Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of medical image analysis, and specifically discloses a pressure injury detection method based on fractional-order composite multi-scale sample entropy. Background Art

[0002] Pressure injuries, also known as pressure ulcers, occur due to prolonged localized pressure on tissue, leading to impaired blood circulation and, subsequently, ischemia, hypoxia, and malnutrition in the skin and subcutaneous tissue. They are common in patients who are bedridden or wheelchair-bound, and are more likely to occur over bony prominences such as the sacrum and heels. Early identification and staging of pressure injuries are crucial to preventing their progression, but existing detection methods still have many limitations.

[0003] Current clinical testing primarily relies on static image recognition techniques, such as erythema threshold segmentation based on the HSV color model, which can identify erythema areas and, combined with morphological processing, locate suspected pressure injuries. Alternatively, gray-level co-occurrence matrices (GLCMs) can be used to quantify the roughness and uniformity of skin texture to distinguish normal tissue from damaged areas. Furthermore, near-infrared spectroscopy or thermal imaging techniques are also used to determine local ischemia based on temperature differences. However, these methods are based on single-frame image analysis and can only capture transient static features, failing to reflect the dynamic evolution of pressure injuries. For example, the early erythema of stage I pressure injuries may exhibit periodic brightness changes with microcirculatory fluctuations, making static images prone to misinterpretation as temporary congestion. Traditional image entropy methods are sensitive to lighting conditions and exhibit significantly reduced specificity in patients with significant skin color variations. Although existing research has attempted to incorporate time-series analysis methods such as multiscale entropy, these methods employ fixed parameters and a coarse-grained mean value. This approach fails to effectively preserve high-frequency signal details (such as transient fluctuations in erythema and is insensitive to subtle dynamic changes), and also struggles to adaptively adjust parameters to accommodate individual skin characteristics. This limits the accuracy of pressure injury staging. Therefore, a method integrating dynamic signal analysis is urgently needed to address the shortcomings of static image technology and achieve accurate staging and real-time monitoring of pressure injuries.

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a pressure injury detection method based on fractional composite multiscale entropy (FrCMSE) to improve the accuracy and efficiency of pressure injury detection. Summary of the Invention

[0036] The present invention performs fractional-order differential processing on the amplified ROI image sequence, calculates its FrCMSE value, and extracts the FrCMSE eigenvector that reflects the dynamic characteristics of pressure injuries. Fractional-order differentials are an extension of traditional integer-order calculus, allowing the differential order to be any real number, and can better describe signals with nonlinear and nonstationary characteristics. In pressure injury video detection, fractional-order differentials perform nonlinear enhancement on the ROI (region of interest) image sequence, highlighting high-frequency details (such as skin texture and subtle changes in early pressure injuries) while nonlinearly retaining low-frequency information (such as grayscale gradients in smooth skin areas). This processing effectively captures the dynamic characteristics of pressure injuries while suppressing noise interference.

[0037] The present invention calculates the weight of each FrCMSE feature using a minimal redundancy (mRMR) algorithm, maximizing the correlation between the feature and the target category and improving recognition accuracy. To facilitate the calculation of the mutual information between the feature and the category label, the present invention bins (discretizes) the extracted FrCMSE feature vector sample set. Considering that FrCMSE features are continuous-valued variables, directly participating in the mutual information calculation will lead to unstable probability estimation, especially when the sample size is limited. Therefore, a discretization method based on interval partitioning is adopted to map the continuous feature values ​​into a finite number of discrete states, thereby facilitating the estimation of the probability distribution and subsequent statistical operations.

[0038] This paper uses the processed WFrCMSE feature vector sample set to train an SVM (support vector machine) classifier to construct a pressure injury staging model. SVM achieves classification by finding an optimal hyperplane, maximizing the margin between classes and thus improving the classifier's generalization ability. For pressure injury detection, the radial basis function (RBF) kernel is selected as the SVM kernel. The RBF kernel is effective for nonlinear classification problems and is particularly suitable for data classification in high-dimensional feature spaces. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
