Development and validation of a robotic system for ankle joint testing.

Medical engineering & physics
Ankle sprains are the most common sports injury. Gaining a better understanding of ankle mechanics will help improve current treatments, enabling a better quality of life for patients following surgery. In this paper, the development of a robotic sys...

Assessment of specific versus combined purpose knowledge based models in prostate radiotherapy.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
Knowledge-based planning (KBP) can be used to improve plan quality, planning speed, and reduce the inter-patient plan variability. KPB may also identify and reduce systematic variations in VMAT plans, something very important in multi-institutional c...

Bispectrum Features and Multilayer Perceptron Classifier to Enhance Seizure Prediction.

Scientific reports
The ability to accurately forecast seizures could significantly improve the quality of life of patients with drug-refractory epilepsy. Prediction capabilities rely on the adequate identification of seizure activity precursors from electroencephalogra...

Automatic liver tumor segmentation in CT with fully convolutional neural networks and object-based postprocessing.

Scientific reports
Automatic liver tumor segmentation would have a big impact on liver therapy planning procedures and follow-up assessment, thanks to standardization and incorporation of full volumetric information. In this work, we develop a fully automatic method fo...

The PInSoRo dataset: Supporting the data-driven study of child-child and child-robot social dynamics.

PloS one
The study of the fine-grained social dynamics between children is a methodological challenge, yet a good understanding of how social interaction between children unfolds is important not only to Developmental and Social Psychology, but recently has b...

High-Fidelity Monocular Face Reconstruction Based on an Unsupervised Model-Based Face Autoencoder.

IEEE transactions on pattern analysis and machine intelligence
In this work, we propose a novel model-based deep convolutional autoencoder that addresses the highly challenging problem of reconstructing a 3D human face from a single in-the-wild color image. To this end, we combine a convolutional encoder network...

Newborn self-inflating manual resuscitators: precision robotic testing of safety and reliability.

Archives of disease in childhood. Fetal and neonatal edition
AIM: A controlled bench test was undertaken to determine the performance variability among a range of neonatal self-inflating bags (SIB) compliant with current International Standards Organisation (ISO).

Automatic Needle Segmentation and Localization in MRI With 3-D Convolutional Neural Networks: Application to MRI-Targeted Prostate Biopsy.

IEEE transactions on medical imaging
Image guidance improves tissue sampling during biopsy by allowing the physician to visualize the tip and trajectory of the biopsy needle relative to the target in MRI, CT, ultrasound, or other relevant imagery. This paper reports a system for fast au...
