This paper introduces an automated method for estimating sex from the lower and upper limbs based on diaphyseal CSG properties. The proposed method was developed and evaluated using 389 femurs, 412 tibias, and 404 humeri of adult individuals from a m...
Microplastics are defined as microscopic plastic particles in the range from few micrometers and up to 5 mm. These small particles are classified as primary microplastics when they are manufactured in this size range, whereas secondary microplastics ...
Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) emerges as a non-destructive and rapid analytical tool for assessing food quality, safety, and authenticity. This work aims to investigate the potential of combining the spectral and spatial features of HSI data with the a...
Association between electroencephalography (EEG) and individually personal information is being explored by the scientific community. Though person identification using EEG is an attraction among researchers, the complexity of sensing limits using su...
The characterization of the microbial population of many niches of the organism, as the gastrointestinal tract, is now possible thanks to the use of high-throughput DNA sequencing technique. Several studies in the companion animals field already inve...
The classification performance of the statistical methods binary logistic regression (BLR), multinomial and penalized multinomial logistic regression (MLR, pMLR), linear discriminant analysis (LDA), and the machine learning algorithms naïve Bayes cla...

Epilepsy is a chronic disease caused by sudden abnormal discharge of brain neurons, causing transient brain dysfunction. The seizures of epilepsy have the characteristics of being sudden and repetitive, which has seriously endangered patients' health...
In this study, an electronic nose (E-nose) consisting of seven metal oxide semiconductor sensors is developed to identify milk sources (dairy farms) and to estimate the content of milk fat and protein which are the indicators of milk quality. The dev...
Facial changes are common among nearly all acromegalic patients. As they develop slowly, patients often fail to notice such changes before they become obvious. Consequently, diagnosis and treatment are often delayed. So far, convenient and accurate ...
We present herein rPTMDetermine, an adaptive and fully automated methodology for validation of the identification of rarely occurring post-translational modifications (PTMs), using a semisupervised approach with a linear discriminant analysis (LDA) a...
