Advancing ECG Analysis through Machine Learning: A Study on Data Generation for ECG Classification and Feature Selection For Individual Survival Prediction
DownloadSpring 2024
Electrocardiograms (ECGs) are a valuable and easily-collected measurement of heart health, reflecting its morphology (R peak, QRS duration,..) and rhythm(sequence of multiple heartbeats). With the advance of machine learning, many studies utilize electrocardiogram (ECG) signals for various...

Advancing Our Understanding of Speech Motor Control Through an Investigation of Intermuscular Coherence in Typical Speakers
DownloadFall 2023
There is a need to characterize intermuscular coherence (IMC) in selected muscles of the speech mechanism in order to establish its utility as a tool to study speech motor control. IMC is a correlation in the frequency domain that provides information about whether two signals (i.e.,...
