Transition index maps for urban growth simulation: application of artificial neural networks, weight of evidence and fuzzy multi-criteria evaluation.

Environmental monitoring and assessment
Transition index maps (TIMs) are key products in urban growth simulation models. However, their operationalization is still conflicting. Our aim was to compare the prediction accuracy of three TIM-based spatially explicit land cover change (LCC) mode...

DCE-MRI prediction of survival time for patients with glioblastoma multiforme: using an adaptive neuro-fuzzy-based model and nested model selection technique.

NMR in biomedicine
This pilot study investigates the construction of an Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) for the prediction of the survival time of patients with glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). ANFIS is trained by the pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters estimat...

A fourth order PDE based fuzzy c- means approach for segmentation of microscopic biopsy images in presence of Poisson noise for cancer detection.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: For cancer detection from microscopic biopsy images, image segmentation step used for segmentation of cells and nuclei play an important role. Accuracy of segmentation approach dominate the final results. Also the microscopi...

A fuzzy logic-based tool to assess beef cattle ranching sustainability in complex environmental systems.

Journal of environmental management
One of the most relevant issues in discussion worldwide nowadays is the concept of sustainability. However, sustainability assessment is a difficult task due to the complexity of factors involved in the natural world added to the human interference. ...

A time series driven decomposed evolutionary optimization approach for reconstructing large-scale gene regulatory networks based on fuzzy cognitive maps.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: Reconstructing gene regulatory networks (GRNs) from expression data plays an important role in understanding the fundamental cellular processes and revealing the underlying relations among genes. Although many algorithms have been propose...

Spatial interpolation and radiological mapping of ambient gamma dose rate by using artificial neural networks and fuzzy logic methods.

Journal of environmental radioactivity
The aim of this study was to determine spatial risk dispersion of ambient gamma dose rate (AGDR) by using both artificial neural network (ANN) and fuzzy logic (FL) methods, compare the performances of methods, make dose estimations for intermediate s...

A novel method for designing and optimizing the layout of facilities in bathroom for the elderly in home-based rehabilitation.

Disability and rehabilitation. Assistive technology
PURPOSE: The home-based rehabilitation of elderly patients improves their autonomy, independence and reintegration into society. Hence, a suitable environment plays an important role in rehabilitation, as do different assistance technologies. The maj...

Fuzzy spectral clustering for automated delineation of chronic wound region using digital images.

Computers in biology and medicine
Chronic wound is an abnormal disease condition of localized injury to the skin and its underlying tissues having physiological impaired healing response. Assessment and management of such wound is a significant burden on the healthcare system. Curren...

Design and fuzzy logic control of an active wrist orthosis.

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers. Part H, Journal of engineering in medicine
People who perform excessive wrist movements throughout the day because of their professions have a higher risk of developing lateral and medial epicondylitis. If proper precautions are not taken against these diseases, serious consequences such as j...

Adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system for breath phase detection and breath cycle segmentation.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND: The monitoring of the respiratory rate is vital in several medical conditions, including sleep apnea because patients with sleep apnea exhibit an irregular respiratory rate compared with controls. Therefore, monitoring the respiratory rat...
