Reliability and acceptability of using a social robot to carry out cognitive tests for community-dwelling older adults.

Geriatrics & gerontology international
AIM: To improve access to cognitive testing for older adults, the reliability and acceptability of a speech-based cognitive test administered by a social robot were investigated.

3D radiotherapy dose prediction on head and neck cancer patients with a hierarchically densely connected U-net deep learning architecture.

Physics in medicine and biology
The treatment planning process for patients with head and neck (H&N) cancer is regarded as one of the most complicated due to large target volume, multiple prescription dose levels, and many radiation-sensitive critical structures near the target. Tr...

Self-Anamnesis with a Conversational User Interface: Concept and Usability Study.

Methods of information in medicine
OBJECTIVE: Self-anamnesis is a procedure in which a patient answers questions about the personal medical history without interacting directly with a doctor or medical assistant. If collected digitally, the anamnesis data can be shared among the healt...

Analysis and evaluation of handwriting in patients with Parkinson's disease using kinematic, geometrical, and non-linear features.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Parkinson's disease is a neurological disorder that affects the motor system producing lack of coordination, resting tremor, and rigidity. Impairments in handwriting are among the main symptoms of the disease. Handwriting a...

Predicting hospital-acquired pneumonia among schizophrenic patients: a machine learning approach.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: Medications are frequently used for treating schizophrenia, however, anti-psychotic drug use is known to lead to cases of pneumonia. The purpose of our study is to build a model for predicting hospital-acquired pneumonia among schizophren...

HABITAT: An IoT Solution for Independent Elderly.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
In this work, a flexible and extensive digital platform for Smart Homes is presented, exploiting the most advanced technologies of the Internet of Things, such as Radio Frequency Identification, wearable electronics, Wireless Sensor Networks, and Art...

Neural Networks for Deep Radiotherapy Dose Analysis and Prediction of Liver SBRT Outcomes.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is a relatively novel treatment modality, with little post-treatment prognostic information reported. This study proposes a novel neural network based paradigm for accurate prediction of liver SBRT outcomes....

Prediction of survival outcomes in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer using machine learning methods.

Journal of gynecologic oncology
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to develop a new prognostic classification for epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) patients using gradient boosting (GB) and to compare the accuracy of the prognostic model with the conventional statistical method.
