Creepiness Creeps In: Uncanny Valley Feelings Are Acquired in Childhood.

Child development
The uncanny valley posits that very human-like robots are unsettling, a phenomenon amply demonstrated in adults but unexplored in children. Two hundred forty 3- to 18-year-olds viewed one of two robots (machine-like or very human-like) and rated thei...

Tracking Gaze and Visual Focus of Attention of People Involved in Social Interaction.

IEEE transactions on pattern analysis and machine intelligence
The visual focus of attention (VFOA) has been recognized as a prominent conversational cue. We are interested in estimating and tracking the VFOAs associated with multi-party social interactions. We note that in this type of situations the participan...

Emergent coordination underlying learning to reach to grasp with a brain-machine interface.

Journal of neurophysiology
The development of coordinated reach-to-grasp movement has been well studied in infants and children. However, the role of motor cortex during this development is unclear because it is difficult to study in humans. We took the approach of using a bra...

Efficacy and safety of lebrikizumab in adult patients with mild-to-moderate asthma not receiving inhaled corticosteroids.

Respiratory medicine
BACKGROUND: Asthma is a heterogeneous and complex disease in both its clinical course and response to treatment. IL-13 is central to Type 2 inflammation and contributes to many features of asthma. In a previous Phase 2 study, lebrikizumab, an anti-IL...

Melatonin administration lowers biomarkers of oxidative stress and cardio-metabolic risk in type 2 diabetic patients with coronary heart disease: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.

Clinical nutrition (Edinburgh, Scotland)
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Melatonin may benefit diabetic people with coronary heart disease (CHD) through its beneficial effects on biomarkers of oxidative stress and cardio-metabolic risk. This investigation evaluated the effects of melatonin administratio...

Estimating causal effects for survival (time-to-event) outcomes by combining classification tree analysis and propensity score weighting.

Journal of evaluation in clinical practice
RATIONALE, AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: A common approach to assessing treatment effects in nonrandomized studies with time-to-event outcomes is to estimate propensity scores and compute weights using logistic regression, test for covariate balance, and then...

Breast cancer data analysis for survivability studies and prediction.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND: Breast cancer is the most common cancer affecting females worldwide. Breast cancer survivability prediction is challenging and a complex research task. Existing approaches engage statistical methods or supervised machine learning to asses...

Machine learning techniques for breast cancer computer aided diagnosis using different image modalities: A systematic review.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The high incidence of breast cancer in women has increased significantly in the recent years. Physician experience of diagnosing and detecting breast cancer can be assisted by using some computerized features extraction and ...
