Optimizing parameters on alignment of PCL/PGA nanofibrous scaffold: An artificial neural networks approach.

International journal of biological macromolecules
This paper proposes an artificial neural networks approach to finding the effects of electrospinning parameters on alignment of poly(ɛ-caprolactone)/poly(glycolic acid) blend nanofibers. Four electrospinning parameters, namely total polymer concentra...

Protein submitochondrial localization from integrated sequence representation and SVM-based backward feature extraction.

Molecular bioSystems
Mitochondrion, a tiny energy factory, plays an important role in various biological processes of most eukaryotic cells. Mitochondrial defection is associated with a series of human diseases. Knowledge of the submitochondrial locations of proteins can...

Measuring quality of life with fuzzy numbers: in the perspectives of reliability, validity, measurement invariance, and feasibility.

Quality of life research : an international journal of quality of life aspects of treatment, care and rehabilitation
PURPOSE: Fuzzy set theory (FST) can improve various aspects of measurement with questionnaires. However, very little is known about how to use FST to measure quality of life (QOL). The main purpose of our study was to find an appropriate fuzzy measur...

Hypoglycemia prediction using machine learning models for patients with type 2 diabetes.

Journal of diabetes science and technology
Minimizing the occurrence of hypoglycemia in patients with type 2 diabetes is a challenging task since these patients typically check only 1 to 2 self-monitored blood glucose (SMBG) readings per day. We trained a probabilistic model using machine lea...

Predictive Models Based on Support Vector Machines: Whole-Brain versus Regional Analysis of Structural MRI in the Alzheimer's Disease.

Journal of neuroimaging : official journal of the American Society of Neuroimaging
Decision-making systems trained on structural magnetic resonance imaging data of subjects affected by the Alzheimer's disease (AD) and healthy controls (CTRL) are becoming widespread prognostic tools for subjects with mild cognitive impairment (MCI)....

Artificial neural network modelling of biological oxygen demand in rivers at the national level with input selection based on Monte Carlo simulations.

Environmental science and pollution research international
Biological oxygen demand (BOD) is the most significant water quality parameter and indicates water pollution with respect to the present biodegradable organic matter content. European countries are therefore obliged to report annual BOD values to Eur...

Towards semantic-driven high-content image analysis: an operational instantiation for mitosis detection in digital histopathology.

Computerized medical imaging and graphics : the official journal of the Computerized Medical Imaging Society
This study concerns a novel symbolic cognitive vision framework emerged from the Cognitive Microscopy (MICO(1)) initiative. MICO aims at supporting the evolution towards digital pathology, by studying cognitive clinical-compliant protocols involving ...

3T MR-guided in-bore transperineal prostate biopsy: A comparison of robotic and manual needle-guidance templates.

Journal of magnetic resonance imaging : JMRI
PURPOSE: To demonstrate the utility of a robotic needle-guidance template device as compared to a manual template for in-bore 3T transperineal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided prostate biopsy.

Using Relevance Feedback to Distinguish the Changes in EEG During Different Absence Seizure Phases.

Clinical EEG and neuroscience
We carried out a series of statistical experiments to explore the utility of using relevance feedback on electroencephalogram (EEG) data to distinguish between different activity states in human absence epilepsy. EEG recordings from 10 patients with ...

Variability of automated carotid intima-media thickness measurements by novice operators.

Clinical physiology and functional imaging
Carotid intima-media thickness (C-IMT) measurements provide a non-invasive assessment of subclinical atherosclerosis. The aim of the study was to assess the inter- and intra-observer variability of automated C-IMT measurements undertaken by two novic...
