Motor Control-Based Assessment Of Therapy Effects In Individuals Post-Stroke: Implications For Prediction Of Response And Subject-Specific Modifications, Ashley Rice May 2021

Motor Control-Based Assessment Of Therapy Effects In Individuals Post-Stroke: Implications For Prediction Of Response And Subject-Specific Modifications, Ashley Rice

Doctoral Dissertations

Producing a coordinated motion such as walking is, at its root, the result of healthy communication pathways between the central nervous system and the musculoskeletal system. The central nervous system produces an electrical signal responsible for the excitation of a muscle, and the musculoskeletal system contains the necessary equipment for producing a movement-driving force to achieve a desired motion. Motor control refers to the ability an individual has to produce a desired motion, and the complexity of motor control is a mathematical concept stemming from how the electrical signals from the central nervous system translate to muscle activations. Exercising a …


Optimal Analytical Methods For High Accuracy Cardiac Disease Classification And Treatment Based On Ecg Data, Jianwei Zheng May 2021

Optimal Analytical Methods For High Accuracy Cardiac Disease Classification And Treatment Based On Ecg Data, Jianwei Zheng

Computational and Data Sciences (PhD) Dissertations

This work constitutes six projects. In the first project, a newly inaugurated research database for 12-lead electrocardiogram signals was created under the auspices of Chapman University and Shaoxing People's Hospital (Shaoxing Hospital Zhejiang University School of Medicine). This database aims to enable the scientific community in conducting new studies on arrhythmia and other cardiovascular conditions. In the second project, we created a new 12-lead ECG database under the auspices of Chapman University and Ningbo First Hospital of Zhejiang University that aims to provide high quality data enabling detection of the distinctions between idiopathic ventricular arrhythmia from right ventricular outflow tract …


Using Deep Learning To Analyze Materials In Medical Images, Carson Molder May 2021

Using Deep Learning To Analyze Materials In Medical Images, Carson Molder

Computer Science and Computer Engineering Undergraduate Honors Theses

Modern deep learning architectures have become increasingly popular in medicine, especially for analyzing medical images. In some medical applications, deep learning image analysis models have been more accurate at predicting medical conditions than experts. Deep learning has also been effective for material analysis on photographs. We aim to leverage deep learning to perform material analysis on medical images. Because material datasets for medicine are scarce, we first introduce a texture dataset generation algorithm that automatically samples desired textures from annotated or unannotated medical images. Second, we use a novel Siamese neural network called D-CNN to predict patch similarity and build …
