An assessment of the barriers to the consumers' uptake of genetically modified foods: a neural network analysis.

Journal of the science of food and agriculture
BACKGROUND: This paper studies which of the attitudinal, cognitive and socio-economic factors determine the willingness to purchase genetically modified (GM) food, enabling the forecasting of consumers' behaviour in Andalusia, southern Spain. This cl...

Extracting latent brain states--Towards true labels in cognitive neuroscience experiments.

NeuroImage
Neuroscientific data is typically analyzed based on the behavioral response of the participant. However, the errors made may or may not be in line with the neural processing. In particular in experiments with time pressure or studies where the thresh...

Diagnostic Prediction for Social Anxiety Disorder via Multivariate Pattern Analysis of the Regional Homogeneity.

BioMed research international
Although decades of efforts have been spent studying the pathogenesis of social anxiety disorder (SAD), there are still no objective biological markers that could be reliably used to identify individuals with SAD. Studies using multivariate pattern a...

Population pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic assessment of pharmacological effect of a selective estrogen receptor β agonist on total testosterone in healthy men.

Clinical pharmacology in drug development
BACKGROUND: LY500307 is a highly selective estrogen receptor β (ERβ) agonist, which loses its selectivity at high dose and leads to undesirable suppression of total testosterone (TT) concentration. The objective of the present analysis was to define ...

Comparative assessment of glucose prediction models for patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus applying sensors for glucose and physical activity monitoring.

Medical & biological engineering & computing
The present work presents the comparative assessment of four glucose prediction models for patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) using data from sensors monitoring blood glucose concentration. The four models are based on a feedforward neural...

Novel structural descriptors for automated colon cancer detection and grading.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
The histopathological examination of tissue specimens is necessary for the diagnosis and grading of colon cancer. However, the process is subjective and leads to significant inter/intra observer variation in diagnosis as it mainly relies on the visua...

Evaluation of machine learning algorithms for treatment outcome prediction in patients with epilepsy based on structural connectome data.

NeuroImage
The objective of this study is to evaluate machine learning algorithms aimed at predicting surgical treatment outcomes in groups of patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) using only the structural brain connectome. Specifically, the brain connect...

Understanding safety-critical interactions with a home medical device through Distributed Cognition.

Journal of biomedical informatics
As healthcare shifts from the hospital to the home, it is becoming increasingly important to understand how patients interact with home medical devices, to inform the safe and patient-friendly design of these devices. Distributed Cognition (DCog) has...

Recognition of activities of daily living in healthy subjects using two ad-hoc classifiers.

Biomedical engineering online
BACKGROUND: Activities of daily living (ADL) are important for quality of life. They are indicators of cognitive health status and their assessment is a measure of independence in everyday living. ADL are difficult to reliably assess using questionna...
