A Hybrid Swarm Algorithm for optimizing glaucoma diagnosis.

Computers in biology and medicine
Glaucoma is among the most common causes of permanent blindness in human. Because the initial symptoms are not evident, mass screening would assist early diagnosis in the vast population. Such mass screening requires an automated diagnosis technique....

Multimodal predictor of neurodevelopmental outcome in newborns with hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy.

Computers in biology and medicine
Automated multimodal prediction of outcome in newborns with hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy is investigated in this work. Routine clinical measures and 1h EEG and ECG recordings 24h after birth were obtained from 38 newborns with different grades of...

Using swing resistance and assistance to improve gait symmetry in individuals post-stroke.

Human movement science
A major characteristic of hemiplegic gait observed in individuals post-stroke is spatial and temporal asymmetry, which may increase energy expenditure and the risk of falls. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of swing resistance/ass...

Group sessions with Paro in a nursing home: Structure, observations and interviews.

Australasian journal on ageing
AIM: We recently reported that a companion robot reduced residents' loneliness in a randomised controlled trial at an aged-care facility. This report aims to provide additional, previously unpublished data about how the sessions were run, residents' ...

An assessment of the barriers to the consumers' uptake of genetically modified foods: a neural network analysis.

Journal of the science of food and agriculture
BACKGROUND: This paper studies which of the attitudinal, cognitive and socio-economic factors determine the willingness to purchase genetically modified (GM) food, enabling the forecasting of consumers' behaviour in Andalusia, southern Spain. This cl...

Extracting latent brain states--Towards true labels in cognitive neuroscience experiments.

NeuroImage
Neuroscientific data is typically analyzed based on the behavioral response of the participant. However, the errors made may or may not be in line with the neural processing. In particular in experiments with time pressure or studies where the thresh...

Diagnostic Prediction for Social Anxiety Disorder via Multivariate Pattern Analysis of the Regional Homogeneity.

BioMed research international
Although decades of efforts have been spent studying the pathogenesis of social anxiety disorder (SAD), there are still no objective biological markers that could be reliably used to identify individuals with SAD. Studies using multivariate pattern a...

Comparative assessment of glucose prediction models for patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus applying sensors for glucose and physical activity monitoring.

Medical & biological engineering & computing
The present work presents the comparative assessment of four glucose prediction models for patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) using data from sensors monitoring blood glucose concentration. The four models are based on a feedforward neural...

Novel structural descriptors for automated colon cancer detection and grading.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
The histopathological examination of tissue specimens is necessary for the diagnosis and grading of colon cancer. However, the process is subjective and leads to significant inter/intra observer variation in diagnosis as it mainly relies on the visua...

Evaluation of machine learning algorithms for treatment outcome prediction in patients with epilepsy based on structural connectome data.

NeuroImage
The objective of this study is to evaluate machine learning algorithms aimed at predicting surgical treatment outcomes in groups of patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) using only the structural brain connectome. Specifically, the brain connect...
