Ensemble deep model for continuous estimation of Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale III.

Biomedical engineering online
BACKGROUND: Unified Parkinson Disease Rating Scale-part III (UPDRS III) is part of the standard clinical examination performed to track the severity of Parkinson's disease (PD) motor complications. Wearable technologies could be used to reduce the ne...

Machine learning associated with respiratory oscillometry: a computer-aided diagnosis system for the detection of respiratory abnormalities in systemic sclerosis.

Biomedical engineering online
INTRODUCTION: The use of machine learning (ML) methods would improve the diagnosis of respiratory changes in systemic sclerosis (SSc). This paper evaluates the performance of several ML algorithms associated with the respiratory oscillometry analysis...

Machine-learning classification of texture features of portable chest X-ray accurately classifies COVID-19 lung infection.

Biomedical engineering online
BACKGROUND: The large volume and suboptimal image quality of portable chest X-rays (CXRs) as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic could post significant challenges for radiologists and frontline physicians. Deep-learning artificial intelligent (AI) meth...

Multi-slice representational learning of convolutional neural network for Alzheimer's disease classification using positron emission tomography.

Biomedical engineering online
BACKGROUND: Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a degenerative brain disorder that often occurs in people over 65 years old. As advanced AD is difficult to manage, accurate diagnosis of the disorder is critical. Previous studies have revealed effective deep ...

Differentiating novel coronavirus pneumonia from general pneumonia based on machine learning.

Biomedical engineering online
BACKGROUND: Chest CT screening as supplementary means is crucial in diagnosing novel coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19) with high sensitivity and popularity. Machine learning was adept in discovering intricate structures from CT images and achieved exp...

Rapid identification of COVID-19 severity in CT scans through classification of deep features.

Biomedical engineering online
BACKGROUND: Chest CT is used for the assessment of the severity of patients infected with novel coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19). We collected chest CT scans of 202 patients diagnosed with the COVID-19, and try to develop a rapid, accurate and automatic t...

Intra-subject approach for gait-event prediction by neural network interpretation of EMG signals.

Biomedical engineering online
BACKGROUND: Machine learning models were satisfactorily implemented for estimating gait events from surface electromyographic (sEMG) signals during walking. Most of them are based on inter-subject approaches for data preparation. Aim of the study is ...

Computer-aided therapeutic diagnosis for anorexia.

Biomedical engineering online
BACKGROUND: Anorexia nervosa is a clinical disorder syndrome of the wide spectrum without a fully recognized etiology. The necessary issue in the clinical diagnostic process is to detect the causes of this disease (e.g., my body image, food, family, ...

Optimal length of R-R interval segment window for Lorenz plot detection of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation by machine learning.

Biomedical engineering online
BACKGROUND: Heartbeat interval Lorenz plot (LP) imaging is a promising method for detecting atrial fibrillation (AF) in long-term monitoring, but the optimal segment window length for the LP images is unknown. We examined the performance of AF detect...

Automated computer-assisted detection system for cerebral aneurysms in time-of-flight magnetic resonance angiography using fully convolutional network.

Biomedical engineering online
BACKGROUND: As the rupture of cerebral aneurysm may lead to fatal results, early detection of unruptured aneurysms may save lives. At present, the contrast-unenhanced time-of-flight magnetic resonance angiography is one of the most commonly used meth...
