The aim of this study was to develop classification models for mastitis and lameness treatments in Holstein dairy cows as the target variables based on continuous data from herd management software with modern machine learning methods. Data was colle...
Tau pathology and brain atrophy are the closest correlate of cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Understanding heterogeneity and longitudinal progression of atrophy during the disease course will play a key role in understanding AD pathoge...
Medical device performance and safety databases can be analyzed for patterns and novel opportunities for improving patient safety and/or device design. The objective of this analysis was to use supervised machine learning to explore patterns in rep...
Translational research of many disease areas requires a longitudinal understanding of disease development and progression across all biologically relevant scales. Several corresponding studies are now available. However, to compile a comprehensive pi...

Previous studies have shown promising results of machine learning (ML) models for predicting health outcomes. We develop and test ML models for predicting Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) in hospitalized patients. This is a retrospective coho...
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is one the most unpredictable adverse reactions to xenobiotics in humans and the leading cause of postmarketing withdrawals of approved drugs. To date, these drugs have been collated by the FDA to form the DILIRank da...
PURPOSE: Accurately forecasting the occurrence of future covid-19-related cases across relaxed (Sweden) and stringent (USA and Canada) policy contexts has a renewed sense of urgency. Moreover, there is a need for a multidimensional county-level appro...
PURPOSE: While neural networks gain popularity in medical research, attempts to make the decisions of a model explainable are often only made towards the end of the development process once a high predictive accuracy has been achieved.

PURPOSE: A Bayesian confidence propagation neural network (BCPNN) is a signal detection method used by the World Health Organization Uppsala Monitoring Centre to analyze spontaneous reporting system databases. We modify the BCPNN to increase its sens...
