Decision-making is a flexible process dependent on the accumulation of various kinds of information; however, the corresponding neural mechanisms are far from clear. We extended a layered model of the frontal eye field to a learning-based model, usin...
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP) is a minimally invasive surgical procedure for prostate cancer. During RALP, the patient must be in a steep Trendelenburg (head-down) position, which leads to a significant increase...

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to define structure-function correlation of geographic atrophy (GA) on optical coherence tomography (OCT) and functional testing on microperimetry (MP) based on deep-learning (DL)-quantified spectral-domain OCT ...
In crowding, perception of a target deteriorates in the presence of nearby elements. As the entire stimulus configuration across large parts of the visual field influences crowding and not just nearby elements, low-level explanations, such as local p...

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to develop a deep learning approach that restores artifact-laden optical coherence tomography (OCT) scans and predicts functional loss on the 24-2 Humphrey Visual Field (HVF) test.
PURPOSE: To use neural network machine learning (ML) models to identify the most relevant ocular biomarkers for the diagnosis of primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG).
PURPOSE: This study uses deep neural network-generated rim-to-disc area ratio (RADAR) measurements and the disc damage likelihood scale (DDLS) to measure the rate of optic disc rim loss in a large cohort of glaucoma patients.
