Smartphone-Based Balance Assessment Using Machine Learning.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
This study explores the potential of smartphones to objectively assess balance, which is crucial for the elderly and individuals recovering from various medical conditions. We propose an innovative methodology to estimate the Modified Clinical Test o...

Development of Mobile Application Based on AI for Predicting the Suitable Height of High Heels.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
As high heels become increasingly popular in everyday attire, their impact on foot and lower limb health has garnered widespread attention. Wearing high heels of inappropriate height over a long period can cause damage to an individual's ankles, knee...

Enhancing Wearable based Real-Time Glucose Monitoring via Phasic Image Representation Learning based 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 the U.S., over a third of adults are pre-diabetic, with 80% unaware of their status. This underlines the need for better glucose monitoring to prevent type 2 diabetes and related heart diseases. Existing wearable glucose monitors are limited by th...

Automated Intraoperative Visual Detection of Pediatric Epileptogenic Brain Lesions Using a Machine Learning Classifier.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
450,000 children with epilepsy in the United States suffer lifelong disability and are at risk of sudden death. Surgical treatment of epilepsy is limited by the ability to visually discriminate between normal and abnormal brain tissue using visual li...

Computer vision-inspired contrastive learning for self-supervised anomaly detection in sensor-based remote healthcare monitoring.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Sensor-based remote healthcare monitoring is a promising approach for timely detection of adverse health events such as falls or infections in people living with dementia (PLwD) in the home, and reducing preventable hospital admissions. Current anoma...

Pneumatic Relaxation Oscillator with Passive Components for Continuous Toes Movement.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Continuous passive motion of the toes improves blood circulation and may help ankle injuries heal faster. Soft devices are more appropriate than rigid devices to accommodate a variety of foot shapes. Most conventional pneumatic soft robots are actuat...

CBAM_SAUNet: A novel attention U-Net for effective segmentation of corner cases.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
U-Net has been demonstrated to be effective for the task of medical image segmentation. Additionally, integrating attention mechanism into U-Net has been shown to yield significant benefits. The Shape Attentive U-Net (SAUNet) is one such recently pro...

Robotically adjustable kinematics in a wrist-driven orthosis eases grasping across tasks.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Without finger function, people with C5-7 spinal cord injury (SCI) regularly utilize wrist extension to passively close the fingers and thumb together for grasping. Wearable assistive grasping devices often focus on this familiar wrist-driven techniq...

Evolutionary learning-derived lncRNA signature with biomarker discovery for predicting stage of colon adenocarcinoma.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
In recent years, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as potential regulators of biological processes and genes, with the potential to serve as valuable biomarkers for cancer diagnosis and prognosis prediction. This work proposes an evolutiona...

Enhancing sleep stage classification with 2-class stratification and permutation-based channel selection.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
We present a method that uses a convolutional neural network (CNN) called EEGNeX to extract and classify the characteristics of sleep-related waveforms from electroencephalographic (EEG) signals in different stages of sleep. Our results showed that t...
