In this article, the design and development aspects of a compact bio-potential measuring system, named ExGSense, is presented. Two versions of the prototype have been developed;first one can measure 3 + 1 V leads in time-multiplexed fashion, while the other can measure 3 + 1 V leads simultaneously. This article also presents an efficient algorithm for filtering electrocardiogram signals which is required to attenuate the effect of motion artefacts which are inevitable in wearable systems. Further, a user-friendly interface for PC and smartphone has also been developed. By the virtue of an ultra-low noise instrumentation amplifier and the programmability of gain and bandwidth of the bio-signal measuring system, a number of other bio-potential signals like EMG, EOG and EEG have been successfully recorded using disposable, off-the-shelf wet Ag/AgCl electrodes.

The Doppler ultrasound fetal heart signals are work and complex, while the background noise is strong. It results in many problems for household integrated Doppler fetal heart monitors. such as low sensitivity, small measuring area, low accuracy of fetal heart rates, and self-excited howling. A fetal heart signal processing algorithm is proposed in this paper, which includes the adaptive demising method based on spectral subtraction and the non-linear self-excitation suppression processingalgorithm. The measuring results in a Doppler ultrasound fetal heart simulator and pregnant women show that the good denoising effect can been achieved and the signal-to-noise of the signals can been greatly enhanced by the proposed algorithm. Also, the sensitivity of fetal heart measurement is improved and the self-excited howling is eliminated effectively.

This paper proposes an innovative rail pressure sensor signal processing algorithm to determine the start of injection and end of injection for single or multiple injections of diesel engines with a common rail injection system (CRIS). The importance of fuel injection timing (FIT) and fuel injection volume (FIV) in the CRIS is discussed, as well as the current progress of research in this field. The working principle of a solenoid valve injector is also described, pressure wave propagation is analyzed, and the characteristics of pressure waves are studied by simulation and experiments. The proposed algorithm has high reliability and flexibility and can be adjusted in real time according to engine operating status. The algorithm can effectively avoid the defects and shortcomings of traditional engine matching calibration, enhance the control precision of the FIT and FIV, improve the consistency and stability of fuel injection, and is expected to promote the performance of engine on fuel economy and pollutant emissions. The hardware implementation of this algorithm in practical ECU is also presented.

On the basis of the real data acquired with an X-band airborne wide-area surveillance (WAS)-GMTI radar, a practical signal processing algorithm for WAS-GMTI mode is proposed, and it is simple and effective for real-time processing. The key feature of the new algorithm is that the spatial steering vector and fixed channel error are estimated according to the result of the Doppler centroid estimation. This is due to the fact that the angle corresponding to the Doppler centroid is just the antenna look direction. In this study, the detailed description of the algorithm is presented with four steps: pre-processing, clutter suppression, constant false alarm rate detection and parameter estimation. Besides, to observe the effect of the proposed algorithm, the real data processing results are shown after each step. Finally, moving target positioning results of five successive scan periods is presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the new algorithm.

Nanopore technology holds great promise for a wide range of applications such as biomedical sensing, chemical detection, desalination, and energy conversion. For sensing performed in electrolytes in particular, abundant information about the translocating analytes is hidden in the fluctuating monitoring ionic current contributed from interactions between the analytes and the nanopore. Such ionic currents are inevitably affected by noise;hence, signalprocessing is an inseparable component of sensing in order to identify the hidden features in the signals and to analyze them. This Guide starts from untangling the signalprocessing flow and categorizing the various algorithms developed to extracting the useful information. By sorting the algorithms under Machine Learning (ML)-based versus non-ML-based, their underlying architectures and properties are systematically evaluated. For each category, the development tactics and features of the algorithms with implementation examples are discussed by referring to their common signalprocessing flow graphically summarized in a chart and by highlighting their key issues tabulated for clear comparison. How to get started with building up an ML-based algorithm is subsequently presented. The specific properties of the ML-based algorithms are then discussed in terms of learning strategy, performance evaluation, experimental repeatability and reliability, data preparation, and data utilization strategy. This Guide is concluded by outlining strategies and considerations for prospect algorithms.

Many disabled people are not suitable for the control of the current mainstream manual joystick-controlled wheelchair, so the study of new control methods can provide convenience for these people, including bioelectrical signal control, voice control, and visual control, but these control methods have peripheral equipment complex or susceptible to environmental noise interference, in contrast. These problems can be solved effectively by using a wearable flexible sensor to recognize human movement signal. To collect and identify the strain signal characteristics of the moving neck muscles, based on the principle of flexible piezoresistive sensor, we designed and produced a K-carrageenan at polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) flexible sensor, designed a series of experiments to explore the conductive properties, mechanical properties, and air permeability of the sensor, and also designed the peripheral acquisition circuit and signal processing algorithm. Finally, the empirical mode decomposition (EMD)-long short-term memory (LSTM) algorithm is used to classify the signal and explore the feasibility of fitting the signal to the human neck to control the wheelchair. The results show that the maximum tensile rate of the sensor designed by us is as high as 180%, and the air permeability is also improved slightly. After 1000 cycles of stretching, the sensor still has good performance and can effectively collect human neck action signals. Through the field test, the accuracy of this system is up to 95%, which provides a new idea for wheelchair control.

This article reports an experimental system of light health and therapy driven by Artificial intelligence (AI) technology. Light health and therapy, also known as phototherapy, is a therapy used to treat a variety of depression and neurodegenerative diseases, such as Seasonal Affective disorder (SAD) and Alzheimer's Disease (AD). Light therapy affect activity, functional connectivity and plasticity of multiple brain regions by adjusting the frequency and color temperature of illuminating system. The retina converts photon into electrical signals and transmits these stimulus into central nervous system to make resonances and oscillations to boost human mood and improve cognitive function. In life science, non-imaging vision system refers to light signal projected to the higher brain region through intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cell (ipRGC cell) to participate in the regulation of circadian rhythm, emotion, cognition and other functions. The mechanism of this physiological phenomenon is not fully understood. This article introduce AI technology to make a closed loop experimental system to study this phenomenon. The goal of this paper is to use AI technology to analyze the input light stimulus and human physiological electrical signals, and try to find out the corresponding nonlinear relationship to guide the stimulation of light therapy.
