Using additional training data is known to improve the results, especially for medical image 3D segmentation where there is a lack of training material and the model needs to generalize well from few available data.
Oral capillaroscopy is a critical and non-invasive technique used to evaluate microcirculation. Its ability to observe small vessels in vivo has generated significant interest in the field. Capillaroscopy serves as an essential tool for diagnosing and prognosing various pathologies, with anatomic–pathological lesions playing a crucial role in their progression.
When interacting with fictional environments, the users' sense of immersion can be broken when characters act in mechanical and predictable ways.
The analysis of vocal samples from patients with Parkinson's disease (PDP) can be relevant in supporting early diagnosis and disease monitoring.
Accurate instance segmentation of teeth in panoramic dental X-rays is a challenging task due to variations in tooth morphology and overlapping regions. In this study, we propose a new algorithm, for instance, segmentation of the different teeth in panoramic dental X-rays.
Proponiamo un sistema basato su telecamera per fornire una valutazione oggettiva e senza contatto del dolore nei bambini.
This paper deals with the automatic detection of Myotonia from a task based on the sudden opening of the hand. Data have been gathered from 44 subjects, divided into 17 controls and 27 myotonic patients, by measuring a 2-point articulation of each finger thanks to a calibrated sensory glove equipped with a Resistive Flex Sensor (RFS).
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is one of the most widespread neurodegenerative diseases worldwide, affected by a number of alterations, among which speech impairments that, interestingly, manifests up to 10 years before other major evidences (e.g. motor impairments).
The preliminary diagnosis and evaluation of the presence and/or severity of Parkinson’s disease is crucial in controlling the progress of the disease.
