Optimized multi-level elongated quinary patterns for the assessment of thyroid nodules in ultrasound images.

Computers in biology and medicine
Ultrasound imaging is one of the most common visualizing tools used by radiologists to identify the location of thyroid nodules. However, visual assessment of nodules is difficult and often affected by inter- and intra-observer variabilities. Thus, a...

A New Remote Health-Care System Based on Moving Robot Intended for the Elderly at Home.

Journal of healthcare engineering
Nowadays, due to the growing need for remote care and the constantly increasing popularity of mobile devices, a large amount of mobile applications for remote care support has been developed. Although mobile phones are very suitable for young people,...

Cell Segmentation Based on FOPSO Combined With Shape Information Improved Intuitionistic FCM.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Fuzzy c-means (FCM) clustering algorithms have been proved to be effective image segmentation techniques. However, FCM clustering algorithms are sensitive to noises and initialization. They cannot effectively segment cell images with inhomogeneous gr...

Psoriasis skin biopsy image segmentation using Deep Convolutional Neural Network.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Development of machine assisted tools for automatic analysis of psoriasis skin biopsy image plays an important role in clinical assistance. Development of automatic approach for accurate segmentation of psoriasis skin biopsy...

A novel biomedical image indexing and retrieval system via deep preference learning.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The traditional biomedical image retrieval methods as well as content-based image retrieval (CBIR) methods originally designed for non-biomedical images either only consider using pixel and low-level features to describe an...

A YinYang bipolar fuzzy cognitive TOPSIS method to bipolar disorder diagnosis.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Bipolar disorder is often mis-diagnosed as unipolar depression in the clinical diagnosis. The main reason is that, different from other diseases, bipolarity is the norm rather than exception in bipolar disorder diagnosis. Yi...

A fuzzy logic control in adjustable autonomy of a multi-agent system for an automated elderly movement monitoring application.

International journal of medical informatics
Autonomous agents are being widely used in many systems, such as ambient assisted-living systems, to perform tasks on behalf of humans. However, these systems usually operate in complex environments that entail uncertain, highly dynamic, or irregular...

Multicenter review of robotic versus laparoscopic ventral hernia repair: is there a role for robotics?

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: The utilization of robotic platforms for general surgery procedures such as hernia repair is growing rapidly in the United States. A limited amount of data are available evaluating operative outcomes in comparison to standard laparoscopic...

Protecting Your Patients' Interests in the Era of Big Data, Artificial Intelligence, and Predictive Analytics.

Journal of the American College of Radiology : JACR
The Hippocratic oath and the Belmont report articulate foundational principles for how physicians interact with patients and research subjects. The increasing use of big data and artificial intelligence techniques demands a re-examination of these pr...
