Alzheimer's disease (AD) is known as one of the major causes of dementia and is characterized by slow progression over several years, with no treatments or available medicines. In this regard, there have been efforts to identify the risk of…
Leaf disease is a common fatal disease for plants. Early diagnosis and detection is necessary in order to improve the prognosis of leaf diseases affecting plant. For predicting leaf disease, several automated systems have already been…
Characterizing the dynamic interactive patterns of complex systems helps gain in-depth understanding of how components interrelate with each other while performing certain functions as a whole. In this study, we present a novel multimodal…
A primary goal of computational phenotype research is to conduct medical diagnosis. In hospital, physicians rely on massive clinical data to make diagnosis decisions, among which laboratory tests are one of the most important resources.…
A particular challenge for disease progression modeling is the heterogeneity of a disease and its manifestations in the patients. Existing approaches often assume the presence of a single disease progression characteristics which is…
We present the first meta-analysis of co-evolutionary learning networks for digital disease surveillance research over last 10 years. In doing so, we show the co-evolution and dynamical changes that occurred in academic research related to…
Comorbidity networks, which capture disease-disease co-occurrence usually based on electronic health records, reveal structured patterns in how diseases cluster and progress across individuals. However, how these networks evolve across…
Dementia is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder with multiple etiologies, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, frontotemporal dementia, and vascular dementia. Its clinical and biological heterogeneity makes diagnosis and…
Multimorbidity, the co-occurrence of two or more chronic diseases such as diabetes, obesity or cardiovascular diseases in one patient, is a frequent phenomenon. To make care more efficient, it is of relevance to understand how different…
Social network alignment, aligning different social networks on their common users, is receiving dramatic attention from both academic and industry. All existing studies consider the social network to be static and neglect its inherent…
In the domain of network biology, the interactions among heterogeneous genomic and molecular entities are represented through networks. Link prediction (LP) methodologies are instrumental in inferring missing or prospective associations…
