An alternative bioinformatics approach based on fuzzy theory statistics and linear discriminant analysis is proposed for the interpretation of MALDI MS spectra in peptide profiling. When applied, the methodology enables the establishment of a reprodu...
In general, three-dimensional ground reaction forces (GRFs) and ground reaction moments (GRMs) that occur during human gait are measured using a force plate, which are expensive and have spatial limitations. Therefore, we proposed a prediction model ...
OBJECTIVE: To describe the technique of robotic buccal mucosa graft ureteroplasty as a minimally invasive alternative method of ureteral reconstruction for proximal or multifocal ureteral strictures not amenable to primary anastomosis.
Neuroimaging has identified many correlates of emotion but has not yet yielded brain representations predictive of the intensity of emotional experiences in individuals. We used machine learning to identify a sensitive and specific signature of emoti...
BACKGROUND: This study sought to predict postsurgical seizure freedom from pre-operative diagnostic test results and clinical information using a rapid automated approach, based on supervised learning methods in patients with drug-resistant focal sei...
OBJECT: Frame-based stereotactic interventions are considered the gold standard for brain biopsies, but they have limitations with regard to flexibility and patient comfort because of the bulky head ring attached to the patient. Frameless image guida...
