Data collected from clinical trials and cohort studies, such as dementia studies, are often high-dimensional, censored, heterogeneous and contain missing information, presenting challenges to traditional statistical analysis. There is an urgent need ...
Due to the rapid spread of COVID-19 and its induced death worldwide, it is imperative to develop a reliable tool for the early detection of this disease. Chest X-ray is currently accepted to be one of the reliable means for such a detection purpose. ...

In this paper, we explore the potential of using the multivoxel proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (H-MRS) to diagnose neuropsychiatric systemic lupus erythematosus (NPSLE) with the assistance of a support vector machine broad learning system (BL...
There is an increasing interest in the development of effective early detection and intervention strategies in severe mental illness (SMI). Ideally, these efforts should lead to the delineation of accurate staging models of SMI enabling personalized ...
Fifth Generation (5G) mobile communications technology became available in Japan as of the end of March 2020. The Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications (MIC) is proceeding with a plan to use 5G for a doctor-to-doctor remote diagnosis system...

Early diagnosis is critical for the prevention and control of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). We attempted to apply a protocol using teleultrasound, which is supported by the 5G network, to explore the feasibility of solving the problem of e...
INTRODUCTION: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a complex and heterogeneous disease that affects neuronal cells over time and it is prevalent among all neurodegenerative diseases. Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) techniques are widely used for developing h...
PURPOSE: Candidemia is a highly lethal infection; several scores have been developed to assist the diagnosis process and recently different models have been proposed. Aim of this work was to assess predictive performance of a Random Forest (RF) algor...
Acute critical illness is often preceded by deterioration of routinely measured clinical parameters, e.g., blood pressure and heart rate. Early clinical prediction is typically based on manually calculated screening metrics that simply weigh these pa...
