BACKGROUND: Therapeutic efficacy and toxicity of thiopurine drugs (used as anticancer and immunosuppressant agents) are affected by thiopurine S-methyltransferase (TPMT) enzyme activity. genotype and/or phenotype is used to predict the risk for adve...
BACKGROUND: Imbalanced data classification is an inevitable problem in medical intelligent diagnosis. Most of real-world biomedical datasets are usually along with limited samples and high-dimensional feature. This seriously affects the classificatio...
BACKGROUND: Like other scientific fields, such as cosmology, high-energy physics, or even the life sciences, medicine and healthcare face the challenge of an extremely quick transformation into data-driven sciences. This challenge entails the dauntin...
Radiology images are an essential part of clinical decision making and population screening, e.g., for cancer. Automated systems could help clinicians cope with large amounts of images by answering questions about the image contents. An emerging area...
BACKGROUND: Antibiotic resistance and its rapid dissemination around the world threaten the efficacy of currently-used medical treatments and call for novel, innovative approaches to manage multi-drug resistant infections. Phage therapy, i.e., the us...
The internet of things is arriving at the laboratory, connecting instruments for remote control and monitoring. Along with Artificial Intelligence Software to analyse data and design experiments, it could fundamentally change the way research is done...
BACKGROUND: Despite a wide adoption of English in science, a significant amount of biomedical data are produced in other languages, such as French. Yet a majority of natural language processing or semantic tools as well as domain terminologies or ont...
In a mass casualty incident, the factors that determine the survival rate of injured patients are diverse, but one of the key factors is the time for triage. Additionally, the main factor that determines the time of triage is the number of medical pe...
Near-infrared (NIR) spectral sensors deliver the spectral response of the light absorbed by materials for quantification, qualification or identification. Spectral analysis technology based on the NIR sensor has been a useful tool for complex informa...
