Considerations for developing a clinical capnogram monitoring system. 1997

Clinical monitoring and diagnostic systems may require the analysis of multiple physiologic signals to generate a diagnosis. The complexity of these systems is formidable for at least two reasons: clinical physiologic signals are noisy, and systems built around multiple signals may fail when any single signal is absent. In view of these limitations, we have been developing a clinical respiratory CO2 waveform (capnogram) diagnostic system. The purpose of this system is to develop a differential diagnosis from a single signal for subsequent evaluation within the context of multiple single-signals. This paper will review the development issues which we have been confronting, and discuss the tools and methods which have been successful.

D016571 Neural Networks, Computer A computer architecture, implementable in either hardware or software, modeled after biological neural networks. Like the biological system in which the processing capability is a result of the interconnection strengths between arrays of nonlinear processing nodes, computerized neural networks, often called perceptrons or multilayer connectionist models, consist of neuron-like units. A homogeneous group of units makes up a layer. These networks are good at pattern recognition. They are adaptive, performing tasks by example, and thus are better for decision-making than are linear learning machines or cluster analysis. They do not require explicit programming.
