Can Robot-Assisted Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty Be Cost-Effective? A Markov Decision Analysis.

The Journal of arthroplasty
BACKGROUND: Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is a treatment option for single-compartment knee osteoarthritis. Robotic assistance may improve survival rates of UKA, but the cost-effectiveness of robot-assisted UKA is unknown. The purpose of t...

Containment control of networked autonomous underwater vehicles: A predictor-based neural DSC design.

ISA transactions
This paper investigates the containment control problem of networked autonomous underwater vehicles in the presence of model uncertainty and unknown ocean disturbances. A predictor-based neural dynamic surface control design method is presented to de...

Hidden Markov model using Dirichlet process for de-identification.

Journal of biomedical informatics
For the 2014 i2b2/UTHealth de-identification challenge, we introduced a new non-parametric Bayesian hidden Markov model using a Dirichlet process (HMM-DP). The model intends to reduce task-specific feature engineering and to generalize well to new da...

Sparse Markov chain-based semi-supervised multi-instance multi-label method for protein function prediction.

Journal of bioinformatics and computational biology
Automated assignment of protein function has received considerable attention in recent years for genome-wide study. With the rapid accumulation of genome sequencing data produced by high-throughput experimental techniques, the process of manually pre...

Impulsive synchronization of Markovian jumping randomly coupled neural networks with partly unknown transition probabilities via multiple integral approach.

Neural networks : the official journal of the International Neural Network Society
This paper studies the impulsive synchronization of Markovian jumping randomly coupled neural networks with partly unknown transition probabilities via multiple integral approach. The array of neural networks are coupled in a random fashion which is ...

Unsupervised lineage-based characterization of primate precursors reveals high proliferative and morphological diversity in the OSVZ.

The Journal of comparative neurology
Generation of the primate cortex is characterized by the diversity of cortical precursors and the complexity of their lineage relationships. Recent studies have reported miscellaneous precursor types based on observer classification of cell biology f...

Using text mining techniques to extract phenotypic information from the PhenoCHF corpus.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: Phenotypic information locked away in unstructured narrative text presents significant barriers to information accessibility, both for clinical practitioners and for computerised applications used for clinical research purposes. Text mini...

Probabilistic hazard assessment for skin sensitization potency by dose-response modeling using feature elimination instead of quantitative structure-activity relationships.

Journal of applied toxicology : JAT
Supervised learning methods promise to improve integrated testing strategies (ITS), but must be adjusted to handle high dimensionality and dose-response data. ITS approaches are currently fueled by the increasing mechanistic understanding of adverse ...

A Markov random field approach to group-wise registration/mosaicing with application to ultrasound.

Medical image analysis
In this paper we present a group-wise non-rigid registration/mosaicing algorithm based on block-matching, which is developed within a probabilistic framework. The discrete form of its energy functional is linked to a Markov Random Field (MRF) contain...

Identifying synonymy between relational phrases using word embeddings.

Journal of biomedical informatics
Many text mining applications in the biomedical domain benefit from automatic clustering of relational phrases into synonymous groups, since it alleviates the problem of spurious mismatches caused by the diversity of natural language expressions. Mos...
