Detection of Atrial Fibrillation from RR Intervals and PQRST Morphology using a Neural Network Ensemble.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Early detection and discrimination of cardiac arrhythmia, atrial fibrillation (AF) in particular, is essential for timely intervention to improve patient outcomes. In this work, an algorithm was developed to classify ECG records as normal, AF, other ...

Atrial Fibrillation Detection in Short Single Lead ECG Recordings Using Wavelet Transform and Artificial Neural Networks.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common health issue, not only in developed countries but also in developing ones. AF can lead to strokes, heart failures, and even death if it is not diagnosed and treated on time, therefore automatic detection of AF is ...

A Unified Optic Nerve Head and Optic Cup Segmentation Using Unsupervised Neural Networks for Glaucoma Screening.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Segmentation of retinal anatomical features such as optic nerve head (ONH) and optic cup, the brightest area in the center of ONH which is devoid of neural elements, is a prerequisite for computer-aided diagnosis and follow-up of glaucoma. The ONH se...

Introducing a Novel Layer in Convolutional Neural Network for Automatic Identification of Diabetic Retinopathy.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Convolutional neural networks have been widely used for identifying diabetic retinopathy on color fundus images. For such application, we proposed a novel framework for the convolutional neural network architecture by embedding a preprocessing layer ...

DISCERN: Generative Framework for Vessel Segmentation using Convolutional Neural Network and Visual Codebook.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
This paper presents a novel two-stage vessel segmentation framework applied to retinal fundus images. In the first stage a convolutional neural network (CNN) is used to correlate an image patch with a corresponding groundtruth reduced using Totally R...

A Fully Convolutional Deep Neural Network for Lung Tumor Boundary Tracking in MRI.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Delineation of lung tumor from adjacent tissue from a series of magnetic resonance images (MRI) poses many difficulties due to the image similarities of the region of interest and surrounding area as well as the influence of respiration. However, acc...

Hematoma Segmentation Using Dilated Convolutional Neural Network.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a global health challenge. Accurate and fast automatic detection of hematoma in the brain is essential for TBI diagnosis and treatment. In this study, we developed a fully automated system to detect and segment hematom...

Automatic Delineation of the Clinical Target Volume in Rectal Cancer for Radiation Therapy using Three-dimensional Fully Convolutional Neural Networks.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Accurate, robust, and fast delineation of the clinical target volume (CTV) for the use in radiotherapy of rectal cancer (RC) is highly sought-after. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have proven themselves very effective in various segmentation ta...

Deep Learning and Multi-Sensor Fusion for Glioma Classification Using Multistream 2D Convolutional Networks.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
This paper addresses issues of brain tumor, glioma, grading from multi-sensor images. Different types of scanners (or sensors) like enhanced T1-MRI, T2-MRI and FLAIR, show different contrast and are sensitive to different brain tissues and fluid regi...

Extraction of Aortic Knuckle Contour in Chest Radiographs Using Deep Learning.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
In this paper, we aim to extract the aortic knuckle (AK) contour in chest radiographs, an anatomical structure rarely being addressed in the literature. Since the AK structure is small and thin, simply adopting the deep network methods that are succe...
