Optical Hole Burning and Thermal Irreversibility of Non-Ergodic Systems: Polymers, Proteins, Glasses
1989
A spectral hole is used to probe configurational dynamics of non-ergodic systems far below the glass transition temperature
From orientational glasses to structural glasses: What computer simulations have contributed to understand experiments
2002
Abstract Orientational glasses, produced by random dilution of molecular crystals, exhibit a freezing transition of the quadrupole moments. Monte Carlo simulations of lattice models (generalization of the Edwards–Anderson spin glass model) have been used to elucidate this behavior. While short range models exhibit a static glass transition at zero temperature only, the infinite range Potts glass exhibits a transition where a glass order parameter appears discontinuously. At higher temperature, a dynamical transition occurs, described by mode-coupling theory (MCT). MCT has also been tested by Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics simulations of coarse-grained models of glass-forming polymers. W…

LightSleepNet: A Lightweight Deep Model for Rapid Sleep Stage Classification with Spectrograms.
2021
Deep learning has achieved unprecedented success in sleep stage classification tasks, which starts to pave the way for potential real-world applications. However, due to its enormous size, deployment of deep neural networks is hindered by high cost at various aspects, such as computation power, storage, network bandwidth, power consumption, and hardware complexity. For further practical applications (e.g., wearable sleep monitoring devices), there is a need for simple and compact models. In this paper, we propose a lightweight model, namely LightSleepNet, for rapid sleep stage classification based on spectrograms. Our model is assembled by a much fewer number of model parameters compared to…
Development of Neural Network Prediction Models for the Energy Producibility of a Parabolic Dish: A Comparison with the Analytical Approach
2022
Solar energy is one of the most widely exploited renewable/sustainable resources for electricity generation, with photovoltaic and concentrating solar power technologies at the forefront of research. This study focuses on the development of a neural network prediction model aimed at assessing the energy producibility of dish–Stirling systems, testing the methodology and offering a useful tool to support the design and sizing phases of the system at different installation sites. Employing the open-source platform TensorFlow, two different classes of feedforward neural networks were developed and validated (multilayer perceptron and radial basis function). The absolute novelty of this approac…
One-Dimensional Convolutional Neural Networks Combined with Channel Selection Strategy for Seizure Prediction Using Long-Term Intracranial EEG
2022
Seizure prediction using intracranial electroencephalogram (iEEG) has attracted an increasing attention during recent years. iEEG signals are commonly recorded in the form of multiple channels. Many previous studies generally used the iEEG signals of all channels to predict seizures, ignoring the consideration of channel selection. In this study, a method of one-dimensional convolutional neural networks (1D-CNN) combined with channel selection strategy was proposed for seizure prediction. First, we used 30-s sliding windows to segment the raw iEEG signals. Then, the 30-s iEEG segments, which were in three channel forms (single channel, channels only from seizure onset or free zone and all c…
One and Two Dimensional Convolutional Neural Networks for Seizure Detection Using EEG Signals
2021
Deep learning for the automated detection of epileptic seizures has received much attention during recent years. In this work, one dimensional convolutional neural network (1D-CNN) and two dimensional convolutional neural network (2D-CNN) are simultaneously used on electroencephalogram (EEG) data for seizure detection. Firstly, using sliding windows without overlap on raw EEG to obtain the definite one-dimension time EEG segments (1D-T), and continuous wavelet transform (CWT) for 1D-T signals to obtain the two-dimension time-frequency representations (2D-TF). Then, 1D-CNN and 2D-CNN model architectures are used on 1D-T and 2D-TF signals for automatic classification, respectively. Finally, t…
Computational Modeling of Human Visual Function using Psychophysics, Deep Neural Networks, and Information Theory
2023
Visual perception is a key to unlocking the secrets of brain functions because most of the information is processed through the early visual system and then transmitted to the high-level cognitive perception brain regions. The brain functions as a self-organizing, bio-dynamic, and chaotic system that receives outside information and then decomposes it into pieces of information that can be processed efficiently and independently. The work connects natural image statistics, psychophysics, deep neural networks, and information theory to perceptual vision systems to explore how vision processes information from the outside world and how the information coupled drives functional connectivity be…
The role of expert evaluation for microsleep detection
2015
Abstract Recently, it has been shown by overnight driving simulation studies that microsleep density is the only known sleepiness indicator which rapidly increases within a few seconds immediately before sleepiness related crashes. This indicator is based solely on EEG and EOG and subsequent adaptive pattern recognition. Accurate microsleep recognition is very important for the performance of this sleepiness indicator. The question is whether expensive evaluations of microsleep events by a) experts are necessary or b) non-experts provide sufficient evaluations. Based on 11,114 microsleep events in case a) and 12,787 in case b) recognition accuracies were investigated utilizing (i) artificia…
Principal Component and Neural Network Analyses of Face Images: What Can Be Generalized in Gender Classification?
1998
We present an overview of the major findings of the principal component analysis (pca) approach to facial analysis. In a neural network or connectionist framework, this approach is known as the linear autoassociator approach. Faces are represented as a weighted sum of macrofeatures (eigenvectors or eigenfaces) extracted from a cross-product matrix of face images. Using gender categorization as an illustration, we analyze the robustness of this type of facial representation. We show that eigenvectors representing general categorical information can be estimated using a very small set of faces and that the information they convey is generalizable to new faces of the same population and to a l…
