Although the heart has complex three-dimensional (3D) anatomy, conventional medical imaging with cardiac ultrasound relies on a series of 2D videos showing individual cardiac structures. 3D echocardiography is a developing modality that now…
Neuroimaging data allows researchers to model the relationship between multivariate patterns of brain activity and outcomes related to mental states and behaviors. However, the existence of outlying participants can potentially undermine…
There is no single prevailing theory of pain that explains its origin, qualities, and alleviation. Although many studies have investigated various molecular targets for pain management, few have attempted to examine the etiology or working…
In this paper, we present a multimodal approach to simultaneously analyze facial movements and several peripheral physiological signals to decode individualized affective experiences under positive and negative emotional contexts, while…
Orthognathic surgery consultation is essential to help patients understand the changes to their facial appearance after surgery. However, current visualization methods are often inefficient and inaccurate due to limited pre- and…
Emotion plays a significant role in our daily life. Recognition of emotion is wide-spread in the field of health care and human-computer interaction. Emotion is the result of the coordinated activities of cortical and subcortical neural…
Facial pain expression is an important modality for assessing pain, especially when the patient's verbal ability to communicate is impaired. The facial muscle-based action units (AUs), which are defined by the Facial Action Coding System…
Tissue assessment for chronic wounds is the basis of wound grading and selection of treatment approaches. While several image processing approaches have been proposed for automatic wound tissue analysis, there has been a shortcoming in…
The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic revealed the criticality of timely intervention in a situation exacerbated by a shortage in medical staff and equipment. Pain-level screening is the initial step toward identifying the severity of…
Although pain is frequent in old age, older adults are often undertreated for pain. This is especially the case for long-term care residents with moderate to severe dementia who cannot report their pain because of cognitive impairments that…
Existing 3D facial emotion modeling have been constrained by limited emotion classes and insufficient datasets. This paper introduces "Emo3D", an extensive "Text-Image-Expression dataset" spanning a wide spectrum of human emotions, each…
Biometric measurements captured from medical devices, such as blood pressure gauges, glucose monitors, and weighing scales, are essential to tracking a patient's health. Trends in these measurements can accurately track diabetes,…
Emotion recognition technology has been studied from the past decade. With its growing importance and applications such as customer service, medical, education, etc., this research study aims to explore its potential and importance in the…
There is an increasing consensus among re- searchers that making a computer emotionally intelligent with the ability to decode human affective states would allow a more meaningful and natural way of human-computer interactions (HCIs). One…
In this paper, we propose a novel approach to enhance the 3D body pose estimation of a person computed from videos captured from a single wearable camera. The key idea is to leverage high-level features linking first- and third-views in a…
We propose a viewpoint invariant model for 3D human pose estimation from a single depth image. To achieve this, our discriminative model embeds local regions into a learned viewpoint invariant feature space. Formulated as a multi-task…
Automatic pain recognition is paramount for medical diagnosis and treatment. The existing works fall into three categories: assessing facial appearance changes, exploiting physiological cues, or fusing them in a multi-modal manner. However,…
Chronic wounds affect a large population, particularly the elderly and diabetic patients, who often exhibit limited mobility and co-existing health conditions. Automated wound monitoring via mobile image capture can reduce in-person…
Sensing the medical scenario can ensure the safety during the surgical operations. So, in this regard, a monitor platform which can obtain the accurate location information of the surgery room is desperately needed. Compared to 2D camera…
EEG-based analysis of pain perception, enhanced by machine learning, reveals how the brain encodes pain by identifying neural patterns evoked by noxious stimulation. However, a major challenge that remains is the generalization of machine…
