Remaining Useful Life Estimation Using Deep Convolutional Generative Adversarial Networks Based on an Autoencoder Scheme.

ABSTRACT: Accurate predictions of remaining useful life (RUL) of important components play a crucial role in system reliability, which is the basis of prognostics and health management (PHM). This paper proposed an integrated deep learning approach for RUL prediction of a turbofan engine by integrating an autoencoder (AE) with a deep convolutional generative adversarial network (DCGAN). In the pretraining stage, the reconstructed data of the AE not only participate in its error reconstruction but also take part in the DCGAN parameter training as the generated data of the DCGAN. Through double-error reconstructions, the capability of feature extraction is enhanced, and high-level abstract information is obtained. In the fine-tuning stage, a long short-term memory (LSTM) network is used to extract the sequential information from the features to predict the RUL. The effectiveness of the proposed scheme is verified on the NASA commercial modular aero-propulsion system simulation (C-MAPSS) dataset. The superiority of the proposed method is demonstrated via excellent prediction performance and comparisons with other existing state-of-the-art prognostics. The results of this study suggest that the proposed data-driven prognostic method offers a new and promising prediction approach and an efficient feature extraction scheme.

Project description:PurposeEstimating the surgery length has the potential to be utilized as skill assessment, surgical training, or efficient surgical facility utilization especially if it is done in real-time as a remaining surgery duration (RSD). Surgical length reflects a certain level of efficiency and mastery of the surgeon in a well-standardized surgery such as cataract surgery. In this paper, we design and develop a real-time RSD estimation method for cataract surgery that does not require manual labeling and is transferable with minimum fine-tuning.MethodsA regression method consisting of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and long short-term memory (LSTM) is designed for RSD estimation. The model is firstly trained and evaluated for the single main surgeon with a large number of surgeries. Then, the fine-tuning strategy is used to transfer the model to the data of the other two surgeons. Mean Absolute Error (MAE in seconds) was used to evaluate the performance of the RSD estimation. The proposed method is compared with the naïve method which is based on the statistic of the historical data. A transferability experiment is also set to demonstrate the generalizability of the method.ResultThe mean surgical time for the sample videos was 318.7 s (s) (standard deviation 83.4 s) for the main surgeon for the initial training. In our experiments, the lowest MAE of 19.4 s (equal to about 6.4% of the mean surgical time) is achieved by our best-trained model for the independent test data of the main target surgeon. It reduces the MAE by 35.5 s (-10.2%) compared to the naïve method. The fine-tuning strategy transfers the model trained for the main target to the data of other surgeons with only a small number of training data (20% of the pre-training). The MAEs for the other two surgeons are 28.3 s and 30.6 s with the fine-tuning model, which decreased by -8.1 s and -7.5 s than the Per-surgeon model (average declining of -7.8 s and 1.3% of video duration). External validation study with Cataract-101 outperformed 3 reported methods of TimeLSTM, RSDNet, and CataNet.ConclusionAn approach to build a pre-trained model for estimating RSD estimation based on a single surgeon and then transfer to other surgeons demonstrated both low prediction error and good transferability with minimum fine-tuning videos.

Project description:PurposeComplementary information obtained from multiple contrasts of tissue facilitates physicians assessing, diagnosing and planning treatment of a variety of diseases. However, acquiring multiple contrasts magnetic resonance images (MRI) for every patient using multiple pulse sequences is time-consuming and expensive, where, medical image synthesis has been demonstrated as an effective alternative. The purpose of this study is to develop a unified framework for multimodal MR image synthesis.MethodsA unified generative adversarial network consisting of only a single generator and a single discriminator was developed to learn the mappings among images of four different modalities. The generator took an image and its modality label as inputs and learned to synthesize the image in the target modality, while the discriminator was trained to distinguish between real and synthesized images and classify them to their corresponding modalities. The network was trained and tested using multimodal brain MRI consisting of four different contrasts which are T1-weighted (T1), T1-weighted and contrast-enhanced (T1c), T2-weighted (T2), and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (Flair). Quantitative assessments of our proposed method were made through computing normalized mean absolute error (NMAE), peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), structural similarity index measurement (SSIM), visual information fidelity (VIF), and naturalness image quality evaluator (NIQE).ResultsThe proposed model was trained and tested on a cohort of 274 glioma patients with well-aligned multi-types of MRI scans. After the model was trained, tests were conducted by using each of T1, T1c, T2, Flair as a single input modality to generate its respective rest modalities. Our proposed method shows high accuracy and robustness for image synthesis with arbitrary MRI modality that is available in the database as input. For example, with T1 as input modality, the NMAEs for the generated T1c, T2, Flair respectively are 0.034 ± 0.005, 0.041 ± 0.006, and 0.041 ± 0.006, the PSNRs respectively are 32.353 ± 2.525 dB, 30.016 ± 2.577 dB, and 29.091 ± 2.795 dB, the SSIMs are 0.974 ± 0.059, 0.969 ± 0.059, and 0.959 ± 0.059, the VIF are 0.750 ± 0.087, 0.706 ± 0.097, and 0.654 ± 0.062, and NIQE are 1.396 ± 0.401, 1.511 ± 0.460, and 1.259 ± 0.358, respectively.ConclusionsWe proposed a novel multimodal MR image synthesis method based on a unified generative adversarial network. The network takes an image and its modality label as inputs and synthesizes multimodal images in a single forward pass. The results demonstrate that the proposed method is able to accurately synthesize multimodal MR images from a single MR image.
