[0024] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0025] To make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0026] This embodiment provides a deep learning-based method for monitoring brain entropy in Alzheimer's patients, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes:

[0027] Collect brain signal data from target Alzheimer's patients and perform noise reduction processing to obtain the denoised brain signal sequence;

[0028] Based on the denoised brain signal sequence, multi-level brain entropy values ​​are extracted to determine the brain entropy index sequence.

[0029] The local fluctuation features within the time window are obtained based on the brain entropy index sequence, and then input into a pre-trained convolutional neural network model for pattern recognition to identify potential abnormal patterns.

[0030] Extract dynamic change vectors related to disease progression from the abnormal patterns, input them into a pre-trained support vector machine classifier for classification, and obtain disease stage labels after classification.

[0031] The difference between adjacent stages is obtained based on the disease stage labels, and the difference is evaluated by a threshold comparison method to determine key nodes;

[0032] Contextual data of brain entropy features corresponding to the key nodes are obtained, and the contextual data is matched by a sequence alignment algorithm to output personalized progression warning signals, namely the brain entropy monitoring results of the target Alzheimer's patient.

[0033] Specifically, this embodiment addresses the challenge of accurately identifying key disease progression points and providing personalized early warnings from complex signals by performing multi-level processing and analysis of brain signal data from Alzheimer's patients. First, wavelet transform is used to denoise high-dimensional signals and extract clear signals. Then, multi-scale entropy calculation is used to obtain brain entropy index sequences, capturing the multi-level features of the signals. Next, a convolutional neural network is used to identify abnormal patterns in local fluctuation features within a time window and extract dynamic change vectors related to disease progression. Furthermore, a support vector machine classifier is used to classify the vector set, determine disease stage labels, and evaluate the differences between adjacent stages through threshold comparison to locate key nodes. Finally, sequence alignment is performed based on the context data of the key nodes to generate personalized early warning signals. This embodiment seamlessly integrates signal denoising, feature extraction, pattern recognition, and classification-based early warning, achieving fully automated analysis from raw signals to accurate early warnings. Ultimately, this improves the accuracy and personalization of disease progression monitoring, providing crucial support for clinical decision-making.

[0034] Further, the brain signal data of the target Alzheimer's disease patient is collected and denoising processing is performed to obtain a denoised brain signal sequence, comprising:

[0035] The original brain signal data of the target Alzheimer's disease patient is obtained from the head of the target Alzheimer's disease patient by a signal acquisition device and stored as an initial signal set;

[0036] The high-dimensional data in the initial signal set is decomposed by using a wavelet transform method to separate different frequency components and obtain a decomposed signal component;

[0037] If there is a frequency component with an energy value exceeding a preset threshold in the decomposed signal component, the frequency component is marked as a noise component, and the marked noise component is filtered out to reconstruct the remaining signal component to obtain a denoised brain signal sequence.

[0038] Specifically, the high-precision electroencephalogram device is used to collect the brain electrical signal data of the patient in the resting state for 10 minutes, the sampling frequency is 500 Hz, a high-dimensional signal sequence containing 300,000 sampling points is obtained, the data is stored in the form of a time sequence matrix, the matrix dimension is 300,000x1, the signal value range is between-50 microvolts and 50 microvolts, and contains noise interference. Then, the denoising processing link is entered, the wavelet transform method is used for denoising, the Daubechies wavelet basis (db4) is specifically selected as the decomposition tool, the signal is decomposed into 5 layers of wavelet coefficients, the high-frequency coefficients are processed by the soft threshold method, the threshold is set to 2 times the signal standard deviation, that is, assuming that the standard deviation is 5.2 microvolts, the threshold is 10.4 microvolts, the high-frequency coefficients higher than the threshold are retained, and the low-frequency coefficients below the threshold are set to 0 to filter out the noise. Then, the wavelet coefficients after processing are inversely transformed to reconstruct the denoised signal sequence, the signal value range is reduced to-40 microvolts to 40 microvolts, and the noise component is significantly reduced.

[0039] Further, based on the denoised brain signal sequence, multi-level brain entropy values are extracted to determine a brain entropy index sequence, comprising:

[0040] Based on the denoised brain signal sequence, multi-scale entropy calculation method is used to extract brain entropy value data at different levels;

[0041] The brain entropy value data is used to construct a multi-level brain entropy value distribution structure, and if there is an abnormal fluctuation in the brain entropy value distribution structure, the local signal reconstruction is performed on the abnormal part to obtain an adjusted brain entropy value distribution;

[0042] According to the adjusted brain entropy value distribution, an entropy value aggregation method is used to determine the final brain entropy index sequence.

[0043] Specifically, based on the denoised brain signal sequence, the multi-scale entropy calculation method is used to extract brain entropy value data at different levels. First, assuming that a denoised brain signal sequence is obtained, the length is 1000 sampling points, the sampling frequency is 100 Hz, and the signal value range is between -50 and 50 microvolts. Then, the multi-scale entropy calculation algorithm is implemented, specifically the sample entropy method is combined with multi-scale analysis, and the signal sequence is coarse-grained according to different scale factors (for example, scale 1 to 5). Taking scale factor 2 as an example, the average value of every 2 points of the original sequence is taken to form a new sequence with a length of 500, and the sample entropy value is calculated. The embedding dimension m is set to 2, and the tolerance r is 0.2 times the standard deviation of the signal. The sample entropy value is 1.25. Similarly, scales 1 to 5 are calculated respectively to obtain a series of entropy values such as 1.30, 1.25, 1.18, 1.10, and 1.05, reflecting the complexity changes of the signal at different scales. Then, these entropy values are arranged in order of scale to form a brain entropy index sequence [1.30, 1.25, 1.18, 1.10, 1.05], which is used for subsequent feature analysis.

[0044] Further, according to the brain entropy index sequence, the local fluctuation features in the time window are obtained, and the pre-trained convolutional neural network model is input for pattern recognition to determine the potential abnormal pattern, including:

[0045] The brain entropy index sequence is segmented to obtain local fluctuation data from each time window, and a fluctuation signal set is obtained.

[0046] The fluctuation signal set is subjected to noise interference elimination by a standardization method to obtain a processed fluctuation signal set.

[0047] Based on the processed fluctuation signal set, local fluctuation features are extracted to construct a feature vector group, and the distribution range of the feature vector is determined. If the distribution range of the feature vector exceeds the preset range threshold, the abnormal point is marked, and the marked feature vector group is obtained.

[0048] The marked feature vector group is classified by the convolutional neural network model to determine whether there is a potential abnormal pattern. If there is, the frequency and time distribution of the abnormal pattern are analyzed to determine the time correlation of the abnormal pattern. If the time correlation of the abnormal pattern meets the preset continuity condition, the brain entropy index sequence in the related time window is subjected to in-depth analysis to obtain the final abnormal pattern determination result.

[0049] Specifically, the present embodiment aims at the processing and analysis of brain entropy index sequence, and designs a systematic method to extract local fluctuation features within a time window, and judges potential abnormalities through convolutional neural network pattern recognition. First, assuming that a brain entropy index sequence data is obtained, the data sampling frequency is 1 Hz, the time length is 600 seconds, there are 600 data points, and the numerical range is between 0.5 and 2.5, reflecting the complexity change of brain activity. Automatically divide the data into multiple time windows, and set the length of each time window to 30 seconds, that is, 30 data points, and overlap between time windows by 15 seconds to capture continuity features. In each time window, calculate the local fluctuation features, such as standard deviation and frequency energy, and the specific algorithm is: calculate the standard deviation of 30 data points in each time window to obtain the fluctuation amplitude, such as a time window standard deviation of 0.3; At the same time, extract the main frequency component through fast Fourier transform (FFT), and assume that the main frequency energy is concentrated at 2Hz, and the energy value is 1.8, which is used to represent periodic fluctuations. These feature values are stored as a two-dimensional feature matrix, with each row representing a time window and each column representing a different feature (such as standard deviation and main frequency energy). Then, input the feature matrix into the convolutional neural network (CNN) model, the model structure includes two convolutional layers (filter size 3x3, step 1) and a fully connected layer, the activation function is ReLU, the training data set is 1000 labeled samples (500 normal, 500 abnormal), the loss function is cross entropy, the optimizer is Adam, and the learning rate is 0.001. After 50 rounds of training, the model accuracy reaches 85%. In the inference stage, each time window feature is predicted, and if the abnormal probability of a certain time window exceeds 0.7, it is marked as a potential abnormal pattern, for example, a time window prediction probability of 0.75, automatically records and generates an abnormal report, and at the same time, correlates historical data analysis to confirm whether it forms a trend with other abnormal time windows within the past 30 minutes. If the abnormal probability of three consecutive time windows exceeds 0.7, an advanced warning is triggered.

[0050] Further, a dynamic change vector related to disease progression is extracted from the abnormal pattern, input into a pre-trained support vector machine classifier for classification processing, and a classified disease stage label is obtained, including:

[0051] The abnormal pattern is preliminarily screened through pattern detection technology, and the abnormal pattern related to disease progression is obtained and further analyzed to obtain change trend information related to disease progression;

[0052] The vector extraction method is used to convert the dynamic change in the change trend information into a change vector, and the pattern analysis technology is used to perform secondary verification on the distribution and trend of the change vector to judge the matching degree of the change vector with the progression tracking;

[0053] If the matching degree meets a preset matching threshold, the change vector is continuously monitored by a progress tracking mechanism to obtain dynamic update data of disease progress.

[0054] According to the dynamic update data, a support vector machine classifier is used to finally classify the relevance of the change vector to the disease progress, determine the influence range of the abnormal pattern on the disease progress, and output a disease stage label.

[0055] Specifically, the embodiment extracts a dynamic change vector related to disease progress from the abnormal pattern, calculates the slope of heart rate change, obtains a rising stage slope of 1.5 times / minute from 75 to 120, and a falling stage slope of -1.33 times / minute, and constructs a multidimensional vector combining blood pressure data (assuming synchronous rise of 10 mmHg) to form a dynamic change vector (1.5, -1.33, 10) and put it into a dynamic change vector set.

[0056] The support vector machine algorithm is used for classification, the radial basis function kernel function is selected, the kernel parameter γ is set to 0.1, the regularization parameter C is set to 1.0, the data set is divided into 80% training set (800 samples) and 20% test set (200 samples) by cross-validation method to optimize model parameters and prevent overfitting. During the training process, the algorithm maps the data to a high-dimensional space by finding the optimal hyperplane, calculates the distance from each sample to the hyperplane, maximizes the interval between classes, for example, the disease stage label is divided into three categories: early, medium and late. The model will calculate the support vector based on the distribution of the feature vector to obtain the classification boundary and output the disease stage label of each patient.

[0057] Further, according to the disease stage label, the difference degree between adjacent stages is obtained, the difference degree is evaluated by threshold comparison method, and the key node is determined, including:

[0058] The disease stage data corresponding to the disease stage label is extracted, the stage sequence data set is constructed, and the stage division information is obtained.

[0059] According to the stage division information, the data feature difference between adjacent stages is identified, and the difference degree quantization value is obtained by using the standardization processing method.

[0060] The difference degree quantization value is judged by the threshold comparison method, the key node is determined, and the key node is analyzed by stage, the importance ranking of the key node is obtained by combining the context relationship of the key node and adjacent stages.

[0061] According to the importance ranking, the key node is screened, and the logical regression model is used to verify the positioning of the screened key node to determine the final key node set.

[0062] Specifically, the embodiment first assumes that there is a data set with five disease stage labels, stages 1 to 5, and each stage has corresponding feature values such as severity scores, 10, 15, 25, 40, and 50. For the difference degree calculation between adjacent stages, a simple numerical difference algorithm is used, that is, the score of the next stage is subtracted from the score of the previous stage, and the difference degree sequence is 5, 10, 15, and 10. By analyzing the difference degree sequence, it can be found that the difference degree from stage 2 to stage 3 is 10, and the difference degree from stage 3 to stage 4 is 15, showing a significant jump change. To evaluate the importance of the difference degree, a threshold is set, for example, the threshold is 12, and the threshold comparison method is used to compare the difference degree with the threshold one by one, and it is found that the difference degree from stage 3 to stage 4 is 15, which is greater than the threshold 12, indicating that this is a significant change point, which may be a key node. To further confirm the position of the key node, auxiliary business data such as patient treatment response rate is introduced, and it is assumed that the response rate from stage 3 to stage 4 decreases from 80% to 50%, with a decrease of 30%, and the decrease of other adjacent stages is less than 10%. By calculating the correlation between the response rate decrease and the difference degree, the Pearson correlation coefficient is calculated, and the correlation coefficient is 0.85, indicating that the difference degree is highly correlated with the response rate change, thereby confirming that stage 3 to stage 4 is a key node.

[0063] Further, the context data corresponding to the brain entropy feature of the key node is obtained, and the context data is matched by a sequence alignment algorithm to output an individualized progress warning signal, including:

[0064] The brain entropy feature data related to the position of the key node is separated by data extraction technology, and the context data associated with the brain entropy feature data is obtained. The context data is sorted by a hierarchical screening method to determine the context segment highly correlated with the brain entropy feature data;

[0065] The context segment is matched layer by layer by a sequence alignment algorithm, and the risk segment is marked according to the matching result;

[0066] The individualized signal features in the risk segment are extracted, and the signal features are deeply mined by feature analysis technology to obtain an individualized signal pattern;

[0067] The individualized signal pattern is dynamically compared in time sequence by a progress warning mechanism, and if the comparison result shows continuous abnormality, a warning identifier is generated;

[0068] According to the warning identifier, the position information and the brain entropy feature of the key node are integrated, and the warning identifier is converted into a progress warning signal by a preset mapping rule to determine the final output result.

[0069] Specifically, the embodiment first extracts the brain entropy features of the key node positions, selects a time window of 5 seconds and a sampling rate of 256 Hz, calculates the brain entropy values in each time window, obtains a series of numerical values such as 0.72, 0.68, 0.75, and forms a brain entropy sequence with a length of 1000 as the basic data. Then, for the context data acquisition of these key nodes, the sliding window method is used to extract the EEG signal data of 10 seconds before and after, calculate the spectral features of the context, for example, the average value of the power spectral density in the alpha frequency band (8-12 Hz) is 3.5 microvolts per square / Hz, and combine it with the brain entropy sequence to form a multi-dimensional feature vector. Subsequently, in the sequence comparison stage, the dynamic time warping algorithm (DTW) is used to match the context data and the brain entropy sequence in the historical database, calculate the Euclidean distance between the two sequences, set the threshold value to 0.1, and if the distance is less than 0.1, it is considered to be a successful match. The matching result shows that the distance between the current sequence and a certain historical abnormal mode sequence is 0.08, indicating a potential risk. Finally, based on the matching result, a personalized progress warning signal is generated, combined with a machine learning model such as support vector machine (SVM), the matching distance 0.08 and the context feature value are input, and the output warning probability is 85%. According to the probability value classification, if it is greater than 80%, it is marked as high risk, and the warning notification mechanism is automatically triggered.

[0070] To further optimize the technical scheme, the embodiment also provides an Alzheimer's disease patient brain entropy monitoring system based on deep learning, comprising:
