In this paper, a personal authentication system that can effectively identify individuals by generating unique electroencephalogram signal features in response to self-face and non-self-face photos is presented. To achieve performance stability, a se...
MOTIVATION: Alternative splice site selection is inherently competitive and the probability of a given splice site to be used also depends on the strength of neighboring sites. Here, we present a new model named the competitive splice site model (COS...
Sequencing by translocating DNA fragments through an array of nanopores is a rapidly maturing technology that offers faster and cheaper sequencing than other approaches. However, accurately deciphering the DNA sequence from the noisy and complex elec...
If the automatic item generation is used for generating test items, the question of how the equivalence among different instances may be tested is fundamental to assure an accurate assessment. In the present research, the question was dealt by using ...
How people look at visual information reveals fundamental information about them; their interests and their states of mind. Previous studies showed that scanpath, i.e., the sequence of eye movements made by an observer exploring a visual stimulus, ca...

Bayesian Networks (BNs) are often used for designing diagnosis decision support systems. They are a well-established method for reasoning under uncertainty and making inferences. But, eliciting the probabilities can be tedious and time-consuming espe...

We present a knowledge-base to represent collated infectious disease risk (IDR) knowledge. The knowledge is about personal and contextual risk of contracting an infectious disease obtained from declarative sources (e.g. Atlas of Human Infectious Dise...

PURPOSE: To develop an automated method of localizing and discerning multiple types of findings in retinal images using a limited set of training data without hard-coded feature extraction as a step toward generalizing these methods to rare disease d...
