Heart Failure Emergency Readmission Prediction Using Stacking Machine Learning Model.

Heart failure is a devastating disease that has high mortality rates and a negative impact on quality of life. Heart failure patients often experience emergency readmission after an initial episode, often due to inadequate management. A timely diagnosis and treatment of underlying issues can significantly reduce the risk of emergency readmissions.

In Search of an Efficient and Reliable Deep Learning Model for Identification of COVID-19 Infection from Chest X-ray Images.

The virus responsible for COVID-19 is mutating day by day with more infectious characteristics. With the limited healthcare resources and overburdened medical practitioners, it is almost impossible to contain this virus. The automatic identification of this viral infection from chest X-ray (CXR) images is now more demanding as it is a cheaper and less time-consuming diagnosis option.

Exploiting domain transformation and deep learning for hand gesture recognition using a low-cost dataglove.

Hand gesture recognition is one of the most widely explored areas under the human-computer interaction domain. Although various modalities of hand gesture recognition have been explored in the last three decades, in recent years, due to the availability of hardware and deep learning algorithms, hand gesture recognition research has attained renewed momentum. In this paper, we evaluate the effectiveness of a low-cost dataglove for classifying hand gestures in the light of deep learning.

An investigation to study the effects of Tai Chi on human gait dynamics using classical machine learning.

Tai Chi has been proven effective in preventing falls in older adults, improving the joint function of knee osteoarthritis patients, and improving the balance of stroke survivors. However, the effect of Tai Chi on human gait dynamics is still less understood. Studies conducted in this domain only relied on statistical and clinical measurements on the time-series gait data.

Multivariate multiscale entropy: a tool for complexity analysis of multichannel data.

This work generalizes the recently introduced univariate multiscale entropy (MSE) analysis to the multivariate case. This is achieved by introducing multivariate sample entropy (MSampEn) in a rigorous way, in order to account for both within- and cross-channel dependencies in multiple data channels, and by evaluating it over multiple temporal scales. The multivariate MSE (MMSE) method is shown to provide an assessment of the underlying dynamical richness of multichannel observations, and more degrees of freedom in the analysis than standard MSE.

Multivariate multiscale entropy for brain consciousness analysis.

The recently introduced multiscale entropy (MSE) method accounts for long range correlations over multiple time scales and can therefore reveal the complexity of biological signals. The existing MSE algorithm deals with scalar time series whereas multivariate time series are common in experimental and biological systems. To that cause, in this paper the MSE method is extended to the multivariate case.
