Deep learning (DL) has been used in the automatic diagnosis of Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer's Disease (AD) with brain imaging data. However, previous methods have not fully exploited the relation between brain image and…
Cardiovascular diseases are one of the most severe causes of mortality, taking a heavy toll of lives annually throughout the world. The continuous monitoring of blood pressure seems to be the most viable option, but this demands an invasive…
Cardiovascular disease is the leading global cause of mortality, with coronary artery disease (CAD) as its most prevalent form, necessitating early risk prediction. While 3D coronary artery digital twins reconstructed from imaging offer…
Deep learning (DL) models have shown significant potential in Alzheimer's Disease (AD) classification. However, understanding and interpreting these models remains challenging, which hinders the adoption of these models in clinical…
Despite their remarkable performance, deep neural networks remain unadopted in clinical practice, which is considered to be partially due to their lack in explainability. In this work, we apply attribution methods to a pre-trained deep…
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common cardiac arrhythmia and a major risk factor for ischemic stroke. Early detection of AF using non-invasive signals can enable timely intervention. In this work, we present a comprehensive machine learning…
Catheter ablation has limited therapeutic efficacy against non-paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF), and electrophysiological studies using mapping catheters have been applied to evaluate the AF substrate. However, many of these approaches…
Rare diseases affect an estimated 300-400 million people worldwide, yet individual conditions remain underdiagnosed and poorly characterized due to their low prevalence and limited clinician familiarity. Computational phenotyping offers a…
Alzheimer's disease (AD) affects 50 million people worldwide and is projected to overwhelm 152 million by 2050. AD is characterized by cognitive decline due partly to disruptions in metabolic brain connectivity. Thus, early and accurate…
Ventricular tachycardia (VT) can be one cause of sudden cardiac death affecting 4.25 million persons per year worldwide. A curative treatment is catheter ablation in order to inactivate the abnormally triggering regions. To facilitate and…
Respiratory diseases remain major global health challenges, and traditional auscultation is often limited by subjectivity, environmental noise, and inter-clinician variability. This study presents an explainable multimodal deep learning…
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a prevalent and debilitating neurodegenerative disorder impacting a large aging population. Detecting AD in all its presymptomatic and symptomatic stages is crucial for early intervention and treatment. An active…
Machine learning (ML) techniques such as (deep) artificial neural networks (DNN) are solving very successfully a plethora of tasks and provide new predictive models for complex physical, chemical, biological and social systems. However, in…
