Osteoarthritis (OA) classification in the knee is most commonly done with radiographs using the 0-4 Kellgren Lawrence (KL) grading system where 0 is normal, 1 shows doubtful signs of OA, 2 is mild OA, 3 is moderate OA, and 4 is severe OA. KL grading ...
Chest digital tomosynthesis (CDT) provides more limited image information required for diagnosis when compared to computed tomography. Moreover, the radiation dose received by patients is higher in CDT than in chest radiography. Thus, CDT has not bee...

Many real world applications are modelled by coupled systems on undirected networks. Two striking classes of such systems are the gradient and the Hamiltonian systems. In fact, within these two classes, coupled systems are admissible only by the undi...
In the course of infecting their hosts, pathogenic bacteria secrete numerous effectors, namely, bacterial proteins that pervert host cell biology. Many Gram-negative bacteria, including context-dependent human pathogens, use a type IV secretion syste...
MOTIVATION: One of the main challenges in machine learning (ML) is choosing an appropriate normalization method. Here, we examine the effect of various normalization methods on analyzing FPKM upper quartile (FPKM-UQ) RNA sequencing data sets. We coll...
MOTIVATION: The de novo prediction of RNA tertiary structure remains a grand challenge. Predicted RNA solvent accessibility provides an opportunity to address this challenge. To the best of our knowledge, there is only one method (RNAsnap) available ...
Lens-free holographic microscopy (LFHM) provides a cost-effective tool for large field-of-view imaging in various biomedical applications. However, due to the unit optical magnification, its spatial resolution is limited by the pixel size of the imag...
PURPOSE: The Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) lexicon was developed to standardize mammographic reporting to assess cancer risk and facilitate the decision to biopsy. Because of substantial interobserver variability in the applicati...
Accurate assessment of burn severity is critical for wound care and the course of treatment. Delays in classification translate to delays in burn management, increasing the risk of scarring and infection. To this end, numerous imaging techniques have...
