Improving neural network classification of indigenous forest in New Zealand with phenological features.

Journal of environmental management
Accurate and up-to-date land cover maps inform and support effective management and policy decisions. Describing phenological changes in spectral response using time-series data may help to distinguish vegetation types, thereby allowing for more spec...

"We're Still Struggling a Bit to Actually Figure Out What That Means for Government": An Exploration of the Policy Capacity Required to Oversee Robot Technologies in Australia and New Zealand Care Services.

International journal of environmental research and public health
Many countries are experiencing a "care crisis" driven by increasing demand for care services alongside difficulties in recruiting and retaining an appropriate care workforce. One of the solutions offered to this is the use of robotic technologies. W...

Automated pneumothorax triaging in chest X-rays in the New Zealand population using deep-learning algorithms.

Journal of medical imaging and radiation oncology
INTRODUCTION: The primary aim was to develop convolutional neural network (CNN)-based artificial intelligence (AI) models for pneumothorax classification and segmentation for automated chest X-ray (CXR) triaging. A secondary aim was to perform interp...

Coastal Image Classification and Pattern Recognition: Tairua Beach, New Zealand.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The study of coastal processes is critical for the protection and development of beach amenities, infrastructure, and properties. Many studies of beach evolution rely on data collected using remote sensing and show that beach evolution can be charact...

THEIA™ development, and testing of artificial intelligence-based primary triage of diabetic retinopathy screening images in New Zealand.

Diabetic medicine : a journal of the British Diabetic Association
AIM: To develop and evaluate an artificial intelligence triage system with high sensitivity for detecting referable diabetic retinopathy and maculopathy, while maintaining high specificity for non-referable disease, for clinical implementation within...

Comparison of Support Vector Machine, Naïve Bayes and Logistic Regression for Assessing the Necessity for Coronary Angiography.

International journal of environmental research and public health
(1) Background: Coronary angiography is considered to be the most reliable method for the diagnosis of cardiovascular disease. However, angiography is an invasive procedure that carries a risk of complications; hence, it would be preferable for an ap...

A machine learning model for predicting risk of hospital readmission within 30 days of discharge: validated with LACE index and patient at risk of hospital readmission (PARR) model.

Medical & biological engineering & computing
The objective of this study was to design and develop a predictive model for 30-day risk of hospital readmission using machine learning techniques. The proposed predictive model was then validated with the two most commonly used risk of readmission m...

A predictive model of recreational water quality based on adaptive synthetic sampling algorithms and machine learning.

Water research
Predicting recreational water quality is one of the most difficult tasks in water management with major implications for humans and society. Many data-driven models have been used to predict water quality indicators to allow a real time assessment of...

Towards implementation of AI in New Zealand national diabetic screening program: Cloud-based, robust, and bespoke.

PloS one
Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have become a prominent method of AI implementation in medical classification tasks. Grading Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) has been at the forefront of the development of AI for ophthalmology. However, major obstacles...

Characterization of phenolic compounds and aroma active compounds in feijoa juice from four New Zealand grown cultivars by LC-MS and HS-SPME-GC-O-MS.

Food research international (Ottawa, Ont.)
The phenolic compounds and aroma active compounds in feijoa (Acca sellowiana (O.Berg) Burret) juice from four New Zealand grown cultivars (Apollo, Unique, Opal Star, and Wiki Tu) were investigated. A high total phenolic content (maximum 1.89 mg GAE/m...
