Hence, we have employed the maximum envelope of the carotid artery Doppler sonogrants derived from Fast Fourier Transformation-Welch method and Artificial Immune Recognition System (AIRS). The fuzzy appearance of the carotid artery Doppler signals makes physicians suspicious about the existence of diseases and sometimes causes false diagnosis. Our technique gets around this problem using AIRS to decide and assist the physician to make the final judgment in confidence. AIRS has reached 99.29% classification accuracy using 10-fold cross validation. Results show that the proposed method classified Doppler signals successfully. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd.
