Mortality risk prediction in burn injury: Comparison of logistic regression with machine learning approaches.

Burns : journal of the International Society for Burn Injuries
INTRODUCTION: Predicting mortality from burn injury has traditionally employed logistic regression models. Alternative machine learning methods have been introduced in some areas of clinical prediction as the necessary software and computational faci...

The application of data mining techniques to oral cancer prognosis.

Journal of medical systems
This study adopted an integrated procedure that combines the clustering and classification features of data mining technology to determine the differences between the symptoms shown in past cases where patients died from or survived oral cancer. Two ...

Defining functional groups based on running kinematics using Self-Organizing Maps and Support Vector Machines.

Journal of biomechanics
A functional group is a collection of individuals who react in a similar way to a specific intervention/product such as a sport shoe. Matching footwear features to a functional group can possibly enhance footwear-related comfort, improve running perf...

The HAAPI (Home Arm Assistance Progression Initiative) Trial: A Novel Robotics Delivery Approach in Stroke Rehabilitation.

Neurorehabilitation and neural repair
BACKGROUND: Geographical location, socioeconomic status, and logistics surrounding transportation impede access of poststroke individuals to comprehensive rehabilitative services. Robotic therapy may enhance telerehabilitation by delivering consisten...

An electronic medical record system with treatment recommendations based on patient similarity.

Journal of medical systems
As the core of health information technology (HIT), electronic medical record (EMR) systems have been changing to meet health care demands. To construct a new-generation EMR system framework with the capability of self-learning and real-time feedback...

Applying under-sampling techniques and cost-sensitive learning methods on risk assessment of breast cancer.

Journal of medical systems
Breast cancer is one of the most common cause of cancer mortality. Early detection through mammography screening could significantly reduce mortality from breast cancer. However, most of screening methods may consume large amount of resources. We pro...

Analyses of a cirrhotic patient's evolution using self organizing mapping and Child-Pugh scoring.

Journal of medical systems
Due to the importance of cirrhosis evolution, this study examined cirrhotic patients using Self Organizing Mapping (SOM) based on the Child-Pugh scoring method. Because Colored Doppler Ultrasound (CDU) has too many parameters, scoring can be a very d...

Novel method to predict body weight in children based on age and morphological facial features.

Journal of clinical pharmacology
A new and novel approach of predicting the body weight of children based on age and morphological facial features using a three-layer feed-forward artificial neural network (ANN) model is reported. The model takes in four parameters, including age-ba...

Artificial neural network and falls in community-dwellers: a new approach to identify the risk of recurrent falling?

Journal of the American Medical Directors Association
BACKGROUND: Identification of the risk of recurrent falls is complex in older adults. The aim of this study was to examine the efficiency of 3 artificial neural networks (ANNs: multilayer perceptron [MLP], modified MLP, and neuroevolution of augmenti...
