, search by textual attributes but also a system allowing automatic sound classification based on predefined taxonomies but also allowing user to de...

Discriminant information (DI) plays a critical role in face recognition. In this paper, we proposed a Second Order Discriminant Tensor Subspace Analysis (DTSA) algorithm to extract discriminant features from the intrinsic manifold structure of the tensor data. DTSA combines the advantages of previous methods with DI, the tensor methods preserving the spatial structure information of the samples...
