Soft demodulation is a basic module of traditional communication receivers. It converts received symbols into soft bits, that is, log likelihood ratios (LLRs). However, in the nonideal additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel, it is difficult to accurately calculate the LLR. In this letter, we propose a demodulator, DemodNet, based on a fully convolutional neural network with variable input and output length. We use hard bit information to train the DemodNet, and we propose log probability ratio (LPR) based on the output layer of the trained DemodNet to realize soft demodulation. The simulation results show that under the AWGN channel, the performance of both hard demodulation and soft demodulation of DemodNet is very close to the traditional methods. In three non-ideal channel scenarios, i.e., the presence of frequency deviation, additive generalized Gaussian noise (AGGN) channel, and Rayleigh fading channel, the performance of channel decoding using the soft information LPR obtained by DemodNet is better than the performance of decoding using the exact LLR calculated under the ideal AWGN assumption.

The auditory attention decoding (AAD) approach was proposed to determine the identity of the attended talker in a multi-talker scenario by analyzing electroencephalography (EEG) data. Although the linear model-based method has been widely used in AAD , the linear assumption was considered oversimplified and the decoding accuracy remained lower for shorter decoding windows. Recently, nonlinear models based on deep neural networks (DNN) have been proposed to solve this problem. However, these models did not fully utilize both the spatial and temporal features of EEG, and the interpretability of DNN models was rarely investigated. In this paper, we proposed novel convolutional recurrent neural network (CRNN) based regression model and classification model, and compared them with both the linear model and the state-of-the-art DNN models. Results showed that, our proposed CRNN-based classification model outperformed others for shorter decoding windows (around 90% for 2 s and 5 s). Although worse than classification models, the decoding accuracy of the proposed CRNN-based regression model was about 5% greater than other regression models. The interpretability of DNN models was also investigated by visualizing layers weight.
Objective: A novel structure based on channel-wise attention mechanism is presented in this paper. Embedding with the proposed structure, an efficient classification model that accepts multi-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) as input is constructed. Metho ds: One-dimensional convolutional neural networks (CNN) have proven to be effective in pervasive classification tasks, enabling the automatic extraction of features while classifying targets. We implement the Residual connection and design a structure which can learn the weights from the information contained in different channels in the input feature map during the training process. An indicator named mean square deviation is introduced to monitor the performance of a particular model segment in the classification task on the two out of the five ECG classes. The data in the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database is used and a series of control experiments is conducted. Results: Utilizing both leads of the ECG signals as input to the neural network classifier can achieve better classification results than those from using single channel inputs in different application scenarios. Models embedded with the channel-wise attention structure always achieve better scores on sensitivity and precision than the plain Resnet models. The proposed model exceeds the performance of most of the state-of-the-art models in ventricular ectopic beats (VEB) classification, and achieves competitive scores for supraventricular ectopic beats (SVEB). Conclusion: Adopting more lead ECG signals as input can increase the dimensions of the input feature maps, helping to improve both the performance and generalization of the network model. Significance: Due to its end-to-end characteristics, and the extensible intrinsic for multi-lead heart diseases diagnosing, the proposed model can be used for the real-time ECG tracking of ECG waveforms for Holter or wearable devices.

This letter presents a novel high impedance fault (HIF) detection approach using a convolutional neural network (CNN). Compared to traditional artificial neural networks, a CNN offers translation invariance and it can accurately detect HIFs in spite of variance and noise in the input data. A transfer learning method is used to address the common challenge of a system with little training data. Extensive studies have demonstrated the accuracy and effectiveness of using a CNNbased approach for HIF detection.
The millimeter-wave (mm-wave) radio-over-fiber (RoF) systems have been widely studied as promising solutions to deliver high-speed wireless signals to end users, and neural networks have been studied to solve various linear and nonlinear impairments. However, high computation cost and large amounts of training data are required to effectively improve the system performance. In this paper, we propose and demonstrate highly computation efficient convolutional neural network (CNN) and binary convolutional neural network (BCNN) based decision schemes to solve these limitations. The proposed CNN and BCNN based decision schemes are demonstrated in a 5 Gbps 60 GHz RoF system for up to 20 km fiber distance. Compared with previously demonstrated neural networks, results show that the bit error rate (BER) performance and the computation intensive training process are improved. The number of training iterations needed is reduced by about 50 % and the amount of required training data is reduced by over 30 %. In addition, only one training is required for the entire measured received optical power range over 3.5 dB in the proposed CNN and BCNN schemes, to further reduce the computation cost of implementing neural networks decision schemes in mm-wave RoF systems.
Noise and low quality of ECG signals acquired from Holter or wearable devices deteriorate the accuracy and robustness of R-peak detection algorithms. This paper presents a generic and robust system for R-peak detection in Holter ECG signals. While ma ny proposed algorithms have successfully addressed the problem of ECG R-peak detection, there is still a notable gap in the performance of these detectors on such low-quality ECG records. Therefore, in this study, a novel implementation of the 1D Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is used integrated with a verification model to reduce the number of false alarms. This CNN architecture consists of an encoder block and a corresponding decoder block followed by a sample-wise classification layer to construct the 1D segmentation map of R- peaks from the input ECG signal. Once the proposed model has been trained, it can solely be used to detect R-peaks possibly in a single channel ECG data stream quickly and accurately, or alternatively, such a solution can be conveniently employed for real-time monitoring on a lightweight portable device. The model is tested on two open-access ECG databases: The China Physiological Signal Challenge (2020) database (CPSC-DB) with more than one million beats, and the commonly used MIT-BIH Arrhythmia Database (MIT-DB). Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed systematic approach achieves 99.30% F1-score, 99.69% recall, and 98.91% precision in CPSC-DB, which is the best R-peak detection performance ever achieved. Compared to all competing methods, the proposed approach can reduce the false-positives and false-negatives in Holter ECG signals by more than 54% and 82%, respectively. Results also demonstrate similar or better performance than most competing algorithms on MIT-DB with 99.83% F1-score, 99.85% recall, and 99.82% precision.
