A robo-pigeon based on an innovative multi-mode telestimulation system.

Bio-medical materials and engineering
In this paper, we describe a new multi-mode telestimulation system for brain-microstimulation for the navigation of a robo-pigeon, a new type of bio-robot based on Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) techniques. The multi-mode telestimulation system overc...

An effective fuzzy kernel clustering analysis approach for gene expression data.

Bio-medical materials and engineering
Fuzzy clustering is an important tool for analyzing microarray data. A major problem in applying fuzzy clustering method to microarray gene expression data is the choice of parameters with cluster number and centers. This paper proposes a new approac...

Use of Robotic Pets in Providing Stimulation for Nursing Home Residents with Dementia.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Trial experiments utilized robotic pets to facilitate self-reliance in nursing home residents. A remote-control robot modeled clear and meaningful behaviors to elderly residents. Special attention was paid to its effects on mental and social domains....

Ontogenic retinal changes in three ecologically distinct elopomorph fishes (Elopomorpha:Teleostei) correlate with light environment and behavior.

Visual neuroscience
Unlike the mammalian retina, the teleost fish retina undergoes persistent neurogenesis from intrinsic stem cells. In marine teleosts, most cone photoreceptor genesis occurs early in the embryonic and larval stages, and rods are added primarily during...

Finding a Path for Segmentation Through Sequential Learning.

Information processing in medical imaging : proceedings of the ... conference
Sequential learning techniques, such as auto-context, that applies the output of an intermediate classifier as contextual features for its subsequent classifier has shown impressive performance for semantic segmentation. We show that these methods ca...

Computer-Aided Virtual Screening and Designing of Cell-Penetrating Peptides.

Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.)
Cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) have proven their potential as versatile drug delivery vehicles. Last decade has witnessed an unprecedented growth in CPP-based research, demonstrating the potential of CPPs as therapeutic candidates. In the past, man...

Multiprocessor Neural Network in Healthcare.

Studies in health technology and informatics
A possible way of creating a multiprocessor artificial neural network is by the use of microcontrollers. The RISC processors' high performance and the large number of I/O ports mean they are greatly suitable for creating such a system. During our res...

[Role of the tissue antioxidant status in response to chronic irradiation of mice during early ontogenesis].

Radiatsionnaia biologiia, radioecologiia
The response of the liver and blood erythrocyte lipids to the low intensity chronic γ-irradiation action of mice at the dose of 8 cGy during early ontogenesis immediately and 7 months after irradiation is studied. The maintainance of the changed stru...

The application of machine learning to the modelling of percutaneous absorption: an overview and guide.

SAR and QSAR in environmental research
Machine learning (ML) methods have been applied to the analysis of a range of biological systems. This paper reviews the application of these methods to the problem domain of skin permeability and addresses critically some of the key issues. Specific...
