Portable NIR Spectroscopy Combined with Machine Learning for Kiwi Ripeness Classification: An Approach to Precision Farming

This study aims to evaluate and classify the ripening stages of yellow-fleshed kiwifruit by integrating spectral and physicochemical data collected from the pre-harvest phase through 60 days of storage. A portable near-infrared (NIR) spectr...

Machine learning-assisted three-dimensional mapping of the facial soft tissues in Saudi Arabian adults with skeletal class I relationship

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to evaluate facial soft-tissue features in adults with skeletal Class I relationships using three-dimensional (3D) imaging and machine learning to identify sex-specific anthropometric patterns and provide refere...

PosturAll: A Posture Assessment Software for Children

From an early age, people are exposed to risk factors that can lead to musculoskeletal disorders like low back pain, neck pain and scoliosis. Medical screenings at an early age might minimize their incidence. The study intends to improve a ...

Machine Learning in Medicine

Interview with Dr. Isaac Kohane on machine learning in medicine. (16:31)Download In this view of the future of medicine, patient–provider interactions are informed and supported by massive amounts of data from interactions with similar pati...

A flexible analytic wavelet transform and ensemble bagged tree model for electroencephalogram-based meditative mind-wandering detection

Mind-wandering (MW) is when an individual’s concentration drifts away from the task or activity. Researchers found a greater variability in electroencephalogram (EEG) signals due to MW. Collecting more nuanced information from raw EEG data ...

Computer Vision-Based Assessment of Motor Functioning in Schizophrenia: Use of Smartphones for Remote Measurement of Schizophrenia Symptomatology

Introduction: Motor abnormalities have been shown to be a distinct component of schizophrenia symptomatology. However, objective and scalable methods for assessment of motor functioning in schizophrenia are lacking. Advancements in machine ...

Discovering subtypes with imaging signatures in the Motoric Cognitive Risk Syndrome Consortium using weakly supervised clustering

ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION Understanding the heterogeneity of brain structure in individuals with the Motoric Cognitive Risk Syndrome (MCR) may improve the current risk assessments of dementia. METHODS We used data from six cohorts from the MCR ...

Hybrid machine learning and 3D numerical modeling-based multi-objective optimization of geosynthetic-reinforced pile-supported embankments

Efficient and reliable design of Geosynthetic Reinforced Pile-Supported (GRPS) embankments on soft ground remains challenging due to the complex nonlinear soil–structure interaction and the high computational cost of repeated numerical anal...

Predicting Urban Quality of Life Using Machine Learning on Street Images and Personal Information with Statistical Feature Selection: A Comparative Study of Bangkok and London

This study proposes a machine learning framework for predicting perceived urban quality of life (QoL) by integrating visual features from street-level imagery with personal attributes, including demographic, socioeconomic, and travel behavi...

Enhancing host-pathogen phenotyping dynamics: early detection of tomato bacterial diseases using hyperspectral point measurement and predictive modeling

Early diagnosis of plant diseases is needed to promote sustainable plant protection strategies. Applied predictive modeling over hyperspectral spectroscopy (HS) data can be an effective, fast, cost-effective approach for improving plant dis...

Surface circulation properties in the eastern Mediterranean emphasized using machine learning methods

The eastern Mediterranean surface circulation is highly energetic and composed of structures interacting stochastically. However, some main features are still debated, and the behavior of some fine-scale dynamics and their role in shaping t...
