Liver vessel segmentation based on extreme learning machine.

Physica medica : PM : an international journal devoted to the applications of physics to medicine and biology : official journal of the Italian Association of Biomedical Physics (AIFB)
Liver-vessel segmentation plays an important role in vessel structure analysis for liver surgical planning. This paper presents a liver-vessel segmentation method based on extreme learning machine (ELM). Firstly, an anisotropic filter is used to remo...

Deep Learning Representation from Electroencephalography of Early-Stage Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease and Features for Differentiation from Rapidly Progressive Dementia.

International journal of neural systems
A novel technique of quantitative EEG for differentiating patients with early-stage Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) from other forms of rapidly progressive dementia (RPD) is proposed. The discrimination is based on the extraction of suitable features...

Cascaded Adaptation Framework for Fast Calibration of Myoelectric Control.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
In spite of several decades of intensive research and development, the existing algorithms of myoelectric pattern recognition (MPR) are yet to make significant clinical and commercial impact. This study focuses on the one of the limiting factors of c...

A framework for the automatic detection and characterization of brain malformations: Validation on the corpus callosum.

Medical image analysis
In this paper, we extend the one-class Support Vector Machine (SVM) and the regularized discriminative direction analysis to the Multiple Kernel (MK) framework, providing an effective analysis pipeline for the detection and characterization of brain ...

Network-based classification of ADHD patients using discriminative subnetwork selection and graph kernel PCA.

Computerized medical imaging and graphics : the official journal of the Computerized Medical Imaging Society
BACKGROUND: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is one of the most prevalent behavioral disorders in childhood and adolescence. Recently, network-based diagnosis of ADHD has attracted great attentions due to the fact that ADHD disease is ...

Metastatic liver tumour segmentation with a neural network-guided 3D deformable model.

Medical & biological engineering & computing
The segmentation of liver tumours in CT images is useful for the diagnosis and treatment of liver cancer. Furthermore, an accurate assessment of tumour volume aids in the diagnosis and evaluation of treatment response. Currently, segmentation is perf...

A comparison of accuracy of fall detection algorithms (threshold-based vs. machine learning) using waist-mounted tri-axial accelerometer signals from a comprehensive set of falls and non-fall trials.

Medical & biological engineering & computing
Falls are the leading cause of injury-related morbidity and mortality among older adults. Over 90 % of hip and wrist fractures and 60 % of traumatic brain injuries in older adults are due to falls. Another serious consequence of falls among older adu...

Automatic coronary artery calcium scoring in cardiac CT angiography using paired convolutional neural networks.

Medical image analysis
The amount of coronary artery calcification (CAC) is a strong and independent predictor of cardiovascular events. CAC is clinically quantified in cardiac calcium scoring CT (CSCT), but it has been shown that cardiac CT angiography (CCTA) may also be ...

A self-taught artificial agent for multi-physics computational model personalization.

Medical image analysis
Personalization is the process of fitting a model to patient data, a critical step towards application of multi-physics computational models in clinical practice. Designing robust personalization algorithms is often a tedious, time-consuming, model- ...

Folded concave penalized learning in identifying multimodal MRI marker for Parkinson's disease.

Journal of neuroscience methods
BACKGROUND: Brain MRI holds promise to gauge different aspects of Parkinson's disease (PD)-related pathological changes. Its analysis, however, is hindered by the high-dimensional nature of the data.
