The synchronization problem for complex networks with time-varying delays of unknown bound is investigated in this paper. From the impulsive control point of view, a novel delayed impulsive differential inequality is proposed, where the bounds of tim...
Stress is one of the biggest problems in modern society. It may not be possible for people to perceive if they are under high stress or not. It is important to detect stress early and unobtrusively. In this context, stress detection can be considered...

This paper discusses the reachable set estimation problem of neural networks with mixed delays. Firstly, by means of the maximal Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, we obtain a non-ellipsoid form of the reachable set. Further more, when calculating the d...

OBJECTIVES: Robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) for primary lung cancer has been spreading rapidly in Japan. While RATS has various technical advantages over video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS), the quality of surgery from an oncologi...
The objective investigation of the dynamic properties of vocal fold vibrations demands the recording and further quantitative analysis of laryngeal high-speed video (HSV). Quantification of the vocal fold vibration patterns requires as a first step t...
OBJECTIVE: To construct and internally validate prediction models to estimate the risk of long-term end-organ complications and mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes and obesity that can be used to inform treatment decisions for patients and pra...
The service quality and system dependability of real-time communication networks strongly depends on the analysis of monitored data, to identify concrete problems and their causes. Many of these can be described by either their structural or temporal...
After admission to emergency department (ED), patients with critical illnesses are transferred to intensive care unit (ICU) due to unexpected clinical deterioration occurrence. Identifying such unplanned ICU transfers is urgently needed for medical p...

In this paper, a novel value iteration adaptive dynamic programming (ADP) algorithm is presented, which is called an improved value iteration ADP algorithm, to obtain the optimal policy for discrete stochastic processes. In the improved value iterati...
Background and Purpose- We aimed to investigate the ability of machine learning (ML) techniques analyzing diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) magnetic resonance imaging to identify patients within the reco...
