Interpretability methods of machine learning algorithms with applications in breast cancer diagnosis.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Early detection of breast cancer is a powerful tool towards decreasing its socioeconomic burden. Although, artificial intelligence (AI) methods have shown remarkable results towards this goal, their "black box" nature hinders their wide adoption in c...

Predicting Severity in People with Aphasia: A Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning Approach.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Speech language pathologists need an accurate assessment of the severity of people with aphasia (PWA) to design and provide the best course of therapy. Currently, severity is evaluated manually by an increasingly scarce pool of experienced and well-t...

A comprehensive evaluation of state-of-the-art time-series deep learning models for activity-recognition in post-stroke rehabilitation assessment.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
The recent COVID-19 pandemic has further high-lighted the need for improving tele-rehabilitation systems. One of the common methods is to use wearable sensors for monitoring patients and intelligent algorithms for accurate and objective assessments. ...

Facial Landmark Tracking in Videos of Individuals with Neurological Impairments: Is There a Trade-off Between Smoothness and Accuracyƒ.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Orofacial kinematics are valuable markers of function and progression in a variety of neurological disorders. Recent advances in facial landmark detection have been used to improve landmark tracking in video, for example by accounting for interframe ...

Perioperative Risk Assessment in Pancreatic Surgery 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
Pancreatic surgery is associated with a high risk for postoperative complications and death of patients. Complications occur in a variable interval after the procedure. Often, a patient has already left the ICU and is not properly monitored anymore w...

A comparative study of AI systems for epileptic seizure recognition based on EEG or ECG.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
The majority of studies for automatic epileptic seizure (ictal) detection are based on electroencephalogram (EEG) data, but electrocardiogram (ECG) presents a simpler and more wearable alternative for long-term ambulatory monitoring. To assess the pe...

Leveraging Unsupervised Machine Learning to Discover Patterns in Linguistic Health Summaries for Eldercare.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
The Center for Eldercare and Rehabilitation Technology, at University of Missouri, has researched the use of smart, unobtrusive sensors for older adult residents' health monitoring and alerting in aging-in-place communities for many years. Sensors pl...

A Machine Learning Understanding of Sepsis.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Sepsis is a serious cause of morbidity and mortality and yet its pathophysiology remains elusive. Recently, medical and technological advances have helped redefine the criteria for sepsis incidence, which is otherwise poorly understood. With the reco...

Improving the compromise between accuracy, interpretability and personalization of rule-based machine learning in medical problems.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
One of the key challenges when developing a predictive model is the capability to describe the domain knowledge and the cause-effect relationships in a simple way. Decision rules are a useful and important methodology in this context, justifying thei...

A Partial Label-Based Machine Learning Approach For Cervical Whole-Slide Image Classification: The Winning TissueNet Solution.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer in women worldwide. To determine early treatment for patients, it is critical to accurately classify the cervical intraepithelial lesion status based on a microscopic biopsy. Lesion classification is a...
