    Gunay, Mihriban; Yildirim, Ozal; Demir, Yakup; Zhilevski, Marin; Mikhov, Mikho; Yordanov, Nikolay

    This study proposes a hybrid deep learning framework that integrates supervised classification and unsupervised profiling for electricity consumption analysis. In the supervised phase, a one-dimensional Convolutional Neural Network combined with Long Short-Term Memory (1D CNN–LSTM) architecture is developed to classify daily load patterns. The performance of the proposed model is compared with traditional machine learning and deep learning approaches, including Support Vector Machine (SVM), k-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), a standalone Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) model, a Transformer-based model, and a standalone 1D CNN model. Experimental results on the Precon house dataset and the CU-BEMS dataset demonstrate that the proposed hybrid architecture outperforms the benchmark models, achieving classification accuracies of 87.59% and 86.40%, respectively. In the unsupervised phase, the trained CNN–LSTM encoder is utilized as a deep feature extractor. The resulting 32-dimensional latent embeddings are clustered using K-Means, Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM), Agglomerative, Spectral, and Ensemble methods. Clustering robustness is evaluated through bootstrap-based stability analysis using the Adjusted Rand Index (ARI) and the Normalized Mutual Information (NMI). The results demonstrate stable and interpretable electricity consumption profiles, particularly in the residential dataset, where near-perfect clustering stability is observed for K-Means. The proposed framework provides both improved classification performance and robust consumption profiling based on deep embedding, offering a practical tool for energy management.

    Ertargin, Merve; Orhan, Ahmet; Yildirim, Ozal; Gurgenc, Turan

    In this study, a fault detection system that classifies motor faults using deep learning without requiring any sensor connections inside or on the motor setup is proposed. The focus is on the electrical and mechanical faults of asynchronous motors, which are widely used in the industry. A mobile application developed using Flutter can collect vibration data using the three-axis accelerometer sensor in smartphones. By placing a smartphone with the application installed on the motor for which fault detection is desired, vibration data on three axes (x, y, z) is collected to train deep models. Subsequently, test data is used to identify the fault status and class of the electric motor. Different conditions and scenarios were created to test the adequacy of smartphone accelerometer sensors in detecting motor faults. Fault classification with vibration data obtained under different motor operating speeds in loaded and unloaded conditions achieved accuracy rates of over 99%.

    Microalgae possess significant potential in a wide range of applications due to their valuable bioactive compounds. They are utilized in biofuel production to reduce dependence on fossil fuels, in wastewater treatment for the biological removal of heavy metals and pollutants, in carbon capture for mitigating climate change, and in the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries as supplements. As their applications expand, the accurate and efficient identification of microalgal species becomes increasingly important. Traditional classification methods are time-consuming and rely heavily on expert knowledge. The main aim of this study is to develop a reliable, fast, and expert-independent deep learning-based approach for the classification of microalgae species using microscopic images. In this context, deep learning techniques, specifically convolutional neural network (CNN)-based models were employed to classify microalgal species. Four widely used pre-trained CNN architectures (ResNet152, DenseNet201, MobileNetV2, and EfficientNetB0), along with a custom-designed CNN, were implemented. The models were trained and tested on a labeled dataset consisting of microscopic images of Chlorella vulgaris, Scenedesmus acutus, and Haematococcus pluvialis. The classification models achieved accuracy rates ranging from 96.87 % (Custom CNN) to 100 % (DenseNet201), demonstrating the potential of CNN-based approaches in automating and improving microalgae species identification.

    Ertargin, Merve; Yildirim, Ozal; Orhan, Ahmet; Benedicenti, L.

    For industrial systems to be reliable and efficient, motor faults detection is important. Conventional methods of fault detection are typically expensive and time-consuming. The ability to detection motor faults has advanced significantly in recent years thanks to the application of deep learning techniques. Deep learning algorithms have the ability to automatically extract complicated features from big data sets, which can speed up and improve the accuracy of motor faults detection. Since collecting motor acoustic data is cost-effective and easy, it is advantageous to use it in fault detection. In this study, motor acoustic signals were converted into spectrograms and faults in induction motors were detected using a transfer learning approach with pre-trained models. Totally 8-class fault detection was performed with an accuracy rate of 91.52% using VGG16 and 92.11% using VGG19.

    Deep Neural Network Trained on Surface ECG Improves Diagnostic Accuracy of Prior Myocardial Infarction over Q Wave Analysis

    Yildirim, Ozal; Baloglu, Ulas B; Talo, Muhammed; Ganesan, Prasanth; Tung, Jagteshwar S; Kang, Guson; Tooley, James; Alhusseini, Mahmood I.; Baykaner, Tina; Wang, Paul J.

    Clinical screening of myocardial infarction is important for preventative treatment and risk stratification in cardiology practice, however current detection by electrocardiogram Q-wave analysis provides only modest accuracy for assessing prior cardiac events. We set out to evaluate the ability of a deep neural network trained on the electrocardiogram to identify patients with clinical history of myocardial infarction. We assessed 608 patients at two academic centers with adjudicated history of myocardial infarction. Surface electrocardiograms were used to train a neural network-based model that classifies patients with and without a history of infarction. Endpoints were assessed by clinical record review and accuracy of the model was compared against the manual assessment of pathologic Q waves. The neural network outperformed the accuracy of pathologic Q waves (62%). In training, the model accuracy converged to >98%. Validation was performed by cross-validation (k=5) with validation accuracy 71 ± 5%. Receiver-operator characteristics analysis resulted in a c-statistic of 0.730. Deep learning of a 12-lead ECG can identify features of prior myocardial injury more accurately than clinical Q-wave analysis and may serve as a valuable clinical screening tool.

    Ozturk, Tulin; Talo, Muhammed; Yildirim, Eylul Azra; Baloglu, Ulas Baran; Yildirim, Ozal; Rajendra Acharya, U.

    The novel coronavirus 2019 (COVID-2019), which first appeared in Wuhan city of China in December 2019, spread rapidly around the world and became a pandemic. It has caused a devastating effect on both daily lives, public health, and the global economy. It is critical to detect the positive cases as early as possible so as to prevent the further spread of this epidemic and to quickly treat affected patients. The need for auxiliary diagnostic tools has increased as there are no accurate automated toolkits available. Recent findings obtained using radiology imaging techniques suggest that such images contain salient information about the COVID-19 virus. Application of advanced artificial intelligence (AI) techniques coupled with radiological imaging can be helpful for the accurate detection of this disease, and can also be assistive to overcome the problem of a lack of specialized physicians in remote villages. In this study, a new model for automatic COVID-19 detection using raw chest X-ray images is presented. The proposed model is developed to provide accurate diagnostics for binary classification (COVID vs. No-Findings) and multi-class classification (COVID vs. No-Findings vs. Pneumonia). Our model produced a classification accuracy of 98.08% for binary classes and 87.02% for multi-class cases. The DarkNet model was used in our study as a classifier for the you only look once (YOLO) real time object detection system. We implemented 17 convolutional layers and introduced different filtering on each layer. Our model (available at (https://github.com/muhammedtalo/COVID-19)) can be employed to assist radiologists in validating their initial screening, and can also be employed via cloud to immediately screen patients.

    Celik, Yusuf; Talo, Muhammed; Yildirim, Ozal; Karabatak, Murat; Acharya, U Rajendra

    Advances in artificial intelligence technologies have made it possible to obtain more accurate and reliable results using digital images. Due to the advances in digital histopathological images obtained using whole slide image (WSI) scanners, automated analysis of digital images by computer support systems has become interesting. In particular, deep learning architectures, are one of the preferred approaches in the analysis of digital histopathology images. The deeper networks trained on large amounts of image data are adapted for different tasks using transfer learning technique. In this study, automated detection of invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC), which is the most common subtype of breast cancers, is proposed using deep transfer learning technique. We have used deep learning pre-trained models, ResNet-50 and DenseNet-161 for the IDC detection task. The public histopathology dataset containing 277,524 image patches were used in our experimental studies. As a result of training on the last layers of pre-trained deep networks, DenseNet-161 model has yielded F-sore of 92.38% and balanced accuracy value of 91.57%. Similarly, we have obtained F-score of 94.11% and balanced accuracy value of 90.96% using ResNet-50 architecture. In addition, our developed model is validated using the publicly available BreakHis breast cancer dataset and obtained promising results in classifying magnification independent histopathology images into benign and malignant classes.

    Accurate deep neural network model to detect cardiac arrhythmia on more than 10,000 individual subject ECG records

    Yildirim, Ozal; Talo, Muhammed; Ciaccio, Edward J.; Tan, Ru San; Acharya, U Rajendra

    Background and objective: Cardiac arrhythmia, which is an abnormal heart rhythm, is a common clinical problem in cardiology. Detection of arrhythmia on an extended duration electrocardiogram (ECG) is done based on initial algorithmic software screening, with final visual validation by cardiologists. It is a time consuming and subjective process. Therefore, fully automated computer-assisted detection systems with a high degree of accuracy have an essential role in this task. In this study, we proposed an effective deep neural network (DNN) model to detect different rhythm classes from a new ECG database. Methods: Our DNN model was designed for high performance on all ECG leads. The proposed model, which included both representation learning and sequence learning tasks, showed promising results on all 12-lead inputs. Convolutional layers and sub-sampling layers were used in the representation learning phase. The sequence learning part involved a long short-term memory (LSTM) unit after representation of learning layers. Results: We performed two different class scenarios, including reduced rhythms (seven rhythm types) and merged rhythms (four rhythm types) according to the records from the database. Our trained DNN model achieved 92.24% and 96.13% accuracies for the reduced and merged rhythm classes, respectively. Conclusion: Recently, deep learning algorithms have been found to be useful because of their high performance. The main challenge is the scarcity of appropriate training and testing resources because model performance is dependent on the quality and quantity of case samples. In this study, we used a new public arrhythmia database comprising more than 10,000 records. We constructed an efficient DNN model for automated detection of arrhythmia using these records.

    CONVOLUTIONAL LONG-SHORT TERM MEMORY NETWORKS MODEL FOR LONG DURATION EEG SIGNAL CLASSIFICATION

    Baloglu, Ulas Baran; Yildirim, Ozal

    Background and objective: Deep learning structures have recently achieved remarkable success in the field of machine learning. Convolutional neural networks (CNN) in image processing and long-short term memory (LSTM) in the time-series analysis are commonly used deep learning algorithms. Healthcare applications of deep learning algorithms provide important contributions for computer-aided diagnosis research. In this study, convolutional long-short term memory (CLSTM) network was used for automatic classification of EEG signals and automatic seizure detection. Methods: A new nine-layer deep network model consisting of convolutional and LSTM layers was designed. The signals processed in the convolutional layers were given as an input to the LSTM network whose outputs were processed in densely connected neural network layers. The EEG data is appropriate for a model having 1-D convolution layers. A bidirectional model was employed in the LSTM layer. Results: Bonn University EEG database with five different datasets was used for experimental studies. In this database, each dataset contains 23.6 s duration 100 single channel EEG segments which consist of 4097 dimensional samples (173.61 Hz). Eight two-class and three three-class clinical scenarios were examined. When the experimental results were evaluated, it was seen that the proposed model had high accuracy on both binary and ternary classification tasks. Conclusions: The proposed end-to-end learning structure showed a good performance without using any hand-crafted feature extraction or shallow classifiers to detect the seizures. The model does not require filtering, and also automatically learns to filter the input as well. As a result, the proposed model can process long duration EEG signals without applying segmentation, and can detect epileptic seizures automatically by using the correlation of ictal and interictal signals of raw data.

    Extreme learning machine (ELM) and deep learning methods are well-known with their efficiency, accuracy, and speed. In this study, we focus on the application of ELM to a deep learning structure for person recognition with facial expressions. For this purpose, a new convolutional neural network (CNN) model containing Kernel ELM classifiers was constructed. In this model, ELM was not used only as a fully connected layer replacement and energy function was employed to generate feature maps for the ELM. There are two advantages of the proposed model. First, it is fast and successful in face recognition studies. Second, it can drastically improve the performance of a partially-trained CNN model. Consequently, the proposed model is very suitable for CNN models, where the learning process requires a lot of time and computational power. The model is tested with the Grimace data set and experimental results are presented in details.

    Classification of myocardial infarction with multi-lead ECG signals and deep CNN

    Baloglu, Ulas Baran; Talo, Muhammed; Yildirim, Ozal; Tan, Ru San; Acharya, U Rajendra

    Myocardial infarction (MI), commonly known as heart attack, causes irreversible damage to heart muscles and even leads to death. Rapid and accurate diagnosis of MI is critical to avoid death. Blood tests and electrocardiogram (ECG) signals are used to diagnose acute MI. However, for an increase in blood enzyme values, a certain time must pass after the attack. This time lag may delay MI diagnosis. Hence, ECG diagnosis is still very important. Manual ECG interpretation requires expertise and is prone to inter-observer variability. Therefore, computer aided diagnosis may be useful in automatic detection of MI on ECG. In this study, a deep learning model with an end-to-end structure on the standard 12-lead ECG signal for the diagnosis of MI is proposed. For this purpose, the most commonly used technique, convolutional neural network (CNN) is used. Our trained CNN model with the proposed architecture yielded impressive accuracy and sensitivity performance over 99.00% for MI diagnosis on all ECG lead signals. Thus, the proposed model has the potential to provide high performance on MI detection which can be used in wearable technologies and intensive care units.

    A new approach for arrhythmia classification using deep coded features and LSTM networks

    Yildirim, Ozal; Baloglu, Ulas Baran; Tan, Ru-San; Ciaccio, Edward J.; Acharya, U. Rajendra

    Background and objective: For diagnosis of arrhythmic heart problems, electrocardiogram (ECG)signals should be recorded and monitored. The long-term signal records obtained are analyzed by expert cardiologists. Devices such as the Holter monitor have limited hardware capabilities. For improved diagnostic capacity, it would be helpful to detect arrhythmic signals automatically. In this study, a novel approach is presented as a candidate solution for these issues. Methods: A convolutional auto-encoder (CAE)based nonlinear compression structure is implemented to reduce the signal size of arrhythmic beats. Long-short term memory (LSTM)classifiers are employed to automatically recognize arrhythmias using ECG features, which are deeply coded with the CAE network. Results: Based upon the coded ECG signals, both storage requirement and classification time were considerably reduced. In experimental studies conducted with the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database, ECG signals were compressed by an average 0.70% percentage root mean square difference (PRD)rate, and an accuracy of over 99.0% was observed. Conclusions: One of the significant contributions of this study is that the proposed approach can significantly reduce time duration when using LSTM networks for data analysis. Thus, a novel and effective approach was proposed for both ECG signal compression, and their high-performance automatic recognition, with very low computational cost.

    Convolutional neural networks for multi-class brain disease detection using MRI images

    Talo, Muhammed; Yildirim, Ozal; Baloglu, Ulas Baran; Aydin, Galip; Acharya, U Rajendra

    The brain disorders may cause loss of some critical functions such as thinking, speech, and movement. So, the early detection of brain diseases may help to get the timely best treatment. One of the conventional methods used to diagnose these disorders is the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique. Manual diagnosis of brain abnormalities is time-consuming and difficult to perceive the minute changes in the MRI images, especially in the early stages of abnormalities. Proper selection of the features and classifiers to obtain the highest performance is a challenging task. Hence, deep learning models have been widely used for medical image analysis over the past few years. In this study, we have employed the AlexNet, Vgg-16, ResNet-18, ResNet-34, and ResNet-50 pre-trained models to automatically classify MR images in to normal, cerebrovascular, neoplastic, degenerative, and inflammatory diseases classes. We have also compared their classification performance with pre-trained models, which are the state-of-art architectures. We have obtained the best classification accuracy of 95.23% ± 0.6 with the ResNet-50 model among the five pre-trained models. Our model is ready to be tested with huge MRI images of brain abnormalities. The outcome of the model will also help the clinicians to validate their findings after manual reading of the MRI images.

    Classification of multiple power quality events via compressed deep learning

    Liu, Hui; Hussain, Fida; Yue, Shen; Yildirim, Ozal; Yawar, Sheikh Junaid

    This paper presents a recently established compressed sensing (CS) and sparse autoencoder (SAE) based on deep learning (DL) method for classification of single and multiple power quality disturbances (PQDs). The CS technique is paying considerable attention in recent years due to below sampling rate comparatively Nyquist sampling. Initially, the CS technique is applied to extract the features of PQD waveforms. The extracted features are applied as inputs to the sparse autoencoder based on DL for classification of nine single and 22 combined classes of PQDs. The DL helps to remove a redundant feature and improves classification performance. Finally, backpropagation is applied to fine-tune the entire network. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm has been tested with more than 6580 numbers of real and synthetic single and multiple PQD data, and the results are recorded. High correct classification rate is obtained with noise and without noise level. Noise level was considered from 20 to 50 dB. The performance of the proposed technique has been assessed by comparing the results against recently reported methods. Results show that the proposed CS- and SAE-based DL algorithms can be efficiently used for single and multiple PQDs classifications.

    Automated detection of diabetic subject using pre-trained 2D-CNN models with frequency spectrum images extracted from heart rate signals

    Yildirim, Ozal; Talo, Muhammed; Ay, B.; Baloglu, Ulas Baran; Aydin, G.; Acharya, U. Rajendra

    In this study, a deep-transfer learning approach is proposed for the automated diagnosis of diabetes mellitus (DM), using heart rate (HR) signals obtained from electrocardiogram (ECG) data. Recent progress in deep learning has contributed significantly to improvement in the quality of healthcare. In order for deep learning models to perform well, large datasets are required for training. However, a difficulty in the biomedical field is the lack of clinical data with expert annotation. A recent, commonly implemented technique to train deep learning models using small datasets is to transfer the weighting, developed from a large dataset, to the current model. This deep learning transfer strategy is generally employed for two-dimensional signals. Herein, the weighting of models pre-trained using two-dimensional large image data was applied to one-dimensional HR signals. The one-dimensional HR signals were then converted into frequency spectrum images, which were utilized for application to well-known pre-trained models, specifically: AlexNet, VggNet, ResNet, and DenseNet. The DenseNet pre-trained model yielded the highest classification average accuracy of 97.62%, and sensitivity of 100%, to detect DM subjects via HR signal recordings. In the future, we intend to further test this developed model by utilizing additional data along with cloud-based storage to diagnose DM via heart signal analysis.
