<p class="Abstract">Nowadays, objective protocols and criteria for the monitoring of phantoms failures are still lacking in literature, despite their technical limitations. In such a context, the present work aims at providing an improvement of a previously proposed method for the Doppler flow phantom failures detection. Such failures were classified as low frequency oscillations, high velocity pulses and velocity drifts. The novel objective method, named EMoDICA-STFT, is based on the combined application of the Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD), Independent Component Analysis (ICA) and Short Time Fourier Transform (STFT) techniques on Pulsed Wave (PW) Doppler spectrograms. After a first series of simulations and the determination of adaptive thresholds, phantom failures were detected on real PW spectrograms through the EMoDICA-STFT method. Data were acquired from two flow phantom models set at five flow regimes, through a single ultrasound (US) diagnostic system equipped with a linear, a convex and a phased array probe, as well as with two configuration settings. Despite the promising outcomes, further studies should be carried out on a greater number of Doppler phantoms and US systems as well as including an in-depth investigation of the proposed method uncertainty.</p>

This paper proposes a framework combining the complementary ensemble empirical mode decomposition with both the independent component analysis and the non-negative matrix factorization for estimating both the heart rate and the respiratory rate from the photoplethysmography (PPG) signal. After performing the complementary ensemble empirical mode decomposition on the PPG signal, a finite number of intrinsic mode functions are obtained. Then, these intrinsic mode functions are divided into two groups to perform the further analysis via both the independent component analysis and the non-negative matrix factorization. The surrogate cardiac signal related to the heart activity and another surrogate respiratory signal related to the respiratory activity are reconstructed to estimate the heart rate and the respiratory rate, respectively. Finally, different records of signals acquired from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care database downloaded from the Physionet Automated Teller Machine (ATM) data bank are employed for demonstrating the outperformance of our proposed method. The results show that our proposed method outperforms both the digital filtering approach and the conventional empirical mode decomposition based methods in terms of reconstructing both the surrogate cardiac signal and the respiratory signal from the PPG signal as well as both achieving the higher accuracy and the higher reliability for estimating both the heart rate and the respiratory rate.
