PURPOSE: A reliable model to simulate nuclear interactions is fundamental for Ion-therapy. We already showed how BLOB ("Boltzmann-Langevin One Body"), a model developed to simulate heavy ion interactions up to few hundreds of MeV/u, could simulate al...
The ability to identify and accurately predict abnormal behavior is important for health monitoring systems in smart environments. Specifically, for elderly persons wishing to maintain their independence and comfort in their living spaces, abnormal b...

PURPOSE: In selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT), an accurate total liver segmentation is required for activity prescription and absorbed dose calculation. Our goal was to investigate the feasibility of using automatic liver segmentation based...
BACKGROUND: The fruit fly Drosophila suzukii, or spotted wing drosophila (SWD), is a serious pest worldwide, attacking many soft-skinned fruits. An efficient monitoring system that identifies and counts SWD in crops and their surroundings is therefor...
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a fast-growing field and its applications to diabetes, a global pandemic, can reform the approach to diagnosis and management of this chronic condition. Principles of machine learning have been used to build algorithms...
Blood pressure (BP) is a vital sign that provides fundamental health information regarding patients. Continuous BP monitoring is important for patients with hypertension. Various studies have proposed cuff-less BP monitoring methods using pulse trans...
INTRODUCTION: Deep learning-based algorithms have demonstrated enormous performance in segmentation of medical images. We collected a dataset of multiparametric MRI and contour data acquired for use in radiosurgery, to evaluate the performance of dee...
