In this study we propose the use of text mining and machine learning methods to predict and detect Surgical Site Infections (SSIs) using textual descriptions of surgeries and post-operative patients' records, mined from the database of a high complex...
The majority of research on the judgment of emotion from facial expressions has focused on deliberately posed displays, often sampled from single stimulus sets. Herein, we investigate emotion recognition from posed and spontaneous expressions, compar...

INTRODUCTION: As we enter the era of "big data," an increasing amount of complex health-care data will become available. These data are often redundant, "noisy," and characterized by wide variability. In order to offer a precise and transversal view ...
Automatic identification of tissue structures in the analysis of digital tissue biopsies remains an ongoing problem in digital pathology. Common barriers include lack of reliable ground truth due to inter- and intra- reader variability, class imbalan...
