OBJECTIVE: This retrospective and exploratory study tested the accuracy of artificial neural networks (ANNs) at detecting Alzheimer's disease patients with dementia (ADD) based on input variables extracted from resting-state electroencephalogram (rsE...
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) emerged in 2019 and disseminated around the world rapidly. Computed tomography (CT) imaging has been proven to be an important tool for screening, disease quantification and staging. The latter is of extreme import...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: An accurate segmentation of lung nodules in computed tomography images is a crucial step for the physical characterization of the tumour. Being often completely manually accomplished, nodule segmentation turns to be a tediou...
Lung segmentation is a key step of thoracic computed tomography (CT) image processing, and it plays an important role in computer-aided pulmonary disease diagnostics. However, the presence of image noises, pathologies, vessels, individual anatomical ...
PURPOSE: Volumetric pancreas segmentation can be used in the diagnosis of pancreatic diseases, the research about diabetes and surgical planning. Since manual delineation is time-consuming and laborious, we develop a deep learning-based framework for...
PURPOSE: The human brain has two cerebral hemispheres that are roughly symmetric and separated by a midline, which is nearly a straight line shown in axial computed tomography (CT) images in healthy subjects. However, brain diseases such as hematoma ...
We evaluated the reproducibility of computer-aided detections (CADs) with a convolutional neural network (CNN) on chest radiographs (CXRs) of abnormal pulmonary patterns in patients, acquired within a short-term interval. Anonymized CXRs (n = 9792) o...
Recent advances in network science, control theory, and fractional calculus provide us with mathematical tools necessary for modeling and controlling complex dynamical networks (CDNs) that exhibit long-term memory. Selecting the minimum number of dri...
