Viscosity Prediction in a Physiologically Controlled Ventricular Assist Device.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: We present a novel machine learning model to accurately predict the blood-analog viscosity during support of a pathological circulation with a rotary ventricular assist device (VAD). The aim is the continuous monitoring of the hematocrit (...

Permutation Entropy and Signal Energy Increase the Accuracy of Neuropathic Change Detection in Needle EMG.

Computational intelligence and neuroscience
Needle electromyography can be used to detect the number of changes and morphological changes in motor unit potentials of patients with axonal neuropathy. General mathematical methods of pattern recognition and signal analysis were applied to recogn...

Quantitative approaches to energy and glucose homeostasis: machine learning and modelling for precision understanding and prediction.

Journal of the Royal Society, Interface
Obesity is a major global public health problem. Understanding how energy homeostasis is regulated, and can become dysregulated, is crucial for developing new treatments for obesity. Detailed recording of individual behaviour and new imaging modaliti...

A Biologically Inspired Approach to Frequency Domain Feature Extraction for EEG Classification.

Computational and mathematical methods in medicine
Classification of electroencephalogram (EEG) signal is important in mental decoding for brain-computer interfaces (BCI). We introduced a feature extraction approach based on frequency domain analysis to improve the classification performance on diffe...

Robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery versus conventional laparoscopic surgery in randomized controlled trials: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

PloS one
IMPORTANCE: This review provides a comprehensive comparison of treatment outcomes between robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery (RLS) and conventional laparoscopic surgery (CLS) based on randomly-controlled trials (RCTs).

Human Decisions in Moral Dilemmas are Largely Described by Utilitarianism: Virtual Car Driving Study Provides Guidelines for Autonomous Driving Vehicles.

Science and engineering ethics
Ethical thought experiments such as the trolley dilemma have been investigated extensively in the past, showing that humans act in utilitarian ways, trying to cause as little overall damage as possible. These trolley dilemmas have gained renewed atte...

Coil Embolization of a Renal Aneurysm Using a Minimally Invasive Endovascular Robotic System.

Vascular and endovascular surgery
We present a case demonstrating the use of an endovascular robotic system in the treatment of a saccular renal artery aneurysm located at the renal hilum in a young patient.

Brain tumor segmentation in multi-spectral MRI using convolutional neural networks (CNN).

Microscopy research and technique
A tumor could be found in any area of the brain and could be of any size, shape, and contrast. There may exist multiple tumors of different types in a human brain at the same time. Accurate tumor area segmentation is considered primary step for treat...

Prediction of inherited genomic susceptibility to 20 common cancer types by a supervised machine-learning method.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
Prevention and early intervention are the most effective ways of avoiding or minimizing psychological, physical, and financial suffering from cancer. However, such proactive action requires the ability to predict the individual's susceptibility to ca...
