Pulse-Wave-Pattern Classification with a Convolutional Neural Network.

ABSTRACT: Owing to the diversity of pulse-wave morphology, pulse-based diagnosis is difficult, especially pulse-wave-pattern classification (PWPC). A powerful method for PWPC is a convolutional neural network (CNN). It outperforms conventional methods in pattern classification due to extracting informative abstraction and features. For previous PWPC criteria, the relationship between pulse and disease types is not clear. In order to improve the clinical practicability, there is a need for a CNN model to find the one-to-one correspondence between pulse pattern and disease categories. In this study, five cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and complications were extracted from medical records as classification criteria to build pulse data set 1. Four physiological parameters closely related to the selected diseases were also extracted as classification criteria to build data set 2. An optimized CNN model with stronger feature extraction capability for pulse signals was proposed, which achieved PWPC with 95% accuracy in data set 1 and 89% accuracy in data set 2. It demonstrated that pulse waves are the result of multiple physiological parameters. There are limitations when using a single physiological parameter to characterise the overall pulse pattern. The proposed CNN model can achieve high accuracy of PWPC while using CVD and complication categories as classification criteria.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Recently, deep learning technologies have rapidly expanded into medical image analysis, including both disease detection and classification. As far as we know, migraine is a disabling and common neurological disorder, typically characterized by unilateral, throbbing and pulsating headaches. Unfortunately, a large number of migraineurs do not receive the accurate diagnosis when using traditional diagnostic criteria based on the guidelines of the International Headache Society. As such, there is substantial interest in developing automated methods to assist in the diagnosis of migraine. METHODS:To the best of our knowledge, no studies have evaluated the potential of deep learning technologies in assisting with the classification of migraine patients. Here, we used deep learning methods in combination with three functional measures (the amplitude of low-frequency fluctuations, regional homogeneity and regional functional correlation strength) based on rs-fMRI data to distinguish not only between migraineurs and healthy controls, but also between the two subtypes of migraine. We employed 21 migraine patients without aura, 15 migraineurs with aura, and 28 healthy controls. RESULTS:Compared with the traditional support vector machine classifier, which has an accuracy of 83.67%, our Inception module-based convolutional neural network approach showed a significant improvement in classification output (over 86.18%). Our data also indicate that the Inception module-based CNN performs better than the AlexNet-based CNN (Inception module-based CNN reached an accuracy of 99.25%). Finally, we also found that regional functional correlation strength (RFCS) could be regarded as the optimum input out of the three indices (ALFF, ReHo, RFCS). CONCLUSIONS:Overall, our study shows that combining the three functional measures of rs-fMRI with deep learning classification is a powerful method to distinguish between migraineurs and healthy individuals. Our data also highlight that deep learning-based frameworks could be used to develop more complicated models or systems to aid in clinical decision making in the future.
