Comparison of variable selection methods for clinical predictive modeling.

International journal of medical informatics
OBJECTIVE: Modern machine learning-based modeling methods are increasingly applied to clinical problems. One such application is in variable selection methods for predictive modeling. However, there is limited research comparing the performance of cl...

Evaluation of an ontology-based system for computerized cognitive rehabilitation.

International journal of medical informatics
OBJECTIVES: This paper describes the results of a randomized clinical trial about the effectiveness of a computerized rehabilitation treatment on a sample of 31 patients affected by Parkinson disease.

Decision support system for triage management: A hybrid approach using rule-based reasoning and fuzzy logic.

International journal of medical informatics
OBJECTIVES: Fast and accurate patient triage for the response process is a critical first step in emergency situations. This process is often performed using a paper-based mode, which intensifies workload and difficulty, wastes time, and is at risk o...

Rest tremor quantification based on fuzzy inference systems and wearable sensors.

International journal of medical informatics
BACKGROUND: Currently the most consistent, widely accepted and detailed instrument to rate Parkinson's disease (PD) is the Movement Disorder Society sponsored Unified Parkinson Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS). However, the motor examination is based...

A computer vision-based system for monitoring Vojta therapy.

International journal of medical informatics
A neurological illness is t he disorder in human nervous system that can result in various diseases including the motor disabilities. Neurological disorders may affect the motor neurons, which are associated with skeletal muscles and control the body...

Applying natural language processing techniques to develop a task-specific EMR interface for timely stroke thrombolysis: A feasibility study.

International journal of medical informatics
OBJECTIVE: To reduce errors in determining eligibility for intravenous thrombolytic therapy (IVT) in stroke patients through use of an enhanced task-specific electronic medical record (EMR) interface powered by natural language processing (NLP) techn...

A fuzzy logic control in adjustable autonomy of a multi-agent system for an automated elderly movement monitoring application.

International journal of medical informatics
Autonomous agents are being widely used in many systems, such as ambient assisted-living systems, to perform tasks on behalf of humans. However, these systems usually operate in complex environments that entail uncertain, highly dynamic, or irregular...

Humanitarian health computing using artificial intelligence and social media: A narrative literature review.

International journal of medical informatics
INTRODUCTION: According to the World Health Organization (WHO), over 130 million people are in constant need of humanitarian assistance due to natural disasters, disease outbreaks, and conflicts, among other factors. These health crises can compromis...

Federated learning of predictive models from federated Electronic Health Records.

International journal of medical informatics
BACKGROUND: In an era of "big data," computationally efficient and privacy-aware solutions for large-scale machine learning problems become crucial, especially in the healthcare domain, where large amounts of data are stored in different locations an...

An ensemble boosting model for predicting transfer to the pediatric intensive care unit.

International journal of medical informatics
BACKGROUND: Early deterioration indicators have the potential to alert hospital care staff in advance of adverse events, such as patients requiring an increased level of care, or the need for rapid response teams to be called. Our work focuses on the...
