Computer Recognition of Wave Location in Graphical Data by a Neural Network

Five experiments were performed using several neural network architectures to identify the location of a wave in the time ordered graphical results from a medical test. Baseline results from the first experiment found correct identification of the target wave in 85% of cases (n 20). Other experiments investigated the effect of different architectures and preprocessing the raw data on the results. The methods used seem most appropriate for time oriented graphical data which has a clear starting point such as electrophoresis Or spectrometry rather than continuous teSts such as ECGs and EEGs.
