We aimed to assess feasibility of a support vector machine (SVM) texture classifier to discriminate pathologic infiltration patterns from the normal bone marrows in MRI. This retrospective study included 467 cases, which were split into a training (n...
BACKGROUND: Hospital readmission prediction in pediatric hospitals has received little attention. Studies have focused on the readmission frequency analysis stratified by disease and demographic/geographic characteristics but there are no predictive ...
BACKGROUND: The postmortem microbiome can provide valuable information to a death investigation and to the human health of the once living. Microbiome sequencing produces, in general, large multi-dimensional datasets that can be difficult to analyze ...
An extreme learning machine (ELM) is a novel training method for single-hidden layer feedforward neural networks (SLFNs) in which the hidden nodes are randomly assigned and fixed without iterative tuning. ELMs have earned widespread global interest d...

Iron deficiency (ID) is one of the most common nutritional problems in the developing world, affecting primarily women of childbearing age. Poor dietary iron intake is a major reason of ID. Accurate measurement of iron intake is of crucial importance...
Although delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) is a well-known complication after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), there are no reliable biomarkers to predict DCI development. Matricellular proteins (MCPs) have been reported relevant to DCI and expected to b...

OBJECTIVE: Local reactions are the most common vaccine-related adverse event. There is no specific diagnosis code for local reaction due to vaccination. Previous vaccine safety studies used non-specific diagnosis codes to identify potential local rea...
OBJECTIVES: This study was conducted in order to evaluate a novel risk stratification model using dual-energy CT (DECT) texture analysis of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) with machine learning to (1) predict associated cervical lymphad...

PURPOSE: Osteoporosis is an underdiagnosed condition despite effective screening modalities. Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) screening, although recommended in clinical guidelines, remains markedly underutilized. In contrast to DEXA, CT utili...
Cervical tumor segmentation on 3D FDG PET images is a challenging task because of the proximity between cervix and bladder, both of which can uptake FDG tracers. This problem makes traditional segmentation based on intensity variation methods ineffec...
