Prediction of anemia using facial images and deep learning technology in the emergency department.

BACKGROUND: According to the WHO, anemia is a highly prevalent disease, especially for patients in the emergency department. The pathophysiological mechanism by which anemia can affect facial characteristics, such as membrane pallor, has been proven to detect anemia with the help of deep learning technology. The quick prediction method for the patient in the emergency department is important to sc...

Get a grip: inward dactyl motions improve efficiency of sideways-walking gait for an amphibious crab-like robot.

Crabs are adept at traversing natural terrains that are challenging for mobile robots. Curved dactyls are a characteristic feature that engage terrain in order to resist wave forces in surf zones. Inward gripping motions at the onset of the stance could increase stability. Here, we add inward gripping motions to the foot trajectories of walking gaits to determine the energetic costs and speed for ...

Optimal planar leg geometry in robots and crabs for idealized rocky terrain.

Natural terrain is uneven so it may be beneficial to grasp onto the depressions or 'valleys' between obstacles when walking over such a surface. To ex...

A novel deep learning approach for sickle cell anemia detection in human RBCs using an improved wrapper-based feature selection technique in microscopic blood smear images.
