Based on a convolutional neural network (CNN) approach, this article proposes an improved ResNet-18 model for heartbeat classification of electrocardiogram (ECG) signals through appropriate model training and parameter adjustment. Due to the unique r...
PURPOSE: With rising safety concerns over the use of gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) in contrast-enhanced MRI, there is a need for dose reduction while maintaining diagnostic capability. This work proposes comprehensive technical solutions f...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Portable confocal microscopy (PCM) is a low-cost reflectance confocal microscopy technique that can visualize cellular details of human skin in vivo. When PCM images are acquired with a short exposure time to reduce motion b...
PURPOSE: The low-dose computed tomography (CT) imaging can reduce the damage caused by x-ray radiation to the human body. However, low-dose CT images have a different degree of artifacts than conventional CT images, and their resolution is lower than...

As a major method for relation extraction, distantly supervised relation extraction (DSRE) suffered from the noisy label problem and class imbalance problem (these two problems are also common for many other NLP tasks, e.g., text classification). How...
Diffuse reverberation is ultrasound image noise caused by multiple reflections of the transmitted pulse before returning to the transducer, which degrades image quality and impedes the estimation of displacement or flow in techniques such as elastogr...
Background Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) generates an image by subtracting a mask image from a dynamic angiogram. However, patient movement-caused misregistration artifacts can result in unclear DSA images that interrupt procedures. Purpose T...
INTRODUCTION: The success of parallel Magnetic Resonance Imaging algorithms like SENSitivity Encoding (SENSE) depends on an accurate estimation of the receiver coil sensitivity maps. Deep learning-based receiver coil sensitivity map estimation depend...
