In this paper, the Bayesian framework is used for the analysis of functional MRI (fMRI) data. Two algorithms are proposed to deal with the nonstationarity of the noise. The first algorithm is based on the temporal analysis of the data, while the second algorithm is based on the spatiotemporal analysis. Both algorithms estimate the variance of the noise across the images and the voxels. The first algorithm is based on the generalized linear model (GLM), while the second algorithm is based on a spatiotemporal version of it. In the GLM, an extended design matrix is used to deal with the presence of the drift in the fMRI time series. To estimate the regression parameters of the GLM as well as the variance components of the noise, the variational Bayesian (VB) methodology is employed. The use of the VB methodology results in an iterative algorithm, where the estimation of the regression coefficients and the estimation of variance components of the noise, across images and voxels, are interchanged in an elegant and fully automated way. The performance of the proposed algorithms (under the assumption of different noise models) is compared with the weighted least-squares (WLSs) method. Results using simulated and real data indicate the superiority of the proposed approach compared to the WLS method, thus taking into account the complex noise structure of the fMRI time series.

Unprecedented penetration of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms has brought about rapid innovations in electronic hardware, including new memory devices. Nonvolatile memory (NVM) devices offer one such attractive alternative with ∼2× density and data retention after powering off. Compute-in-memory (CIM) architectures further improve energy efficiency by fusing the computation operations with AI model storage.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs), membrane-encapsulated nanoparticles shed from all cells, are tightly involved in critical cellular functions. Moreover, EVs have recently emerged as exciting therapeutic modalities, delivery vectors, and biomarker sources. However, EVs are difficult to characterize, because they are typically small and heterogeneous in size, origin, and molecular content.

Background: Non-invasive, continuous blood pressure monitoring technologies require additional validation beyond standard cuff-based methods. This study evaluates a non-invasive, multiparametric wearable cuffless blood pressure (BP) diagnostic monitor across all hypertension classes with diverse subjects.
Methods: A prospective, multicenter study assessed Nanowear's SimpleSense-BP performance, including induced and natural BP changes, significant BP variations (Systolic BP (SBP) ≥ ± 15 mm Hg and Diastolic BP (DBP) ≥ ± 10 mm Hg), and reference input value validity over 4 weeks.

Objective: To develop an automatic segmentation model to delineate the adnexal masses and construct a machine learning model to differentiate between low malignant risk and intermediate-high malignant risk of adnexal masses based on ovarian-adnexal reporting and data system (O-RADS).
Methods: A total of 663 ultrasound images of adnexal mass were collected and divided into two sets according to experienced radiologists: a low malignant risk set (n = 446) and an intermediate-high malignant risk set (n = 217). Deep learning segmentation models were trained and selected to automatically segment adnexal masses.

Background: The pathophysiology of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and diabetes mellitus (DM) is still unknown, despite clinical reports linking the two conditions. After investigating potential roles for DM-related genes in the pathophysiology of OSA, our goal is to investigate the molecular significance of the condition. Machine learning is a useful approach to understanding complex gene expression data to find biomarkers for the diagnosis of OSA.
