Medical & biological engineering & computing
Deep learning is a transformative force in the medical field and it has made significant progress as a pivotal alternative to conventional manual testing methods. Detection of Tubercle Bacilli in sputum samples is faced with the problems of complex b...

Gait pattern modification based on ground contact adaptation using the robot-assisted training platform (RATP).

Medical & biological engineering & computing
Robot-assisted rehabilitation and training systems are utilized to improve the functional recovery of individuals with mobility limitations. These systems offer structured rehabilitation through precise human-robot interaction, outperforming traditio...

Validity of machine learning algorithms for automatically extract growing rod length on radiographs in children with early-onset scoliosis.

Medical & biological engineering & computing
The magnetically controlled growing rod technique is an effective surgical treatment for children who have early-onset scoliosis. The length of the instrumented growing rods is adjusted regularly to compensate for the normal growth of these patients....

Leveraging feature selection for enhanced fall risk prediction in elderly using gait analysis.

Medical & biological engineering & computing
There is no effective fall risk screening tool for the elderly that can be integrated into clinical practice. Developing a system that can be easily used in primary care services is a current need. Current studies focus on the use of multiple sensors...

Deep learning approaches for the detection of scar presence from cine cardiac magnetic resonance adding derived parametric images.

Medical & biological engineering & computing
This work proposes a convolutional neural network (CNN) that utilizes different combinations of parametric images computed from cine cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) images, to classify each slice for possible myocardial scar tissue presence. The CNN...

The heart sound classification of congenital heart disease by using median EEMD-Hurst and threshold denoising method.

Medical & biological engineering & computing
Heart sound signals are vital for the machine-assisted detection of congenital heart disease. However, the performance of diagnostic results is limited by noise during heart sound acquisition. A limitation of existing noise reduction schemes is that ...

Multi-step framework for glaucoma diagnosis in retinal fundus images using deep learning.

Medical & biological engineering & computing
Glaucoma is one of the most common causes of blindness in the world. Screening glaucoma from retinal fundus images based on deep learning is a common method at present. In the diagnosis of glaucoma based on deep learning, the blood vessels within the...

Decoding lower-limb kinematic parameters during pedaling tasks using deep learning approaches and EEG.

Medical & biological engineering & computing
Stroke is a neurological condition that usually results in the loss of voluntary control of body movements, making it difficult for individuals to perform activities of daily living (ADLs). Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) integrated into robotic sys...
