Colorectal polyps are known to be potential precursors to colorectal cancer, which is one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths on a global scale. Early detection and prevention of colorectal cancer is primarily enabled through manual screen...
PURPOSE: To apply deep convolution neural network to the segmentation task in myocardial arterial spin labeled perfusion imaging and to develop methods that measure uncertainty and that adapt the convolution neural network model to a specific false-p...

The creation of machine learning algorithms for intelligent agents capable of continuous, lifelong learning is a critical objective for algorithms being deployed on real-life systems in dynamic environments. Here we present an algorithm inspired by n...
Machine learning algorithms hold the promise to effectively automate the analysis of histopathological images that are routinely generated in clinical practice. Any machine learning method used in the clinical diagnostic process has to be extremely a...

This paper solves the event-triggered passivity and synchronization problems for delayed multiple-weighted coupled reaction-diffusion neural networks (DMWCRDNNs) composed of non-identical nodes with and without parameter uncertainties. On one side, b...
Deep learning networks have recently been shown to outperform other segmentation methods on various public, medical-image challenge datasets, particularly on metrics focused on large pathologies. For diseases such as Multiple Sclerosis (MS), however,...

PURPOSE: Deep learning methods (DLMs) have recently been proposed to generate pseudo-CT (pCT) for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) based dose planning. This study aims to evaluate and compare DLMs (U-Net and generative adversarial network [GAN]) usin...
PURPOSE: Radiation doses accumulated during very complicated image-guided x-ray procedures have the potential to cause stochastic, but also deterministic effects, such as skin rashes or even hair loss. To monitor and reduce radiation-related risks to...
