Chemosphere
Aug 1, 2018
Aljustrel mining area (South Portugal) belongs to the Iberian Pyrite Belt (IPB). It is classified of high environmental risk due to its large tailings and to the Acid Mine Drainage (AMD) affected waters, generated by sulphides' oxidation. Integrating...
Sex determination from the femur in Portuguese populations with classical and machine-learning classifiers.
Journal of forensic and legal medicine
Aug 24, 2017
The assessment of sex is of paramount importance in the establishment of the biological profile of a skeletal individual. Femoral relevance for sex estimation is indisputable, particularly when other exceedingly dimorphic skeletal regions are missing...
Evolution of Collective Behaviors for a Real Swarm of Aquatic Surface Robots.
PloS one
Mar 21, 2016
Swarm robotics is a promising approach for the coordination of large numbers of robots. While previous studies have shown that evolutionary robotics techniques can be applied to obtain robust and efficient self-organized behaviors for robot swarms, m...
Sex estimation from the tarsal bones in a Portuguese sample: a machine learning approach.
International journal of legal medicine
Sep 4, 2014
Sex estimation is extremely important in the analysis of human remains as many of the subsequent biological parameters are sex specific (e.g., age at death, stature, and ancestry). When dealing with incomplete or fragmented remains, metric analysis o...
Real-time FT-IR typing of Klebsiella pneumoniae: a flexible and rapid approach for outbreak detection and infection control.
The Journal of antimicrobial chemotherapy
Jul 1, 2025
BACKGROUND: Expansion of carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae (CP-Kp) is driven by within-hospital transmission, requiring timely typing data for effective infection control.

May 15, 2025
This study analyzes 159 master's theses in Medical Informatics from the University of Porto, spanning 2006 to 2023, to identify key trends, thematic focuses, and research gaps. Frequent topics include application and system development, database mana...
Development and validation of artificial intelligence-based prescreening of large-bowel biopsies taken in the UK and Portugal: a retrospective cohort study.
The Lancet. Digital health
Nov 1, 2023
BACKGROUND: Histopathological examination is a crucial step in the diagnosis and treatment of many major diseases. Aiming to facilitate diagnostic decision making and improve the workload of pathologists, we developed an artificial intelligence (AI)-...
Learning Portuguese Clinical Word Embeddings: A Multi-Specialty and Multi-Institutional Corpus of Clinical Narratives Supporting a Downstream Biomedical Task.
Studies in health technology and informatics
Aug 21, 2019
In this paper, we trained a set of Portuguese clinical word embedding models of different granularities from multi-specialty and multi-institutional clinical narrative datasets. Then, we assessed their impact on a downstream biomedical NLP task of Ur...
Consumer Health Vocabulary: A Proposal for a Brazilian Portuguese Language.
Studies in health technology and informatics
Jan 1, 2015
Studies show a gap between the expressions commonly used by health consumers and health professionals. To bridge this gap, consumer health vocabularies are presented as a solution. The aim of this paper is to describe an on-going project to create a ...
