Diffusion-weighted MR imaging (DWI) is the only method we currently have to measure connections between different parts of the human brain in vivo. To elucidate the structure of these connections, algorithms for tracking bundles of axonal…
Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a genetic heart disease affecting approximately 1 in 500 people and is the leading cause of sudden cardiac death in young athletes. Current diagnostic methods -- cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR),…
Neurodegeneration affects cortical gray matter leading to loss of cortical mantle volume. As a result of such volume loss, the geometrical arrangement of the regions on the cortical surface is expected to be altered in comparison to healthy…
A wide range of neurological and cognitive disorders exhibit distinct behavioral markers aside from their clinical manifestations. Cortical Visual Impairment (CVI) is a prime example of such conditions, resulting from damage to visual…
Recent measurements of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) by the Planck Collaboration have produced arguably the most powerful observational evidence in support of the standard model of cosmology, i.e. the spatially flat $\Lambda$CDM…
Effective connectivity analysis in functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies directional interactions among brain regions and experimental stimuli. Dynamic causal modeling (DCM) is a widely used method to estimate effective…
Standard differential privacy imposes uniform privacy constraints across all features, overlooking the inherent distinction between sensitive and insensitive features in practice. In this paper, we introduce a relaxed definition of…
Human activity recognition serves as the foundation for various emerging applications. In recent years, researchers have used collaborative sensing of multi-source sensors to capture complex and dynamic human activities. However, multimodal…
The standard analysis of the CMB data assumes that the distance to the last scattering surface can be calculated using the distance-redshift relation as in the Friedmann model. However, in the inhomogeneous universe, even if <\delta\rho>…
CMB full-sky temperature data show a hemispherical asymmetry in power nearly aligned with the Ecliptic. In real space, this anomaly can be quantified by the temperature variance in the northern and southern Ecliptic hemispheres, with the…
3D volume segmentation is a fundamental task in many scientific and medical applications. Producing accurate segmentations efficiently is challenging, in part due to low imaging data quality (e.g., noise and low image resolution) and…
Loop Closure Detection (LCD) is the essential module in the simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) task. In the current appearance-based SLAM methods, the visual inputs are usually affected by illumination, appearance and viewpoints…
A large driver of the complexity of graph learning is the interplay between structure and features. When analyzing the expressivity of graph neural networks, however, existing approaches ignore features in favor of structure, making it…
Brain morphometry study plays a fundamental role in neuroimaging research. In this work, we propose a novel method for brain surface morphometry analysis based on surface foliation theory. Given brain cortical surfaces with automatically…
Estimating brain age (BA) from T1-weighted magnetic resonance images (MRIs) provides a powerful framework for quantifying anatomical brain aging. Whereas global BA (GBA) summarizes overall brain health, local BA (LBA) provides cortically…
The shape and diversity of dwarf galaxy rotation curves is at apparent odds with dark matter halos in a $\Lambda$ Cold Dark Matter ($\Lambda$CDM) cosmology. We use mock data from isolated dwarf galaxy simulations to show that this owes to…
Medical artificial intelligence (AI) systems, particularly multimodal vision-language models (VLM), often exhibit intersectional biases where models are systematically less confident in diagnosing marginalised patient subgroups. Such bias…
Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Accurate survival prediction is essential for treatment stratification, yet existing pathology foundation models often overlook…
Cytometry experiments yield high-dimensional point cloud data that is difficult to interpret manually. Boolean gating techniques coupled with comparisons of relative abundances of cellular subsets is the current standard for cytometry data…
Cardiovascular-Kidney-Metabolic (CKM) syndrome represents a growing public health crisis, yet the subclinical heterogeneity of its component systems remains underexplored. Early detection of physiological deviation is critical for…
