Abstract

In epithelial physiology, it is common to use an equivalent electric circuit with two resistor-capacitor (RC) subcircuits in series as a model for the electrical behavior of body cells. The relation between these two subcircuits can be quantified by a quotient of their time constants t. While this quotient is a direct indicator of the shape of impedance spectra, its value cannot be determined directly. Here, we suggest a machine learning-based approach to predict the t quotient from impedance spectra. We perform systematic extraction of statistical features, algorithmic feature ranking and dimension reduction on model impedance spectra derived from tissue-equivalent electric circuits. Our results demonstrate that this quotient can be predicted reliably enough from implicit features to discriminate semicircular against non-semicircular impedance spectra.
