EasiCSDeep: A deep learning model for Cervical Spondylosis Identification using surface electromyography signal

Cervical spondylosis (CS) is a common chronic disease that affects up to two-thirds of the population and poses a serious burden on individuals and society. The early identification has significant value in improving cure rate and reducing costs. However, the pathology is complex, and the mild symptoms increase the difficulty of the diagnosis, especially in the early stage. Besides, the time-consuming and costliness of hospital medical service reduces the attention to the CS identification. Thus, a convenient, low-cost intelligent CS identification method is imperious demanded. In this paper, we present an intelligent method based on the deep learning to identify CS, using the surface electromyography (sEMG) signal. Faced with the complex, high dimensionality and weak usability of the sEMG signal, we proposed and developed a multi-channel EasiCSDeep algorithm based on the convolutional neural network, which consists of the feature extraction, spatial relationship representation and classification algorithm. To the best of our knowledge, this EasiCSDeep is the first effort to employ the deep learning and the sEMG data to identify CS. Compared with previous state-of-the-art algorithm, our algorithm achieves a significant improvement.

Metacirculants and split weak metacirculants

Metacirculants are a rich resource of many families of interesting graphs, and weak metacirculants are generalizations of them. A graph is called a {\em split weak metacirculant} if it has a vertex-transitive split metacyclic automorphism group. In two recent papers, it is shown that a graph of prime power order is a metacirculant if and only if it is a split weak metacirculant. Let $m$ is a positive integer. In this paper, we first give a sufficient condition for the existence of split weak metacirculants of order $m$ which are not metacirculants. This is then used to give a sufficient and necessary condition for the existence of split weak metacirculants of order $n$ which are not metacirculants, where $n$ is a product of two prime-powers. As byproducts, we construct infinitely many split weak metacirculant graphs which are not metacirculant graphs, and answer an open question reported in the literature.

Absolutely split metacyclic groups and weak metacirculants

Let $m,n,r$ be positive integers, and let $G=\langle a\rangle: \langle b\rangle \cong \mathbb{Z}_n: \mathbb{Z}_m$ be a split metacyclic group such that $b^{-1}ab=a^r$. We say that $G$ is {\em absolutely split with respect to $\langle a\rangle$} provided that for any $x\in G$, if $\langle x\rangle\cap\langle a\rangle=1$, then there exists $y\in G$ such that $x\in\langle y\rangle$ and $G=\langle a\rangle: \langle y\rangle$. In this paper, we give a sufficient and necessary condition for the group $G$ being absolutely split. This generalizes a result of Sanming Zhou and the second author in [arXiv: 1611.06264v1]. We also use this result to investigate the relationship between metacirculants and weak metacirculants. Metacirculants were introduced by Alspach and Parsons in $1982$ and have been a rich source of various topics since then. As a generalization of this classes of graphs, Maru\v si\v c and \v Sparl in 2008 posed the so called weak metacirculants. A graph is called a {\em weak metacirculant} if it has a vertex-transitive metacyclic automorphism group. In this paper, it is proved that a weak metacirculant of $2$-power order is a metacirculant if and only if it has a vertex-transitive split metacyclic automorphism group. This provides a partial answer to an open question in the literature.

A Geometric View of Optimal Transportation and Generative Model

In this work, we show the intrinsic relations between optimal transportation and convex geometry, especially the variational approach to solve Alexandrov problem: constructing a convex polytope with prescribed face normals and volumes. This leads to a geometric interpretation to generative models, and leads to a novel framework for generative models. By using the optimal transportation view of GAN model, we show that the discriminator computes the Kantorovich potential, the generator calculates the transportation map. For a large class of transportation costs, the Kantorovich potential can give the optimal transportation map by a close-form formula. Therefore, it is sufficient to solely optimize the discriminator. This shows the adversarial competition can be avoided, and the computational architecture can be simplified. Preliminary experimental results show the geometric method outperforms WGAN for approximating probability measures with multiple clusters in low dimensional space.
