PURPOSE: We present an automated method for extracting anatomical parameters from biplanar radiographs of the spine, which is able to deal with a wide scenario of conditions, including sagittal and coronal deformities, degenerative phenomena as well ...

We define behavior as a set of actions performed by some actor during a period of time. We consider the problem of analyzing a large collection of behaviors by multiple actors, more specifically, identifying typical behaviors and spotting anomalous b...
Nonlinear fuzzy classification models have better classification performance than linear fuzzy classifiers. In many nonlinear fuzzy classification problems, piecewise-linear fuzzy discriminant functions can approximate nonlinear fuzzy discriminant fu...
OBJECTIVE: Providing accurate and robust estimates of limb kinematics from recorded neural activities is prominent in closed-loop control of functional electrical stimulation (FES). A major issue in providing accurate decoding the limb kinematics is ...

Over the last years convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have shown remarkable results in different image classification tasks, including medical imaging. One area that has been less explored with CNNs is Positron Emission Tomography (PET). Fluorodeo...
OBJECTIVE: Spirometry, as the gold standard approach in the diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), has strict end of test (EOT) criteria (e.g. complete exhalation), which cannot be met by patients with compromised health states. T...
The utility of a prediction model depends on its generalizability to patients drawn from different but related populations. We explored whether a semi-supervised learning model could improve the generalizability of colorectal cancer (CRC) risk predic...
We propose to learn a low-dimensional probabilistic deformation model from data which can be used for the registration and the analysis of deformations. The latent variable model maps similar deformations close to each other in an encoding space. It ...

This paper presents a deep associative neural network (DANN) based on unsupervised representation learning for associative memory. In brain, the knowledge is learnt by associating different types of sensory data, such as image and voice. The associat...
