CycleGAN for interpretable online EMT compensation.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: Electromagnetic tracking (EMT) can partially replace X-ray guidance in minimally invasive procedures, reducing radiation in the OR. However, in this hybrid setting, EMT is disturbed by metallic distortion caused by the X-ray device. We plan ...

Flexible electromagnetic capturer with a rapid ejection feature inspired by a biological ballistic tongue.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Bionics is the inspiration resource of state-of-the-art science and technology. The chameleon can capture prey at great distances with the assistance of its highly stretchable and ballistic tongue. Inspired by this biological structure, here we demon...

Leveraging spatial uncertainty for online error compensation in EMT.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: Electromagnetic tracking (EMT) can potentially complement fluoroscopic navigation, reducing radiation exposure in a hybrid setting. Due to the susceptibility to external distortions, systematic error in EMT needs to be compensated algorithmi...

Real-time Concealed Object Detection from Passive Millimeter Wave Images Based on the YOLOv3 Algorithm.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The detection of objects concealed under people's clothing is a very challenging task, which has crucial applications for security. When testing the human body for metal contraband, the concealed targets are usually small in size and are required to ...

Preliminary study on alginate/NIPAM hydrogel-based soft microrobot for controlled drug delivery using electromagnetic actuation and near-infrared stimulus.

Biomedical microdevices
Currently, microrobots are receiving attention because of their small size and motility, which can be applied to minimal invasive therapy. Additionally, various microrobots using hydrogel with the characteristics of biocompatibility and biodegradabil...

Real-time microrobot posture recognition via biplane X-ray imaging system for external electromagnetic actuation.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: As a promising intravascular therapeutic approach for autonomous catheterization, especially for thrombosis treatment, a microrobot or robotic catheter driven by an external electromagnetic actuation system has been recently investigated. Ho...

Using a deep learning network to recognise low back pain in static standing.

Ergonomics
Low back pain (LBP) remains one of the most prevalent musculoskeletal disorders, while algorithms that able to recognise LBP patients from healthy population using balance performance data are rarely seen. In this study, human balance and body sway p...

Using echo state networks for classification: A case study in Parkinson's disease diagnosis.

Artificial intelligence in medicine
Despite having notable advantages over established machine learning methods for time series analysis, reservoir computing methods, such as echo state networks (ESNs), have yet to be widely used for practical data mining applications. In this paper, w...

A border-ownership model based on computational electromagnetism.

Neural networks : the official journal of the International Neural Network Society
The mathematical relation between a vector electric field and its corresponding scalar potential field is useful to formulate computational problems of lower/middle-order visual processing, specifically related to the assignment of borders to the sid...

Development of an improved sample preparation platform for acidic endogenous hormones in plant tissues using electromembrane extraction.

Journal of chromatography. A
Despite their importance in pivotal signaling pathways due to trace quantities and complex matrices, the analysis of plant hormones is a challenge. Here, to improve this issue, we present an electromembrane extraction technology combined with liquid ...
