The condition of hypotension - where a person's arterial blood pressure drops to an abnormally low level - is a common and potentially fatal occurrence in patients under intensive care. As medical interventions to treat such events are typically reactive and often aggressive, there would be great benefit in having a prediction system that can warn health-care professionals of an impending event and...
Paediatric endocrinology is a medical specialty dealing with variations of physical growth and sexual development in childhood. Genetic anomalies that can cause disorders of sexual development in children are rare. Given this, sharing and collaboration on the small number of cases that occur is needed by clinical experts in the field. The EU-funded EuroDSD project (www.eurodsd.eu) is one such collaboration...
In this paper, we use neural networks and support vector machines (SVMpsilas) to compare the classification performances of four proposed image features. Of the four image features, two are developed by the authors, whereas the other two are well-known image features which we included for benchmark purposes. Indirectly the performances of the two image classifiers are compared. Based on the experiments...
Progressive content access provides a mode that allows a coarse version of an image being viewed at a lower computing cost and then gradually refined by subsequent resolution enhancement if required. This proves extremely useful when millions of compressed images and video sequences need to be browsed manually or processed in pixel domain, saving the cost and removing the necessity of full decompression...
The protein data bank (PDB), at Brookhaven National Laboratory, is a database containing information on experimentally determined three-dimensional structures of proteins, nucleic acids, and other biological macromolecules, with approximately 9000 entries. The PDB has a 27-year history of service to a global community of researchers, educators, and students in a wide variety of scientific disciplines...
