Improperly grown trees may cause huge hazards to the environment and to humans, through e.g., climate change, soil erosion, etc. A proximity environmental feature-based tree health assessment (PTA) scheme is proposed to prevent these hazards by provi...
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a complex and heterogeneous clinical syndrome. For the purpose of assisting HFpEF diagnosis, a non-invasive method using extreme learning machine and heart sound (HS) characteristics was provi...
Biomedical repositories such as the UK Biobank provide increasing access to prospectively collected cardiac imaging, however these data are unlabeled, which creates barriers to their use in supervised machine learning. We develop a weakly supervised ...
As the incidence of senile dementia continues to increase, researches on Alzheimer's disease (AD) have become more and more important. Several studies have reported that there is a close relationship between AD and aging. Some researchers even pointe...

BACKGROUND: Finding interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs) in the EEG is a part of diagnosing epilepsy. Automated software for annotating EEGs of patients with suspected epilepsy can therefore help with reaching a diagnosis. A large amount of data...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the immune-inflammatory, metabolic, and nitro-oxidative stress (IM&NO) biomarkers as predictors of disability in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. A total of 122 patients with MS were included; their disability w...
Visual pollution is a relatively new concern amidst the existing plethora of mainstream environmental pollution, recommending the necessity for research to conceptualize, formalize, quantify and assess it from different dimensions. The purpose of thi...
Changes of directions and cutting maneuvers, including 180-degree turns, are common locomotor actions in team sports, implying high mechanical load. While the mechanics and neurophysiology of turns have been extensively studied in laboratory conditio...
