BACKGROUND: Attentional processes in toddlers are characterized by a state of alertness in which they focus their waking state for short periods. It is essential to develop assessment and attention stimulation protocols from an early age to improve t...
In the evolving landscape of technology, robots have emerged as social companions, prompting an investigation into social bonding between humans and robots. While human-animal interactions are well-studied, human-robot interactions (HRI) remain compa...
Accurate computer-aided diagnosis systems rely on precise segmentation of the vertebral column to assist physicians in diagnosing various disorders. However, segmenting spinal disks and bones becomes challenging in the presence of abnormalities and c...
Prostate cancer (PCa) is a major, and increasingly global, health concern with current screening and diagnostic tools' severe limitations causing unnecessary, invasive biopsy procedures. While gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) has been use...
This study develops a novel automated method for measuring continuous dynamics of dog facial behavior based on video-based tracking of 46 facial landmarks grounded in the Dog Facial Action Coding System. This method is applied for comparing the facia...
Mammal-inspired quadruped robots excel in traversing diverse terrestrial terrains but often lack aquatic mobility, limiting their effectiveness in amphibious environments. To address this challenge, an amphibious robotic dog (ARD) was developed, inte...
BACKGROUND: Myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD) represents the most prevalent cardiac disorder in dogs, frequently resulting in mitral regurgitation (MR) and congestive heart failure. Although echocardiography is the gold standard for diagnosis, i...
OBJECTIVE: To develop and compare machine-learning algorithms to predict recovery of ambulation after decompressive surgery for acute intervertebral disc extrusion (IVDE).
Nasal stenosis in bulldogs significantly impacts their quality of life, making early diagnosis crucial for effective treatment. This study developed an automated deep learning model to classify the severity of nasal stenosis using 1020 images of bull...
Research with controlled or crossover designs in animal-assisted therapy have largely used control groups receiving no treatment or treatment as usual, which can potentially inflate the effects of these interventions. It is therefore not always clear...
