Case Study Preview
The first case study involves the development of a system to detect spike waveforms
in an electroencephalogram (EEG). A team of physicians and engineers worked
together on many aspects of the problem, including the development of the fit ness
measures for the system. A key to success in this neur al network-based approach
was finding the appropriate data preprocessing strategy.
The second case study describes the development of a state-of-charge system
for an electric vehicle battery pack. (The state-of-charge measurement for an elec-
tric vehicle is like the gas gauge reading in a gasoline-pow ...
