Accumulation of beta-amyloid in the brain and cognitive decline are considered hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease. Knowing from previous studies that these two factors can manifest in the retina, the aim was to investigate whether a deep learning metho...
Biomedical research data reuse and sharing is essential for fostering research progress. To this aim, data producers need to master data management and reporting through standard and rich metadata, as encouraged by open data initiatives such as the F...
HIV molecular epidemiology estimates the transmission patterns from clustering genetically similar viruses. The process involves connecting genetically similar genotyped viral sequences in the network implying epidemiological transmissions. This tech...

Computer-aided skin cancer classification systems built with deep neural networks usually yield predictions based only on images of skin lesions. Despite presenting promising results, it is possible to achieve higher performance by taking into accoun...
Regular screening for the early detection of common chronic diseases might benefit from the use of deep-learning approaches, particularly in resource-poor or remote settings. Here we show that deep-learning models can be used to identify chronic kidn...
BACKGROUND: Social media are important for monitoring perceptions of public health issues and for educating target audiences about health; however, limited information about the demographics of social media users makes it challenging to identify conv...
Health data that are publicly available are valuable resources for digital health research. Several public datasets containing ophthalmological imaging have been frequently used in machine learning research; however, the total number of datasets cont...
The Sequence Read Archive (SRA) is a large public repository that stores raw next-generation sequencing data from thousands of diverse scientific investigations. Despite its promise, reuse and re-analysis of SRA data has been challenged by the heter...
The industry has adopted Clinical Data Interchange Standards Consortium standards for clinical trial data and the Food and Drug Administration electronic common technical document standard for documents for many years but still faces many challenges....
BACKGROUND: Microbial genetics has formed a foundation for understanding many aspects of biology. Systematic annotation that supports computational data mining should reveal further insights for microbes, microbiomes, and conserved functions beyond m...
