Skin lesion segmentation using high-resolution convolutional neural network.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Skin lesion segmentation is an important but challenging task in computer-aided diagnosis of dermoscopy images. Many segmentation methods based on convolutional neural networks often fail to extract accurate lesion boundarie...

Deep learning to detect Alzheimer's disease from neuroimaging: A systematic literature review.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is one of the leading causes of death in developed countries. From a research point of view, impressive results have been reported using computer-aided algorithms, but clinically no practical diagnostic method is available. I...

Celiac disease diagnosis from videocapsule endoscopy images with residual learning and deep feature extraction.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Videocapsule endoscopy (VCE) is a relatively new technique for evaluating the presence of villous atrophy in celiac disease patients. The diagnostic analysis of video frames is currently time-consuming and tedious. Recently,...

A fuzzy clustering based color-coded diagram for effective illustration of blood perfusion parameters in contrast-enhanced ultrasound videos.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Early identification and diagnosis of tumors are of great significance to improve the survival rate of patients. Amongst other techniques, contrast-enhanced ultrasound is an important means to help doctors diagnose tumors. D...

Towards near real-time assessment of surgical skills: A comparison of feature extraction techniques.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Surgical skill assessment aims to objectively evaluate and provide constructive feedback for trainee surgeons. Conventional methods require direct observation with assessment from surgical experts which are both unscalable a...

An incremental learning system for atrial fibrillation detection based on transfer learning and active learning.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a type of arrhythmia with high incidence. Automatic AF detection methods have been studied in previous works. However, a model cannot be used all the time without any improvement. And updating mod...

Statistical modeling and knowledge-based segmentation of cerebral artery based on TOF-MRA and MR-T1.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: For cerebrovascular segmentation from time-of-flight (TOF) magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), the focused issues are segmentation accuracy, vascular network coverage ratio, and cerebral artery and vein (CA/CV) separation....

Brain pathology identification using computer aided diagnostic tool: A systematic review.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
Computer aided diagnostic (CAD) has become a significant tool in expanding patient quality-of-life by reducing human errors in diagnosis. CAD can expedite decision-making on complex clinical data automatically. Since brain diseases can be fatal, rapi...

Development of artificial neural network model for prediction of post-streptococcus mutans in dental caries.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Streptococcus mutans is the primary initiator and most common organism associated with dental caries. Prediction of post-Streptococcus mutans favours in the selection of appropriate caries excavation method which eventually ...

Self-attention based recurrent convolutional neural network for disease prediction using healthcare data.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Nowadays computer-aided disease diagnosis from medical data through deep learning methods has become a wide area of research. Existing works of analyzing clinical text data in the medical domain, which substantiate useful in...
