A machine learning approach for the identification of population-informative markers from high-throughput genotyping data: application to several pig breeds.

Animal : an international journal of animal bioscience
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) able to describe population differences can be used for important applications in livestock, including breed assignment of individual animals, authentication of mono-breed products and parentage verification amo...

Extended-wavelength diffuse reflectance spectroscopy with a machine-learning method for in vivo tissue classification.

PloS one
OBJECTIVES: An extended-wavelength diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (EWDRS) technique was evaluated for its ability to differentiate between and classify different skin and tissue types in an in vivo pig model.

Detection and Monitoring of Thermal Lesions Induced by Microwave Ablation Using Ultrasound Imaging and Convolutional Neural Networks.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Microwave ablation (MWA) for cancer treatment is frequently monitored by ultrasound (US) B-mode imaging in the clinic, which often fails due to the low intrinsic contrast between the thermal lesion and normal tissue. Deep learning, especially convolu...

An Integrated Sensor-Model Approach for Haptic Feedback of Flexible Endoscopic Robots.

Annals of biomedical engineering
Haptic feedback for flexible endoscopic surgical robots is challenging due to space constraints for sensors and shape-dependent force hysteresis of tendon-sheath mechanisms (TSMs). This paper proposes (1) a single-axis fiber Bragg grating (FBG)-based...

Deep Learning and Machine Vision Approaches for Posture Detection of Individual Pigs.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Posture detection targeted towards providing assessments for the monitoring of health and welfare of pigs has been of great interest to researchers from different disciplines. Existing studies applying machine vision techniques are mostly based on me...

Machine-learning algorithms to identify key biosecurity practices and factors associated with breeding herds reporting PRRS outbreak.

Preventive veterinary medicine
Investments in biosecurity practices are made by producers to reduce the likelihood of introducing pathogens such as porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSv). The assessment of biosecurity practices in breeding herds is usually don...

Force classification during robotic interventions through simulation-trained neural networks.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: Intravitreal injection is among the most frequent treatment strategies for chronic ophthalmic diseases. The last decade has seen a serious increase in the number of intravitreal injections, and with it, adverse effects and drawbacks. To tack...

Development of the Self Optimising Kohonen Index Network (SKiNET) for Raman Spectroscopy Based Detection of Anatomical Eye Tissue.

Scientific reports
Raman spectroscopy shows promise as a tool for timely diagnostics via in-vivo spectroscopy of the eye, for a number of ophthalmic diseases. By measuring the inelastic scattering of light, Raman spectroscopy is able to reveal detailed chemical charact...

Using machine learning to characterize heart failure across the scales.

Biomechanics and modeling in mechanobiology
Heart failure is a progressive chronic condition in which the heart undergoes detrimental changes in structure and function across multiple scales in time and space. Multiscale models of cardiac growth can provide a patient-specific window into the p...

Meat quality evaluation based on computer vision technique: A review.

Meat science
Nowadays people tend to include more meat in their diet thanks to the improvement in standards of living as well as an increase in awareness of meat nutritive values. To ensure public health, therefore, there is a need for a rise in worldwide meat pr...
