This paper proposes an efficient and fast method to create large datasets for machine learning algorithms applied to brain stroke classification via microwave imaging systems. The proposed method is based on the distorted Born approximation and linearization of the scattering operator, in order to minimize the time to generate the large datasets needed to train the machine learning algorithms. The method is then applied to a microwave imaging system, which consists of twenty-four antennas conformal to the upper part of the head, realized with a 3D anthropomorphic multi-tissue model. Each antenna acts as a transmitter and receiver, and the working frequency is 1 GHz. The data are elaborated with three machine learning algorithms: support vector machine, multilayer perceptron, and k-nearest neighbours, comparing their performance. All classifiers can identify the presence or absence of the stroke, the kind of stroke (haemorrhagic or ischemic), and its position within the brain. The trained algorithms were tested with datasets generated via full-wave simulations of the overall system, considering also slightly modified antennas and limiting the data acquisition to amplitude only. The obtained results are promising for a possible real-time brain stroke classification. |
