This paper aims to propose a distributed semi-supervised learning (D-SSL) algorithm to solve D-SSL problems, where training samples are often extremely large-scale and located on distributed nodes over communication networks. Training data of each no...
Establishing appropriate heatwave thresholds is important in reducing adverse human health consequences as it enables a more effective heatwave warning system and response plan. This paper defined such thresholds by focusing on the non-linear relatio...

An important question in microbiology is whether treatment causes changes in gut flora, and whether it also affects metabolism. The reconstruction of causal relations purely from non-temporal observational data is challenging. We address the problem ...
There is a critical need for better analytical methods to study mitochondria in normal and diseased states. Mitochondrial image analysis is typically done on still images using slow manual methods or automated methods of limited types of features. Mi...

Multiple kernel learning (MKL) as an approach to automated kernel selection plays an important role in machine learning. Some learning theories have been built to analyze the generalization of multiple kernel learning. However, less work has been stu...
Deformable image registration can be time consuming and often needs extensive parameterization to perform well on a specific application. We present a deformable registration method based on a 3-D convolutional neural network, together with a framewo...
OBJECTIVE: Electrocardiography is the most common tool to diagnose cardiovascular diseases. Annotation, segmentation and rhythm classification of ECGs are challenging tasks, especially in the presence of atrial fibrillation and other arrhythmias. Our...
