It is widely accepted that the optimization of medical imaging system performance should be guided by task-based measures of image quality (IQ). Task-based measures of IQ quantify the ability of an observer to perform a specific task, such as detecti...
This work reports a multilead interval measurement algorithm for a high-resolution digital electrocardiograph. The software enables off-line ECG processing including detection as well as an accurate multilead interval detection algorithm using sup...
PURPOSE: Chest X-ray is one of the most common examinations for diagnosing heart and lung diseases. Due to the existing of a large number of clinical cases, many automated diagnosis algorithms based on chest X-ray images have been proposed. To our kn...

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE: Assessing prognosis for acetaminophen-induced acute liver failure (APAP-ALF) patients during the first week of hospitalization often presents significant challenges. Current models such as the King's College Criteria (KCC) and t...
An image classification algorithm based on adaptive feature weight updating is proposed to address the low classification accuracy of the current single-feature classification algorithms and simple multifeature fusion algorithms. The MapReduce parall...
The European Medicines Agency has defined Big Data by the "3 V's": Volume, Velocity and Variety. These large databases allow access to real life data on patient care. They are particularly suited for studies of adverse events and pharmacoepidemiology...

BACKGROUND: Learning distributional representation of clinical concepts (e.g., diseases, drugs, and labs) is an important research area of deep learning in the medical domain. However, many existing relevant methods do not consider temporal dependenc...
PURPOSE: Radiomics allows for powerful data-mining and feature extraction techniques to guide clinical decision making. Image segmentation is a necessary step in such pipelines and different techniques can significantly affect results. We demonstrate...
Single cell segmentation is a critical and challenging step in cell imaging analysis. Traditional processing methods require time and labor to manually fine-tune parameters and lack parameter transferability between different situations. Recently, de...
