Doppler ultrasound dataset for the development of automatic emboli detection algorithms.

ABSTRACT: The article describes a dataset of doppler ultrasound audio tracks taken on a sample of 30 divers according to the acquisition protocol defined by the Divers Alert Network. The audio tracks are accompanied by a medical evaluation for the decompression sickness risk according to the Spencer's scale levels. During the acquisition campaign, each diver in the post-dive phase was subjected to a double doppler ultrasound examination of approximately 45 seconds each one in the precordial area using a Huntleigh FD1 Fetal doppler probe. The two measurements were separated by a time of 8-10 seconds necessary for carrying out specific physical exercises designed to free the bubbles trapped in the tissues. The audio tracks were stored without compression via the TASCAM DP-004 recorder and processed in order to eliminate the noise generated by the positioning of the probe and the time interval between the two measurements. The audio tracks recorded during the acquisition campaign have been evaluated by experts belonging to three independent blind teams in order to provide an assessment of the decompression sickness risk according to Extended Spencer's scale. The specific typology of doppler ultrasound audio tracks and the associated medical evaluation according to the Spencer's scale levels make this dataset useful for the development, testing, and performance evaluation of new audio processing algorithms capable of automatically detecting bubbles in the blood vessels.

Date fruit detection dataset for automatic harvesting.

Project description:Date fruit is one of the most beneficial and delicious fruits in the world through its nutritional value, it's a rich source of sugar, Protein, Manganese, Fibers, and many other vitamins, on the other hand, date production in the world reached up to 9.45 million tons, one palm tree can produce dates for 40-50 years which makes date production one of the main pillars of the economy. Generally, the methods used for pre and post-harvesting are done manually, making the operation heavy in terms of time and economy. Research in the area of harvesting automation is still limited due to the absence of data. This work presents a full dataset for detection, classification, analysis, and harvesting decisions. The dataset contains a collection of images and videos for different varieties of dates at different stages of maturity, taking into consideration all the natural conditions including light, contrast, dates in bags, and multi-scaled images. The big advantage of this dataset is it can help to put agriculture research at an advanced level by robotizing all the pre and post-harvesting tasks. The dataset is published for free in ZENODO [1] https://zenodo.org/doi/10.5281/zenodo.8315234.

eHomeSeniors Dataset: An Infrared Thermal Sensor Dataset for Automatic Fall Detection Research.

Project description:Automatic fall detection is a very active research area, which has grown explosively since the 2010s, especially focused on elderly care. Rapid detection of falls favors early awareness from the injured person, reducing a series of negative consequences in the health of the elderly. Currently, there are several fall detection systems (FDSs), mostly based on predictive and machine-learning approaches. These algorithms are based on different data sources, such as wearable devices, ambient-based sensors, or vision/camera-based approaches. While wearable devices like inertial measurement units (IMUs) and smartphones entail a dependence on their use, most image-based devices like Kinect sensors generate video recordings, which may affect the privacy of the user. Regardless of the device used, most of these FDSs have been tested only in controlled laboratory environments, and there are still no mass commercial FDS. The latter is partly due to the impossibility of counting, for ethical reasons, with datasets generated by falls of real older adults. All public datasets generated in laboratory are performed by young people, without considering the differences in acceleration and falling features of older adults. Given the above, this article presents the eHomeSeniors dataset, a new public dataset which is innovative in at least three aspects: first, it collects data from two different privacy-friendly infrared thermal sensors; second, it is constructed by two types of volunteers: normal young people (as usual) and performing artists, with the latter group assisted by a physiotherapist to emulate the real fall conditions of older adults; and third, the types of falls selected are the result of a thorough literature review.

A dataset for the development and optimization of fall detection algorithms based on wearable sensors.

Project description:This paper describes a dataset acquired on 8 subjects while simulating 13 types of falls and 5 types of Activities of Daily Living (ADL), each repeated 3 times. In details, data includes 4 simulated falls forward (falling on knees ending up lying, ending in lateral position, ending up lying, ending up lying with recovery), 4 backward (falling sitting ending up lying, ending in lateral position, ending up lying, ending up lying with recovery), 2 lateral right (ending up lying, ending up lying with recovery), 2 lateral left (ending up lying, ending up lying with recovery), and 1 syncope. Simulated ADL are: lying on a bed then standing; walking a few meters; sitting on a chair then standing; go up or down three steps; and standing after picking something. Data were acquired using a MARG sensor, a wearable multisensory device tied to the subject's waist, that recorded time-variations of the subject's acceleration and orientation (expressed through the yaw, pitch and roll angles). These data can be useful in the development and test of algorithms to automatically identify and classify fall events. Fall detection systems are particularly useful when a subject is alone and not able to stand up after a fall, since an automatic alarm can be sent remotely to receive proper help.

Dynamic Feature Dataset for Ransomware Detection Using Machine Learning Algorithms

Project description:Ransomware-related cyber-attacks have been on the rise over the last decade, disturbing organizations considerably. Developing new and better ways to detect this type of malware is necessary. This research applies dynamic analysis and machine learning to identify the ever-evolving ransomware signatures using selected dynamic features. Since most of the attributes are shared by diverse ransomware-affected samples, our study can be used for detecting current and even new variants of the threat. This research has the following objectives: (1) Execute experiments with encryptor and locker ransomware combined with goodware to generate JSON files with dynamic parameters using a sandbox. (2) Analyze and select the most relevant and non-redundant dynamic features for identifying encryptor and locker ransomware from goodware. (3) Generate and make public a dynamic features dataset that includes these selected parameters for samples of different artifacts. (4) Apply the dynamic feature dataset to obtain models with machine learning algorithms. Five platforms, 20 ransomware, and 20 goodware artifacts were evaluated. The final feature dataset is composed of 2000 registers of 50 characteristics each. This dataset allows for a machine learning detection with a 10-fold cross-evaluation with an average accuracy superior to 0.99 for gradient boosted regression trees, random forest, and neural networks.

Image dataset for benchmarking automated fish detection and classification algorithms.

Project description:Multiparametric video-cabled marine observatories are becoming strategic to monitor remotely and in real-time the marine ecosystem. Those platforms can achieve continuous, high-frequency and long-lasting image data sets that require automation in order to extract biological time series. The OBSEA, located at 4 km from Vilanova i la Geltrú at 20 m depth, was used to produce coastal fish time series continuously over the 24-h during 2013-2014. The image content of the photos was extracted via tagging, resulting in 69917 fish tags of 30 taxa identified. We also provided a meteorological and oceanographic dataset filtered by a quality control procedure to define real-world conditions affecting image quality. The tagged fish dataset can be of great importance to develop Artificial Intelligence routines for the automated identification and classification of fishes in extensive time-lapse image sets.

Role of ultrasound and color Doppler imaging in the detection of carotid paragangliomas.

Project description:IntroductionCarotid body paragangliomas (PGLs) are highly vascularized lesions that arise from the paraganglia located at the carotid bifurcation.PurposeTo evaluate the usefulness of gray-scale ultrasound (US) and color Doppler ultrasound (CDUS) in the detection and follow-up of carotid PGLs of the neck.Materials and methodsThe authors retrospectively reviewed US and CDUS examinations of the neck performed in 40 patients with PGL syndrome type 1 and single or bilateral neck PGLs confirmed by CT or MRI; the patients had a total of 60 PGLs of the neck. US and CDUS outcome was compared to the outcome of second-line imaging techniques such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computed tomography (CT). The following findings were considered: presence/absence of focal lesions at US imaging and difference in maximum diameter of the lesion measured at US and MRI/CT. Results were compared using the Student's t-test.ResultsOf the 60 PGLs of the neck only 5 (8.3%) were not visualized at US or CDUS examination. The difference in maximum diameter of these lesions measured at CT/MRI and US/CDUS ranged between -5 mm and +16 mm (mean difference 2.2 ± 6.0). This difference was statistically significant (p = 0.008).ConclusionsUS and CDUS are useful methods for identifying carotid PGLs also measuring less than 10 mm in diameter. However, diagnostic accuracy of US and CDUS is reduced in the measurement of the exact dimensions of the lesions.

Rib detection using pitch-catch ultrasound and classification algorithms for a novel ultrasound therapy device.

Project description:BackgroundNoninvasive ultrasound (US) has been used therapeutically for decades, with applications in tissue ablation, lithotripsy, and physical therapy. There is increasing evidence that low intensity US stimulation of organs can alter physiological and clinical outcomes for treatment of health disorders including rheumatoid arthritis and diabetes. One major translational challenge is designing portable and reliable US devices that can be used by patients in their homes, with automated features to detect rib location and aid in efficient transmission of energy to organs of interest. This feasibility study aimed to assess efficacy in rib bone detection without conventional imaging, using a single channel US pitch-catch technique integrated into an US therapy device to detect pulsed US reflections from ribs.MethodsIn 20 healthy volunteers, the location of the ribs and spleen were identified using a diagnostic US imaging system. Reflected ultrasound signals were recorded at five positions over the spleen and adjacent ribs using the therapy device. Signals were classified as between ribs (intercostal), partially over a rib, or fully over a rib using four models: threshold-based time domain classification, threshold-based frequency domain classification, logistic regression, and support vector machine (SVM).ResultsSVM performed best overall on the All Participants cohort with accuracy up to 96.25%. All models' accuracies were improved by separating participants into two cohorts based on Body Mass Index (BMI) and re-fitting each model. After separation into Low BMI and High BMI cohorts, a simple time-thresholding approach achieved accuracies up to 100% and 93.75%, respectively.ConclusionThese results demonstrate that US reflection signal classification can accurately provide low complexity, real-time automated onboard rib detection and user feedback to advance at-home therapeutic US delivery.

Evaluating and Improving Automatic Sleep Spindle Detection by Using Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithms.

Project description:Sleep spindles are brief bursts of brain activity in the sigma frequency range (11-16 Hz) measured by electroencephalography (EEG) mostly during non-rapid eye movement (NREM) stage 2 sleep. These oscillations are of great biological and clinical interests because they potentially play an important role in identifying and characterizing the processes of various neurological disorders. Conventionally, sleep spindles are identified by expert sleep clinicians via visual inspection of EEG signals. The process is laborious and the results are inconsistent among different experts. To resolve the problem, numerous computerized methods have been developed to automate the process of sleep spindle identification. Still, the performance of these automated sleep spindle detection methods varies inconsistently from study to study. There are two reasons: (1) the lack of common benchmark databases, and (2) the lack of commonly accepted evaluation metrics. In this study, we focus on tackling the second problem by proposing to evaluate the performance of a spindle detector in a multi-objective optimization context and hypothesize that using the resultant Pareto fronts for deriving evaluation metrics will improve automatic sleep spindle detection. We use a popular multi-objective evolutionary algorithm (MOEA), the Strength Pareto Evolutionary Algorithm (SPEA2), to optimize six existing frequency-based sleep spindle detection algorithms. They include three Fourier, one continuous wavelet transform (CWT), and two Hilbert-Huang transform (HHT) based algorithms. We also explore three hybrid approaches. Trained and tested on open-access DREAMS and MASS databases, two new hybrid methods of combining Fourier with HHT algorithms show significant performance improvement with F1-scores of 0.726-0.737.

RDD2020: An annotated image dataset for automatic road damage detection using deep learning.

Project description:This data article provides details for the RDD2020 dataset comprising 26,336 road images from India, Japan, and the Czech Republic with more than 31,000 instances of road damage. The dataset captures four types of road damage: longitudinal cracks, transverse cracks, alligator cracks, and potholes; and is intended for developing deep learning-based methods to detect and classify road damage automatically. The images in RDD2020 were captured using vehicle-mounted smartphones, making it useful for municipalities and road agencies to develop methods for low-cost monitoring of road pavement surface conditions. Further, the machine learning researchers can use the datasets for benchmarking the performance of different algorithms for solving other problems of the same type (image classification, object detection, etc.). RDD2020 is freely available at [1]. The latest updates and the corresponding articles related to the dataset can be accessed at [2].

Characterization and comparison of a 2-, 4- and 8-MHz central venous catheter ultrasound probe for venous air emboli detection

Project description:This paper presents a concept for detection of venous air emboli inside the superior vena cava using a central venous catheter with integrated Doppler ultrasound transducer installed on the tip. Several Doppler probes each with a single insonation frequencies of 2 MHz, 4 MHz or 8 MHz are characterized and compared for usefulness in this scenario. During in vitro experiments using an artificial blood circulatory with blood mimicking fluid bubbles with defined volumes were injected and recorded as gaseous embolic events. The in vitro results of measured embolus-blood-ratio values (EBR) in respect to the air bubbles volumes and its echogenicity showed a good correlation with the simulation model of spherical cross section scattering of such air bubbles. It is shown that the probe design still needs some improvements using a 4 MHz insonation frequency to get a useable detection sensitivity in such scenario within vena cava superior. The results suggest that it is possible to estimate the air bubble volume corresponding to the EBR using such a catheter probe.
