AAN-Face: Attention Augmented Networks for Face Recognition.

IEEE transactions on image processing : a publication of the IEEE Signal Processing Society
Convolutional neural networks are capable of extracting powerful representations for face recognition. However, they tend to suffer from poor generalization due to imbalanced data distributions where a small number of classes are over-represented (e....

Face mask detection using deep learning: An approach to reduce risk of Coronavirus spread.

Journal of biomedical informatics
Effective strategies to restrain COVID-19 pandemic need high attention to mitigate negatively impacted communal health and global economy, with the brim-full horizon yet to unfold. In the absence of effective antiviral and limited medical resources, ...

Simple Python Module for Conversions Between DICOM Images and Radiation Therapy Structures, Masks, and Prediction Arrays.

Practical radiation oncology
Deep learning is becoming increasingly popular and available to new users, particularly in the medical field. Deep learning image segmentation, outcome analysis, and generators rely on presentation of Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (D...

IoT and ML-driven framework for managing infectious disease risks in communal spaces: a post-COVID perspective.

Frontiers in public health
COVID-19 has not only changed the way people live but has also altered the way all organizations operate. The most effective precautionary measure against the spread of the virus that caused the COVID-19 pandemic SARS-CoV-2, is to use face coverings ...

Transfer learning for mobile real-time face mask detection and localization.

Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association : JAMIA
OBJECTIVE: Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, our daily habits have suddenly changed. Gatherings are forbidden and, even when it is possible to leave the home for health or work reasons, it is necessary to wear a face mask to reduce the possibility of con...

Why do people oppose mask wearing? A comprehensive analysis of U.S. tweets during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association : JAMIA
OBJECTIVE: Facial masks are an essential personal protective measure to fight the COVID-19 (coronavirus disease) pandemic. However, the mask adoption rate in the United States is still less than optimal. This study aims to understand the beliefs held...

Automatic PAP Mask Sizing with an Error Correcting Autoencoder.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
We present the use of an error correcting autoencoder stage to a convolutional neural network model as a means of improving image based automatic Positive Airway Pressure (PAP) mask sizing accuracy. A single convolutional layer neural network was pre...

[Effect of location and type of exhalation valve on carbon dioxide rebreathing during noninvasive positive pressure ventilation: a experimental study].

Zhonghua wei zhong bing ji jiu yi xue
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the influence of exhalation valve location as well as its type on carbon dioxide (CO2) rebreathing during noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV).
