Fuzzy logic for characterizing the moderate intensity of physical activity in children.

Journal of science and medicine in sport
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to better characterize the moderate intensity of PA among children by applying fuzzy logic as the most appropriate analytical approach. In this perspective, the 6-MWT was selected as a pertinent exercise modality...

Discrimination of schizophrenia auditory hallucinators by machine learning of resting-state functional MRI.

International journal of neural systems
Auditory hallucinations (AH) are a symptom that is most often associated with schizophrenia, but patients with other neuropsychiatric conditions, and even a small percentage of healthy individuals, may also experience AH. Elucidating the neural mecha...

Diabetes knowledge in young adults: associations with hemoglobin A1C.

Families, systems & health : the journal of collaborative family healthcare
The purpose of this study was to quantify associations between hemoglobin A1C (A1C) and diabetes knowledge score using an assessment tool developed to evaluate the level of diabetes knowledge in young adults with Type 1 diabetes (T1DM) and their pare...

Attentional Enhancement of Auditory Mismatch Responses: a DCM/MEG Study.

Cerebral cortex (New York, N.Y. : 1991)
Despite similar behavioral effects, attention and expectation influence evoked responses differently: Attention typically enhances event-related responses, whereas expectation reduces them. This dissociation has been reconciled under predictive codin...

Is modern external beam radiotherapy with androgen deprivation therapy still a viable alternative for prostate cancer in an era of robotic surgery and brachytherapy: a comparison of Australian series.

Journal of medical imaging and radiation oncology
INTRODUCTION: We compare the results of modern external-beam radiotherapy (EBRT), using combined androgen deprivation and dose-escalated intensity-modulated radiotherapy with MRI-CT fusion and daily image guidance with fiducial markers (DE-IG-IMRT), ...

Perioperative and long-term renal functional outcomes of robotic versus laparoscopic partial nephrectomy: a multicenter matched-pair comparison.

World journal of urology
PURPOSE: We compared perioperative and long-term renal functional outcomes of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) with laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN) for small renal masses.

Autonomous unobtrusive detection of mild cognitive impairment in older adults.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
The current diagnosis process of dementia is resulting in a high percentage of cases with delayed detection. To address this problem, in this paper, we explore the feasibility of autonomously detecting mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in the older adu...

A comparative study of surface EMG classification by fuzzy relevance vector machine and fuzzy support vector machine.

Physiological measurement
We present a multiclass fuzzy relevance vector machine (FRVM) learning mechanism and evaluate its performance to classify multiple hand motions using surface electromyographic (sEMG) signals. The relevance vector machine (RVM) is a sparse Bayesian ke...

Optogenetics Based Rat-Robot Control: Optical Stimulation Encodes "Stop" and "Escape" Commands.

Annals of biomedical engineering
Electric brain stimulation is frequently used in bio-robot control. However, one possible limitation of electric stimulation is the resultant wide range of influences that may lead to unexpected side-effects. Although there has been prior research do...
