OBJECTIVES: Current mortality prediction models used in the intensive care unit (ICU) have a limited role for specific diseases such as influenza, and we aimed to establish an explainable machine learning (ML) model for predicting mortality in critic...
Systematic exposure to social media causes social comparisons, especially among women who compare their image to others; they are particularly vulnerable to mood decrease, self-objectification, body concerns, and lower perception of themselves. This ...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Conventional anthropometric studies using Kinect depth sensors have concentrated on estimating the distances between two points such as height. This paper deals with a novel waist measurement method using SVM regression, fur...
We developed a hybrid deep learning model (HDLM) algorithm that quantitatively predicts macular ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer (mGCIPL) thickness from red-free retinal nerve fiber layer photographs (RNFLPs). A total of 789 pairs of RNFLPs and sp...
BACKGROUND: Breast cancer is a collection of multiple tissue pathologies, each with a distinct molecular signature that correlates with patient prognosis and response to therapy. Accurately differentiating between breast cancer sub-types is an import...

In this study, we describe the design, fabrication and computational testing of a new prosthetic device for aortic valve replacement. The device is an active stent composed of a silicone rubber during initial prototyping, with adaptation towards a hy...
BACKGROUND: Accurate prediction of operative transfusions is essential for resource allocation and identifying patients at risk of postoperative adverse events. This research examines the efficacy of using artificial neural networks (ANNs) to predict...

BACKGROUND: The detection of Alzheimer's Disease (AD) in its formative stages, especially in Mild Cognitive Impairments (MCI), has the potential of helping the clinicians in understanding the condition. The literature review shows that the classifica...
We aimed to assess the use of automatic machine learning (AutoML) algorithm based on magnetic resonance (MR) image data to assign prediction scores to patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). We also aimed to develop a 4-group classification sys...
