Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals are an essential tool for the detection of epilepsy. Because of the complex time series and frequency features of EEG signals, traditional feature extraction methods have difficulty meeting the requirements of recognition performance. The tunable Q-factor wavelet transform (TQWT), which is a constant-Q transform that is easily invertible and modestly oversampled, has been successfully used for feature extraction of EEG signals. Because the constant-Q is set in advance and cannot be optimized, further applications of the TQWT are restricted. To solve this problem, the revised tunable Q-factor wavelet transform (RTQWT) is proposed in this paper. RTQWT is based on the weighted normalized entropy and overcomes the problems of a nontunable Q-factor and the lack of an optimized tunable criterion. In contrast to the continuous wavelet transform and the raw tunable Q-factor wavelet transform, the wavelet transform corresponding to the revised Q-factor, i.e., RTQWT, is sufficiently better adapted to the nonstationary nature of EEG signals. Therefore, the precise and specific characteristic subspaces obtained can improve the classification accuracy of EEG signals. The classification of the extracted features was performed using the decision tree, linear discriminant, naive Bayes, SVM and KNN classifiers. The performance of the new approach was tested by evaluating the accuracies of five time-frequency distributions: FT, EMD, DWT, CWT and TQWT. The experiments showed that the RTQWT proposed in this paper can be used to extract detailed features more effectively and improve the classification accuracy of EEG signals.
This paper investigates the problem of adaptive event-triggered synchronization for uncertain FNNs subject to double deception attacks and time-varying delay. During network transmission, a practical deception attack phenomenon in FNNs should be considered; that is, we investigated the situation in which the attack occurs via both communication channels, from S-C and from C-A simultaneously, rather than considering only one, as in many papers; and the double attacks are described by high-level Markov processes rather than simple random variables. To further reduce network load, an advanced AETS with an adaptive threshold coefficient was first used in FNNs to deal with deception attacks. Moreover, given the engineering background, uncertain parameters and time-varying delay were also considered, and a feedback control scheme was adopted. Based on the above, a unique closed-loop synchronization error system was constructed. Sufficient conditions that guarantee the stability of the closed-loop system are ensured by the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional method. Finally, a numerical example is presented to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.
This study develops a tripartite evolutionary game dynamic model with a time delay effect to analyze the interactions among food enterprise, government regulatory, and food inspection agencies in managing food safety risks. This model enables government regulatory agencies to more accurately assess and predict food safety risks, thereby implementing more effective preventative measures, ensuring the maximization of policy effectiveness and reducing food safety incidents. The results emphasize the significance of recent company performance by showing that regulatory and inspection entities’ strategic decisions are significantly impacted by delay effects from food companies. This study also shows that negative self-feedback intensity drives food enterprises to develop safer products and encourages tighter government oversight. Recommendations include improving consumer reporting channels, changing government incentives and penalties, allocating resources efficiently, and advancing information technology to decrease the effects of time delays and improve food safety management. Governments can improve food safety regulation by using strategic insights from numerical simulations.
