Social determining factors such as the adverse influence of globalization, supermarket growth, fast unplanned urbanization, sedentary lifestyle, economy, and social position slowly develop behavioral risk factors in humans. Behavioral risk factors su...
As the global urban population grows due to the influx of migrants from rural areas, many cities in developing countries face the emergence and proliferation of unplanned and informal settlements. However, even though the rise of unplanned developmen...
Single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) is quite prevalent in studying transcriptomes, but it suffers from excessive zeros, some of which are true, but others are false. False zeros, which can be seen as missing data, obstruct the downstream analysis of sing...
Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) can characterize cell types and states through unsupervised clustering, but the ever increasing number of cells and batch effect impose computational challenges. We present DESC, an unsupervised deep embedding a...
BACKGROUND: Structure delineation is a necessary, yet time-consuming manual procedure in radiotherapy. Recently, convolutional neural networks have been proposed to speed-up and automatise this procedure, obtaining promising results. With the advent ...
Deep convolutional neural network (DCNN), now popularly called artificial intelligence (AI), has shown the potential to improve over previous computer-assisted tools in medical imaging developed in the past decades. A DCNN has millions of free parame...
The clinical value of multiple b-value diffusion-weighted (DW) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been shown in many studies. However, DW-MRI often suffers from low signal-to-noise ratio, especially at high b-values. To address this limitation, we ...
This work proposes using artificial neural networks (ANNs) for the regression of the dosimetric quantities employed in mammography. The data were generated by Monte Carlo (MC) simulations using a modified and validated version of the PENELOPE (v. 201...
The microbiome is a new frontier for building predictors of human phenotypes. However, machine learning in the microbiome is fraught with issues of reproducibility, driven in large part by the wide range of analytic models and metagenomic data types ...
