Automatic sigmoid colon segmentation in CT for radiotherapy treatment planning is challenging due to complex organ shape, close distances to other organs, and large variations in size, shape, and filling status. The patient bowel is often not evacuat...
The distribution of neurons in the cortex (cytoarchitecture) differs between cortical areas and constitutes the basis for structural maps of the human brain. Deep learning approaches provide a promising alternative to overcome throughput limitations ...
BACKGROUND: Despite excellent prediction performance, noninterpretability has undermined the value of applying deep-learning algorithms in clinical practice. To overcome this limitation, attention mechanism has been introduced to clinical research as...
Nonnegative sparse representation has become a popular methodology in medical analysis and diagnosis in recent years. In order to resolve network degradation, higher dimensionality in feature extraction, data redundancy, and other issues faced when m...

Much scientific enquiry across disciplines is founded upon a mechanistic treatment of dynamic systems that ties form to function. A highly visible instance of this is in molecular biology, where characterizing macromolecular structure and dynamics is...
Humans possess an exceptional aptitude to efficiently make decisions from high-dimensional sensory observations. However, it is unknown how the brain compactly represents the current state of the environment to guide this process. The deep Q-network ...
As non-human primates, macaques have a close phylogenetic relationship to human beings and have been proven to be a valuable and widely used animal model in human neuroscience research. Accurate skull stripping (aka. brain extraction) of brain magnet...
Activity recognition can provide useful information about an older individual's activity level and encourage older people to become more active to live longer in good health. This study aimed to develop an activity recognition algorithm for smartphon...
