Zusammenfassung: | Compare various methods for measuring time series similarity in order to classify referenced therapeutic breathing patterns (BP) used in respiratory disorder rehabilitation.
This experimental study involved the collection of respiratory signals during specified breathing exercises conducted with healthy volunteers. The study employed a screening phase using a k-NN classifier and eight distance measurement methods, including Minkowski Distance, Dynamic Time Warping-DTW (including FastDTW and constrained-cDTW variations), Longest Common Subsequence-LCSS, Edit Distance on Real Sequences-EDR, Time Warp Edit Distance-TWEED, and Minimum Jump Costs-MJC. Two distinct approaches were employed for classifying therapeutic BP based on time series similarity: (1) using the k-Shape algorithm for clustering, and 2) integrating methods to represent therapeutic BP and classify test curves using the most relevant measurement methods obtained from the first approach.
Among the two tested approaches, the combination of the cDTW algorithm and Minkowski distance (p = 2), using the 1-NN classifier, achieved the highest scores in this study, closely matching the metrics obtained from visual inspection conducted by human evaluators.
The use of combined classification methods in the analysis of flow curves referring to therapeutic breathing patterns improves the classification results, with metrics closely aligned with those obtained through visual evaluation conducted by individuals.
Time series analysis methods proved to be sensitive to classify respiratory flow curves equivalent to therapeutic breathing patterns used in respiratory disorder rehabilitation. This methodology can be used to monitor respiratory curves in new applications and implementation in devices for evaluating and treating the ventilatory pattern.
