Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of Neuromuscular Diseases Using Complexity of Electromyogram SignalsKawser Ahammed, Mosabber Uddin AhmedCharacterization of Electromyogram (EMG) signals is important for identifying neuromuscular diseases. Although various techniques were implemented for classification, none of them were implemented in the complexity domain. In this study, characterization of EMG signals recorded from healthy, neuropathic and myopathic subjects has been performed in complexity domain based on Multiscale Entropy (MSE) method. To do this, the multiscale entropy method … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 7 Dec 2019 · 7,935 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProcalcitonin and Clinical Factors Associated with Severe Dengue Infection in Hospitalized Adults in MalaysiaHuzairi Sani, Nada Syazana, Zahir Izuan et al.Dengue Fever (DF) is the commonest mosquito-borne viral infection that results in hospitalisation amongst patients in Malaysia. The cornerstone of managing dengue virus infection is the prediction hence prevention of severe DF from developing. Warning signs proposed by WHO as clinical predictors of severe DF are insensitive. Procalcitonin (PCT) has been shown to increase in bacterial infections and is useful … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 3 Dec 2019 · 7,362 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOne Real-Time Fluorescent Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification Combined with Propidium Monoazide for Detection of Viable Vibrio Parahaemolyticus in SeafoodHuanteng Yu, Jiehong Fang, Biao Ma et al.Vibrio parahaemolyticus is one of the crucial foodborne pathogens in the world. At present, the rapid detection methods for V. parahaemolyticus cannot distinguish between dead and viable cells and false positive results may occur. In this study, one rapid and accurate method that combines Propidium Monoazide (PMA) with real-time fluorescent loop-mediated isothermal ampli?cation (LAMP) using SYTO-16 dye was developed to … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 26 Jun 2019 · 7,593 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractONCObc-ST: An Improved Clinical Reasoning Algorithm Based on Select and Test (ST) Algorithm for Diagnosing Breast CancerOlaide Nathaniel Oyelade, Sunday Adeyemi AdewuyiThe need for an accurate reasoning algorithm is usually necessitated by the sensitivity of domain of (medicine as example) application of such algorithms. Most reasoning algorithms for medical diagnosis are either limited by their techniques or accuracy and efficiency. Even the Select and Test (ST) algorithm which is considered a more approximate reasoning algorithm is also limited by its approach … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 15 Apr 2019 · 7,168 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Analysis of Various Diagnostic Methods for Trichomonas Vaginalis Infection in Trinidad and TobagoAruna Kumari Divakaruni, Bisram Mahabir, FA Orrett et al.Trichomonas vaginalis infection is a common sexually transmitted infection in the reproductive age group, which may lead to complications. Wet mount examination is the most common test for diagnosis, but it has low sensitivity. Fluorescent antibody staining can be used for diagnosis, but it is expensive and requires special microscopic facility. Culture is considered as the gold standard, but it … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 6 Oct 2018 · 8,064 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy of Segmentation Technique and Stereology to Detect PCO Follicles on USG ImagesUntari Novia Wisesty, Irba Fairuz Thufailah, Ria May Dewi et al.Polycystic Ovary Syndrome is a hormonal health problem in women who are in the reproductive period. One feature of this syndrome is that there are 12 or more follicles in the ovary with a diameter of 2-9 mm. This syndrome can cause menstrual cycles problems and even a problem in conceiving a child. Currently, follicle detection is still done manually … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 13 Mar 2018 · 8,778 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAutomatic Detection of Exudates in Retinal Images using Region-Based, Neighborhood and Block OperationKittipol Wisaeng, Worawat Sa-NgiamviboolExudates detection is one of the research areas attracting great attention of physicians and scientists. A region-based, neighborhood, block operation and optimal global thresholding are proposed as new methods to exudates detection. The exudates are coarse and fine segmentation following preprocessing steps, i.e., color mapping, image contrast enhancement, fuzzy filtering and optic disc localization. To classify the retinal images into … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 21 Feb 2018 · 7,987 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Comparative Study of Data Mining approaches for Bag of Visual Words Based Image ClassificationSahar Abd El Hameed Mokhtar, Heba Ahmed ElnemrImage classification is one of the most significant and challenging tasks in computer vision. The goal of this task is to build a system that is capable to reveal an image label within a collection of different image categories. This paper presents and discusses the application of various data mining techniques for image classification based on Bag of Visual Words … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 12 Jan 2018 · 7,990 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSegmentation of Exudates via Color-based K-means Clustering and Statistical-based ThresholdingAtef Zaki Ghalwash, Aliaa Abdel-Halim Youssif, Ali Mohamed Nabil AllamThis paper provides a novel approach for the problem of detecting the yellowish lesions in the eye fundus images, such as hard and soft exudates, in a fully-automated manner. To solve this problem of segmenting exudates automatically, the fundus image was first converted into the L*a*b* color space to decouple the chromaticity information of the image. Next, the fundus image … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 13, Issue 10 · 14 Oct 2017 · 7,729 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCloud Based Low Cost Retinal Detachment Screening Method Using Data Mining TechniquesMahmoud A. Fakhreldin, Ahmed F. SeddikThe Electro-Oculogram (EOG) signal can be used for detecting the normality of the eye retina. A number of advantages including the flexibility of the recoding process for EOG signals have encouraged insight into EOG based research. This study proposes a new cloud based retinal detachment screening technique based on data mining techniques to diagnose the type of eye retina.
