Predictive modeling based on machine learning for mapping risk areas of human sporotrichosis in southeastern Brazil.

Research in veterinary science
Sporotrichosis, a zoonotic mycosis with a growing public health impact, requires innovative methods to map risk areas. This study applied machine learning techniques, Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), and Decision Trees (DT) to integrate sociodemogra...

Differentiation of canine and feline neoplasms using multi-modal imaging and machine learning.

Scientific reports
Canine/feline (sub-)cutaneous tumors, which include lipomas, mastocytomas and soft tissue sarcomas, introduce diagnostic challenges due to inherent tissue heterogeneity, accompanied by diverse clinical pathogenesis. Current study integrates conventio...

A Veterinary DICOM-Based Deep Learning Denoising Algorithm Can Improve Subjective and Objective Brain MRI Image Quality.

Veterinary radiology & ultrasound : the official journal of the American College of Veterinary Radiology and the International Veterinary Radiology Association
In this analytical cross-sectional method comparison study, we evaluated brain MR images in 30 dogs and cats with and without using a DICOM-based deep-learning (DL) denoising algorithm developed specifically for veterinary patients. Quantitative comp...

Classifying Retinal Degeneration in Histological Sections Using Deep Learning.

Translational vision science & technology
PURPOSE: Artificial intelligence (AI) techniques are increasingly being used to classify retinal diseases. In this study we investigated the ability of a convolutional neural network (CNN) in categorizing histological images into different classes of...

Ethical Issues Raised by the Introduction of Artificial Companions to Older Adults with Cognitive Impairment: A Call for Interdisciplinary Collaborations.

Journal of Alzheimer's disease : JAD
Due to the high costs of providing long-term care to older adults with cognitive impairment, artificial companions are increasingly considered as a cost-efficient way to provide support. Artificial companions can comfort, entertain, and inform, and e...

Classification of radiographic lung pattern based on texture analysis and machine learning.

Journal of veterinary science
This study evaluated the feasibility of using texture analysis and machine learning to distinguish radiographic lung patterns. A total of 1200 regions of interest (ROIs) including four specific lung patterns (normal, alveolar, bronchial, and unstruct...

ANTIFUNGAL ACTIVITY OF Cymbopogon nardus (L.) Rendle (CITRONELLA) AGAINST Microsporum canis FROM ANIMALS AND HOME ENVIRONMENT.

Revista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de Sao Paulo
Dermatophytosis is a common zoonosis in urban centers. Dogs and cats have played an important role as its disseminators. Environmental decontamination is essential for the prevention of its propagation to humans and animals. However, sanitizers or di...

Using a Robotic Cat in Dementia Care: A Pilot Study.

Journal of gerontological nursing
The current study aimed to explore (a) reactions of individuals with dementia to an interactive robotic cat and their relatives' and professional caregivers' experiences, and (b) to measure usability in developing the care/treatment of individuals wi...
