PURPOSE: Nutritional epidemiological research is shifting its focus from individual nutrients to dietary patterns, which challenges traditional statistical methods. Here, we aim to apply various machine learning algorithms to identify and predict die...
The gut microbiota is profoundly influenced by dietary choices, with emerging evidence linking it to various health outcomes. Here, we investigate diet-microbiota associations using detailed temporal nutrition intake data captured through real-time f...
Urban food landscapes significantly influence dietary habits and health outcomes, with disparities in food access contributing to obesity, particularly in socioeconomically disadvantaged neighborhoods. This study presents a data-driven approach to as...
Feeding is an innate behavior critical for survival but is also influenced by many non-nutritional factors such as emotion, social context and environmental conditions. Recently, tuberal nucleus somatostatin (SST) neurons have been identified as a ke...
Ecologists often use a hidden Markov model to decode a latent process, such as a sequence of an animal's behaviours, from an observed biologging time series. Modern technological devices such as video recorders and drones now allow researchers to dir...
BACKGROUND: The COVID-19 pandemic has inflicted global devastation, infecting over 750 million and causing 6 million deaths. In an effort to control the spread of the virus, governments around the world implemented a variety of measures, including st...
Correct identification of blood-sucking bugs, such as triatomines, is important because they are vectors of Chagas' disease. Identifying these insects is often difficult for non-specialists. Deep learning is emerging as a solution for automated ident...
: The microbiome plays an important role in cancer, but the relationship between dietary habits and the microbiota in oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is not clear. The aim of this study is to explore the complex relationship between the mi...
The electrical penetration graph (EPG) is a well-known technique that provides insights into the feeding behavior of insects with piercing-sucking mouthparts, mostly hemipterans. Since its inception in the 1960s, EPG has become indispensable in study...
The digital marketing of unhealthy foods and non-alcoholic beverages has a detrimental impact on children's eating behaviours, leading to adverse diet-related health outcomes. To inform the development of evidence-based strategies to protect children...
