Voice analysis in adductor spasmodic dysphonia: Objective diagnosis and response to botulinum toxin.

Parkinsonism & related disorders
INTRODUCTION: Adductor-type spasmodic dysphonia is a task-specific focal dystonia characterized by involuntary laryngeal muscle spasms. Due to the lack of quantitative instrumental tools, voice assessment in patients with adductor-type spasmodic dysp...

Evaluation of Glomerular Filtration Rate in Chronic Kidney Disease by Radial Basis Function Neural Network.

Transplantation proceedings
OBJECTIVE: To develop a radial basis function (RBF) neural network and investigate its performance in the estimation of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) for patients with chronic kidney disease.

Automatic optic nerve head localization and cup-to-disc ratio detection using state-of-the-art deep-learning architectures.

Scientific reports
Computer vision has greatly advanced recently. Since AlexNet was first introduced, many modified deep learning architectures have been developed and they are still evolving. However, there are few studies comparing these architectures in the field of...

Artificial intelligence in fixed implant prosthodontics: a retrospective study of 106 implant-supported monolithic zirconia crowns inserted in the posterior jaws of 90 patients.

BMC oral health
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI) is a branch of computer science concerned with building smart software or machines capable of performing tasks that typically require human intelligence. We present a protocol for the use of AI to fabricate im...

Deep learning approaches for sleep disorder prediction in an asthma cohort.

The Journal of asthma : official journal of the Association for the Care of Asthma
OBJECTIVE: Sleep is a natural activity of humans that affects physical and mental health; therefore, sleep disturbance may lead to fatigue and lower productivity. This study examined 1 million samples included in the Taiwan National Health Insurance ...

Interpatient Similarities in Cardiac Function: A Platform for Personalized Cardiovascular Medicine.

JACC. Cardiovascular imaging
OBJECTIVES: The authors applied unsupervised machine-learning techniques for integrating echocardiographic features of left ventricular (LV) structure and function into a patient similarity network that predicted major adverse cardiac event(s) (MACE)...

Hierarchical Analysis of Factors Associated with T Staging of Gastric Cancer by Endoscopic Ultrasound.

Digestive diseases and sciences
BACKGROUND: Size, ulcer, differentiation, and location are known to be factors affecting the T stage accuracy of EUS in gastric cancer. However, whether an interaction exists among recognized variables is poorly understood. The aim of this study was ...
