Application of machine learning and laser optical-acoustic spectroscopy to study the profile of exhaled air volatile markers of acute myocardial infarction

Abstract

Conventional acute myocardial infarction (AMI) diagnosis is quite accurate and has proved its effectiveness. However, despite this, discovering more operative methods of this disease detection is underway. From this point of view, the application of exhaled air analysis for a similar diagnosis is valuable. The aim of the paper is to research effective machine learning algorithms for the predictive model for AMI diagnosis constructing, using exhaled air spectral data. The target group included 30 patients with primary myocardial infarction. The control group included 42 healthy volunteers. The ‘LaserBreeze’ laser gas analyzer (Special Technologies Ltd, Russia), based on the dual-channel resonant photoacoustic detector cell and optical parametric oscillator as the laser source, had been used. The pattern recognition approach was applied in the same manner for the set of extracted concentrations of AMI volatile markers and the set of absorption coefficients in a most informative spectral range 2.900 ± 0.125 µm. The created predictive model based on the set of absorption coefficients provided 0.86 of the mean values of both the sensitivity and specificity when linear support vector machine (SVM) combined with principal component analysis was used. The created predictive model based on using six volatile AMI markers (C5H12, N2O, NO2, C2H4, CO, CO2) provided 0.82 and 0.93 of the mean values of the sensitivity and specificity, respectively, when linear SVM was used.

Discovering Glioma Tissue through Its Biomarkers’ Detection in Blood by Raman Spectroscopy and Machine Learning

“…PCA sorts PCs in a descending order, so the first PCs correspond to the largest amount of variance in data. It is not necessarily related to the groups’ separability [ 81 ]. In our case, the first several PCs do not affect group separability, so we do not describe them thoroughly.…”

Diagnostics of Oxidative Stress by Laser Optical-Acoustic Spectroscopy

“…Used spectral resolution is typical for OPOs. The benefit of OPO is that, due to wide spectral tunability, it allows one to provide a component analysis of complex gas mixtures with large amount of substances [25]. An example of decomposition of a model breath sample gas mixture containing CO2 and H2O at physiological concentrations; NO, NO2, C2H6, and C5H12 at ppm and sub-ppm concentration levels is presented in Tables 1, 2.…”

“…Using the extension of software built into the gas analyzer [25], the concentrations of the OS biomarkers were determined from the measured EAS absorption spectra. The restored concentration values of the corresponding substances are shown in Fig.…”
