Scanpath modeling and classification with hidden Markov models.

Behavior research methods
How people look at visual information reveals fundamental information about them; their interests and their states of mind. Previous studies showed that scanpath, i.e., the sequence of eye movements made by an observer exploring a visual stimulus, ca...

SVM-dependent pairwise HMM: an application to protein pairwise alignments.

Bioinformatics (Oxford, England)
MOTIVATION: Methods able to provide reliable protein alignments are crucial for many bioinformatics applications. In the last years many different algorithms have been developed and various kinds of information, from sequence conservation to secondar...

A transfer learning approach to goodness of pronunciation based automatic mispronunciation detection.

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America
Goodness of pronunciation (GOP) is the most widely used method for automatic mispronunciation detection. In this paper, a transfer learning approach to GOP based mispronunciation detection when applying maximum F1-score criterion (MFC) training to de...

Application of supervised machine learning algorithms for the classification of regulatory RNA riboswitches.

Briefings in functional genomics
Riboswitches, the small structured RNA elements, were discovered about a decade ago. It has been the subject of intense interest to identify riboswitches, understand their mechanisms of action and use them in genetic engineering. The accumulation of ...

Segmentation of organs-at-risks in head and neck CT images using convolutional neural networks.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: Accurate segmentation of organs-at-risks (OARs) is the key step for efficient planning of radiation therapy for head and neck (HaN) cancer treatment. In the work, we proposed the first deep learning-based algorithm, for segmentation of OARs ...

Modeling Movement Primitives with Hidden Markov Models for Robotic and Biomedical Applications.

Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.)
Movement primitives are elementary motion units and can be combined sequentially or simultaneously to compose more complex movement sequences. A movement primitive timeseries consist of a sequence of motion phases. This progression through a set of m...

Towards sophisticated learning from EHRs: increasing prediction specificity and accuracy using clinically meaningful risk criteria.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Computer based analysis of Electronic Health Records (EHRs) has the potential to provide major novel insights of benefit both to specific individuals in the context of personalized medicine, as well as on the level of population-wide health care and ...

Reinforcement learning improves behaviour from evaluative feedback.

Nature
Reinforcement learning is a branch of machine learning concerned with using experience gained through interacting with the world and evaluative feedback to improve a system's ability to make behavioural decisions. It has been called the artificial in...

Patient-specific early classification of multivariate observations.

International journal of data mining and bioinformatics
Early classification of time series has been receiving a lot of attention recently. In this paper we present a model, which we call the Early Classification Model (ECM), that allows for early, accurate and patient-specific classification of multivari...
