Mammogram Enhancement Using Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: Conventional mammogram enhancement methods use transform-domain filtering, which possibly produce some artifacts or not well highlight all local details in images. This paper presents a new enhancement method based on intuitionistic fuzzy ...

Why so GLUMM? Detecting depression clusters through graphing lifestyle-environs using machine-learning methods (GLUMM).

European psychiatry : the journal of the Association of European Psychiatrists
BACKGROUND: Key lifestyle-environ risk factors are operative for depression, but it is unclear how risk factors cluster. Machine-learning (ML) algorithms exist that learn, extract, identify and map underlying patterns to identify groupings of depress...

Vitamin D status, hypertension and body mass index in an urban black community in Mangaung, South Africa.

African journal of primary health care & family medicine
BACKGROUND: A strong relationship exists between hypertension and body weight. Research has linked both higher blood pressure and body weight with lower vitamin D status.

Analyzing Brain Functions by Subject Classification of Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy Data Using Convolutional Neural Networks Analysis.

Computational intelligence and neuroscience
Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is suitable for noninvasive mapping of relative changes in regional cortical activity but is limited for quantitative comparisons among cortical sites, subjects, and populations. We have developed a convo...

Deep learning for automated skeletal bone age assessment in X-ray images.

Medical image analysis
Skeletal bone age assessment is a common clinical practice to investigate endocrinology, genetic and growth disorders in children. It is generally performed by radiological examination of the left hand by using either the Greulich and Pyle (G&P) meth...

Wheelchair Navigation System for Disabled and Elderly People.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
An intelligent wheelchair (IW) system is developed in order to support safe mobility for disabled or elderly people with various impairments. The proposed IW offers two main functions: obstacle detection and avoidance, and situation recognition. Firs...

Cardiac Biomarkers of Low Cardiac Output Syndrome in the Postoperative Period After Congenital Heart Disease Surgery in Children.

Revista espanola de cardiologia (English ed.)
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: To assess the predictive value of atrial natriuretic peptide, β-type natriuretic peptide, copeptin, mid-regional pro-adrenomedullin (MR-proADM) and cardiac troponin I (cTn-I) as indicators of low cardiac output syndrome i...

Diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas in children: Interest of robotic frameless assisted biopsy. A technical note.

Neuro-Chirurgie
INTRODUCTION: Diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas (DIPG) constitute 10-15% of all brain tumors in the pediatric population; currently prognosis remains poor, with an overall survival of 7-14 months. Recently the indication of DIPG biopsy has been enlar...

Visualization Method for Proprioceptive Drift on a 2D Plane Using Support Vector Machine.

Journal of visualized experiments : JoVE
Proprioceptive drift, which is a perceptual shift in body-part position from the unseen real body to a visible body-like image, has been measured as the behavioral correlate for the sense of ownership. Previously, the estimation of proprioceptive dri...
