We present a new neural model which extends the classical competitive learning (CL) by performing a Probabilistic Principal Components Analysis (PPCA) at each neuron. The model also has the ability to learn the number of basis vectors required to represent the principal directions of each cluster, so it overcomes a drawback of most local PCA models, where the dimensionality of a cluster must be fixed a priori. Experimental results are presented to show the performance of the network with multispectral image data.

Background: Studies suggest that approximately 60 to 70 percent of the variability observed in cognitive abilities during aging can be attributed to genetic factors. Therefore, investigating the longitudinal multiomics changes associated with alterations in cognitive measures, such as the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score, is of utmost importance.
Method: Longitudinal changes in gene and protein expression related to MMSE scores were examined in the Cameron County Hispanic Cohort (CCHC), an extensively phenotyped, randomly-recruited, cohort of Mexican Americans residing at the US-Mexico border.

Decoding states of consciousness from brain activity is a central challenge in neuroscience. Dynamic functional connectivity (dFC) allows the study of short-term temporal changes in functional connectivity (FC) between distributed brain areas. By clustering dFC matrices from resting-state fMRI, we previously described "brain patterns" that underlie different functional configurations of the brain at rest.

Unscheduled treatment interruptions may lead to reduced quality of care in radiation therapy (RT). Identifying the RT prescription dose effects on the outcome of treatment interruptions, mediated through doses distributed into different organs at risk (OARs), can inform future treatment planning. The radiation exposure to OARs can be summarized by a matrix of dose-volume histograms (DVH) for each patient.

Missing data in electronic health records (EHRs) presents significant challenges in medical studies. Many methods have been proposed, but uncertainty exists regarding the current state of missing data addressing methods applied for EHR and which strategy performs better within specific contexts. All studies referencing EHR and missing data methods published from their inception until 2024 March 30 were searched via the MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Digital Bibliography and Library Project databases.
