Detailed Description
The invention is described in further detail below with reference to the figures and the specific embodiments. The step numbers in the following embodiments are provided only for convenience of illustration, the order between the steps is not limited at all, and the execution order of each step in the embodiments can be adapted according to the understanding of those skilled in the art.
Referring to fig. 1, the present invention provides a blood flow spectrum signal classification method, which includes the following steps:
s1, acquiring an arterial blood vessel ultrasonic image and extracting an arterial blood flow frequency spectrum change curve;
s2, establishing an ARX transfer function of a blood velocity spectrum according to the arterial blood flow spectrum change curve;
s3, performing fitting analysis on the ARX transfer function of the blood flow velocity spectrum to obtain the transfer function characteristics;
and S4, processing the transfer function characteristics by adopting an SVM classifier to finish the classification of the blood flow spectrum signals.
Further, as a preferred embodiment of the method, the step of acquiring an arterial blood vessel ultrasound image and extracting an arterial blood flow frequency spectrum change curve specifically includes:
s11, acquiring a carotid artery blood vessel ultrasonic image and a brachial artery blood vessel ultrasonic image;
specifically, ultrasound images of the brachial artery blood vessel of the sum of the front, middle and back necks of external counterpulsation (EECP) are acquired, and blood flow spectrum raw data in a DICOM format is derived.
S12, carrying out interference factor elimination processing, binarization processing, void filling processing and Sobel operator edge detection processing on the carotid artery blood vessel ultrasonic image to obtain a first Sobel gradient image;
s13, extracting the first Sobel gradient image to obtain a carotid blood flow frequency spectrum change curve;
s14, performing region-of-interest selection, binarization processing, cavity filling processing and Sobel operator edge detection processing on the brachial artery blood vessel ultrasonic image to obtain a second Sobel gradient image;
and S15, identifying the 0-axis position in the second Sobel gradient image, and locking the K value to search the upper envelope and the lower envelope to obtain the brachial artery blood flow frequency spectrum change curve.
Specifically, the blood flow velocity change pattern of the brachial artery and the common carotid artery are different, and the peripheral brachial artery blood vessel is mainly dominated by three-way blood flow.
Further, as a preferred embodiment of the method, the step of performing interference factor elimination processing, binarization processing, void filling processing and Sobel operator edge detection processing on the carotid artery blood vessel ultrasound image to obtain a first Sobel gradient image specifically includes:
the common carotid artery blood flow signal is relatively stable, and reverse blood flow does not exist in a normal state. The blood flow velocity frequency spectrum curve is distributed above the 0 axis, and the repeatability is good without processing such as filtering and the like.
S121, setting the pixel value of the interference factor in the carotid artery blood vessel ultrasonic image as background black to obtain a carotid artery blood flow frequency spectrum image with the interference factor removed;
specifically, for the reason of equipment, yellow star marks and cycle selection lines carried by the equipment are arranged on the acquired ultrasound image blood flow spectrum curve, and yellow lightning marks exist on a few images; these interference factors will become discontinuities on the envelope curve, causing large interference to the maximum velocity spectral curve extraction, thus affecting the data quality. According to the scheme, the yellow pixel point is set to be background black according to the pixel values (254,254 and 0) of the yellow pixel point, so that the threshold value of subsequent binarization processing is not influenced, and the interference of the yellow star mark and the selected line is eliminated.
S122, converting the carotid artery blood flow spectrum image after the interference factors are removed into a binary image;
specifically, in order to solve the problems that green outer envelope lines on yellow star marks in the image are discontinuous and key feature points are lacked, the common carotid artery blood flow spectrum image after interference factors are eliminated is converted into a binary image, and only black and white pixel points exist in the image. Therefore, the missing key feature points can be replaced by the white pixel points below, so that the time for finding points by manual difference is saved, and errors are obviously reduced.
S123, carrying out hole filling processing on the binary image by adopting closed operation to obtain a filled image;
specifically, after the closed operation setting, the blood flow frequency spectrum image edge is coherent and full, and preparation is made for extracting the outer edge in the next step. Through the closed operation, a large batch of images can be effectively extracted to the outer edge.
And S124, respectively calculating gradients of the filled images in the horizontal direction and the vertical direction by adopting a Sobel operator and synthesizing to obtain a first Sobel gradient image.
Specifically, the Sobel operator calculates the difference between the pixel points and the surrounding pixel points according to the gradient of each pixel point of the image, finally separates the target and the background, extracts the outer edge region, and includes two groups of 3 × 3 matrixes which are respectively horizontal and vertical, and performs plane convolution on the matrixes and the image to respectively obtain the brightness difference approximate values in the two directions.

The horizontal and vertical gray values of each pixel of the image are combined by formula (2) to calculate the size of the dot gray:

if the gradient G is larger than a certain threshold value, the point (x, y) is considered as an edge point; the gradient direction can then be calculated using equation (3):
Figure BDA0003210068090000051
the Sobel operator is a relatively common effective edge detection method, detects an edge when the edge reaches an extreme value according to gray scale weighting difference of upper and lower and left and right adjacent points of a pixel point, calculates the difference between the pixel point and surrounding pixel points according to the gradient of each pixel point of an image, finally separates a target and a background, extracts the outer edge and obtains an accurate brachial artery blood flow maximum velocity curve.
Further, as a preferred embodiment of the method, the step of identifying the 0-axis position in the second Sobel gradient image, and locking the K value to search the upper envelope and the lower envelope to obtain the brachial artery blood flow spectrum variation curve specifically includes:
the blood flow velocity spectrum of the brachial artery is mostly three-way blood flow in the acquisition process, namely, the blood flow spectrum curve passes through the 0 axis, and the blood flow of the brachial artery is unstable before, during and after EECP therapy, and the scale is changeable. Since the brachial artery blood flow curve passes through the 0 axis, the maximum blood flow velocity curve should be composed of an upper envelope above the 0 axis and a lower envelope below the 0 axis. The maximum blood flow velocity curve extracted from the brachial artery should also include a line coincident with the 0 axis in the period, and therefore, the identification of the 0 axis position in the blood flow curve of the brachial artery is particularly important. However, the blood flow curve scale is variable, the distribution position of the blood flow spectrum curve in the image is not fixed, and the determination of the 0 axis becomes a key problem for extracting the blood flow curve of the brachial artery blood vessel.
S151, searching pixel points with pixel values of 1 in the region of interest in the second Sobel gradient image in a global mode to obtain a position set of white pixel values;
specifically, for brachial artery external envelope extraction algorithm, the study mainly sets a movable selection box. The selection box may drag a location to select a region of interest (ROI). However, the extraction algorithm needs to identify the 0-axis position first because of the difference of the blood flow direction. Since the pixel point of the 0 axis in the image is not a single straight line, but a wide area with a certain width on the ordinate. Therefore, when the position of the axis 0 is found, the range of the vertical coordinate of the axis 0 needs to be obtained, and the axis 0 is obtained through large-batch image observation and comprises the heights of four pixel points. In the algorithm for identifying the 0 axis, pixel points with pixel values of 1 are searched globally in the ROI, namely all white pixel values are searched in a binary image of a Sobel edge, the position of the white pixel value set is judged, and four highest vertical coordinate values in the set are obtained. The resulting four ordinates are the relative position of the 0 axis within the ROI.
S152, determining the position of the axis 0 in the region of interest according to the four highest longitudinal coordinate values in the position set;
s153, setting K to be 1, and extracting an upper envelope from top to bottom until a pixel point in the 0-axis range is identified;
s154, setting K to be-1, and extracting a lower envelope from bottom to top until a pixel point in a 0-axis range is identified;
and S155, returning to the step S153 until all pixel points in the region of interest are identified, and obtaining a brachial artery blood flow frequency spectrum change curve.
Specifically, after the 0-axis position is determined, the upper envelope and the lower envelope need to be respectively extracted in the Sobel gradient graph and the stitching needs to be completed. In order to accurately extract the upper and lower outer envelopes, the specific implementation of the envelope extraction algorithm is as follows. First, locking sets K to 1, extracts an upper envelope from top to bottom when K is 1, unlocks if a pixel point of 0-axis range is recognized when the envelope is extracted, and sets K to-1. When K is-1, the lower envelope is extracted from bottom to top, and when a pixel point of 0-axis range is identified, K is set to-K again. The identification, inversion, extraction and seamless splicing of the upper envelope and the lower envelope are finished. The method realizes the self-adaptive identification and extraction algorithm of different blood flow directions and obtains an accurate brachial artery blood flow maximum velocity curve.
As a preferred embodiment of the method, the ARX transfer function of the blood velocity spectrum is specifically a 12 th order ARX model, and the step of performing fitting analysis on the ARX transfer function of the blood velocity spectrum to obtain a transfer function characteristic includes:
and fitting and analyzing the ARX transfer function of the blood flow velocity spectrum based on a least square method, and extracting coefficient characteristics of the transfer function, horizontal and vertical coordinate characteristics of a zero point and pole horizontal and vertical coordinate characteristics.
According to data quality screening, 50 groups of coronary heart diseases (CAD) are established based on the blood flow spectrum curve, and 50 groups of system transfer function data are compared, namely blood flow velocity transfer functions from common carotid artery to brachial artery before, after EECP intervention; and finally, according to FPE precision judgment, the order is selected to be 12. Features such as coefficients of transfer functions and horizontal and vertical coordinates of poles-zero are extracted based on a 12 th-order ARX model, and the like, and the total number of the features is 73, and 219 features exist in three excitation states before, during and after EECP.
The ARX model can be expressed in a form of a linear regression equation, so that the parameters of the ARX model can be calculated by a least square method, and compared with other models, the ARX model is simple and convenient to calculate and wide in application; ARX is expressed as a difference equation:

wherein e can be represented as

The above equation is solved by using QR decomposition to obtain:
Figure BDA0003210068090000079
the above equation is called least squares estimation.

and reflecting the corresponding blood flow spectrum signal classification according to the classification result.
According to the obtained blood flow velocity spectrum curve of the carotid artery and the brachial artery, a transfer function from the carotid artery to the peripheral brachial artery is established. Fitting analysis is carried out by adopting an ARX model, and the fitting degree of blood flow frequency spectrum curves before, in the middle and after EECP is more than 80% at 12 orders. Transfer function features computed in the model are used for classification.
