Plaque rupture and subsequent thrombosis are major processes of acute cardiovascular events. The Vulnerability Index is a very important indicator of whether a plaque is ruptured, and these easily ruptured or fragile plaques can be detected early. Th...
PURPOSE: Gadoxetic acid uptake rate (k ) obtained from dynamic, contrast-enhanced (DCE) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a promising measure of regional liver function. Clinical exams are typically poorly temporally characterized, as seen in a low...
OBJECTIVE: Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is expected to be applied to brain-computer interface (BCI) technologies. Since lengthy fNIRS measurements are uncomfortable for participants, it is difficult to obtain enough data to train cla...
Human activity recognition is an important and difficult topic to study because of the important variability between tasks repeated several times by a subject and between subjects. This work is motivated by providing time-series signal classification...
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is widely used for screening, diagnosis, image-guided therapy, and scientific research. A significant advantage of MRI over other imaging modalities such as computed tomography (CT) and nuclear imaging is that it clea...
Both humans and non-human animals exhibit sensitivity to the approximate number of items in a visual array, as indexed by their performance in numerosity discrimination tasks, and even neonates can detect changes in numerosity. These findings are oft...
Various additives are used in plastic products to improve the properties and the durability of the plastics. Their possible elution from the plastics when plastics are fragmented into micro- and nano-size in the environment is suspected to one of the...
Surface electromyography (sEMG) is an electrophysiological reflection of skeletal muscle contractile activity that can directly reflect neuromuscular activity. It has been a matter of research to investigate feature extraction methods of sEMG signals...

BACKGROUND: Magnetic resonance cine imaging is the accepted standard for cardiac functional assessment. Left ventricular (LV) segmentation plays a key role in volumetric functional quantification of the heart. Conventional manual analysis is time-con...
The release of wastewater from textile dyeing industrial sectors is a huge concern with regard to pollution as the treatment of these waters is truly a challenging process. Hence, this study investigates the triazo bond Direct Blue 71 (DB71) dye deco...
