Grant support (GS) in the MEDLINE database refers to funding agencies and contract numbers. It is important for funding organizations to track their funding outcomes from the GS information. As such, how to accurately and automatically extract fundin...
Many adults do not reach the recommended physical activity (PA) guidelines, which can lead to serious health problems. A promising method to increase PA is the use of smartphone PA applications. However, despite the development and evaluation of mul...
Sepsis is a leading cause of death in hospitals. Early prediction and diagnosis of sepsis, which is critical in reducing mortality, is challenging as many of its signs and symptoms are similar to other less critical conditions. We develop an artifici...
