PURPOSE: To improve the performance of a denoising convolutional neural network (DnCNN) and to make it applicable to images with inhomogeneous noise, a refinement involving an activation function (AF) and an application of the refined method for inho...
A reliable identification of a high-risk state for upcoming seizures may allow for preemptive treatment and improve the quality of patients' lives. We evaluated the ability of prodromal symptoms to predict preictal states using a machine learning (ML...
In apartment houses, noise between floors can disturb pleasant living environments and cause disputes between neighbors. As a means of resolving disputes caused by inter-floor noise, noises are recorded for 24 hours in a household to verify whether t...
Assessing the health condition has a wide range of applications in healthcare, military, aerospace, and industrial fields. Nevertheless, traditional feature-engineered techniques involve manual feature extraction, which are too cumbersome to adapt to...
Transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) can non-invasively modulate neuronal activity in the cerebral cortex, in particular at the frequency of the applied stimulation. Such modulation can matter for speech processing, since the latter in...
PURPOSE: The Vesical Imaging Reporting and Data System (VI-RADS) was launched in 2018 to standardize reporting of magnetic resonance imaging for bladder cancer. This study aimed to prospectively validate VI-RADS using a next-generation magnetic reson...
To reduce noise pollution and consequently stress during robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP) the aim of our study was to evaluate the silent operation theatre optimisation system (SOTOS) in its effectiveness. In the operating roo...
