One interesting general problem is filtering information and making relevant information more conspicuous to users in Internet websites. Previously, collaborative filtering techniques have been successfully applied in recommender systems for personalizing Internet shopping and movie portals. Current work uses network structures - inferred from patient interactions - to enhance patient-similarity analysis, for predicting the top-N threads in online communities. Using network structure properties unique to healthcare social networks, experimental results based on the Euclidean distance, Pearson correlation and Tanimoto similarity, confirm that community structure properties can enhance recommendations. The results are comparable to other collaborative filtering methods proposed in the literature. These findings have implications for designing personalized health-related social media.","PeriodicalId":177948,"journal":{"name":"IEEE-EMBS International Conference on Biomedical and Health Informatics (BHI)","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127750438","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Aspiration due to dysphagia is a major health risk that could cause pneumonia, and even death. As a result, monitoring and managing dysphagia is of utmost importance. This study investigates the development of a smartphone-based device and a feasible real-time swallowing sound processing algorithm for the automatic screening for swallowing ability. The videofluoroscopic swallow study (VFSS), which is considered the gold standard for the diagnosis of dysphagia, is not widely available, expensive and causes exposure to radiation. The screening tests used for dysphagia need to be carried out by trained staff and the evaluations are often non-quantifiable. The Swallowscope we developed is a wearable device based on mobile health, and uses the swallowing sound to quantitatively evaluate swallowing ability. As swallowing sound can be captured continuously and during activities of daily life with minimal intervention, it is an ideal approach to monitor swallowing activities, and its continuous monitoring has a better probability of capturing aspirations and risky swallow patterns. This paper describes the real-time smartphone based algorithm and the application we developed to monitor swallowing activities and evaluates the recognition accuracy by comparing them with VFSS evidence.","PeriodicalId":177948,"journal":{"name":"IEEE-EMBS International Conference on Biomedical and Health Informatics (BHI)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127785325","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A variational Bayesian approach is applied in order to infer parameters of the models, and the best model was selected based on the computed log-evidence for each prandial event. The model with a linear structure represents most of the events, while the nonlinear terms need to be included more frequently for Type II diabetic patients. This indicates different physiological mechanisms of glucose absorption for different groups. The deterministic parameters and intensities of stochastic components are compared by groups using the ANOVA test, and the results show significant differences between the groups. This model can potentially be used for long term prediction of the glucose concentration response to external stimuli.","PeriodicalId":177948,"journal":{"name":"IEEE-EMBS International Conference on Biomedical and Health Informatics (BHI)","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128112145","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Physiological parameters are considered as critical information to assess health condition and the type of possible illness of patients. In this work, vital signs are collected using wireless medical devices and fed to a computerised decision support system consist of a diagnostic model. The proposed vital signs monitoring system is able to help clinicians by illustrating the trace of critical physiological parameters, generating early warning/alerts and indicating any significant changes to the data. Moreover, it can assist patients to monitor their health status and communicate their concerns with the healthcare providers. The system was validated with different set of collected data from 20 hospitalised older adults and achieved an accuracy of 95.83%, sensitivity of 100%, specificity of 93.15%, and predictability of 90.38% in compare with a clinician assessment for tachycardia, hypertension, hypotension, hypoxemia and hypothermia.","PeriodicalId":177948,"journal":{"name":"IEEE-EMBS International Conference on Biomedical and Health Informatics (BHI)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133689929","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This has also become essential, mainly because of the lack of an extensive dataset of real vessel geometries that covers an adequate number of cases (e.g. variable amplitude of stenosis for the same vessel). In this paper, we propose a method for creating realistic artificial vessel geometry. The centerline is constructed using PseudoRandom Noise Generator (PRNG) and 3d spline interpolation and the artificial wall using a variation of the 2d Perlin Noise. The resulted geometry indicates that this method achieves realistic representations of vessel walls with user defined parameters.","PeriodicalId":177948,"journal":{"name":"IEEE-EMBS International Conference on Biomedical and Health Informatics (BHI)","volume":"106 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115542617","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Several methods were proposed for the automatic estimation of the IMT on ultrasound carotid images, in order to obtain accurate, objective and repetitive values. One of the most used techniques for image segmentation is the snake, often requiring a preliminary manual phase of parameter tuning and profile initialization. In this study we present a new segmentation method for automatic detection of lumen-intima (LI) and media-adventitia (MA) interfaces. This technique is based on the simultaneously evolution of the two snakes under the action of a Fuzzy Inference System (FIS). We tested our method for images both with normal carotid wall and with plaques. The performances of the Fuzzy-Snake system result better than the classical snake implementation, showing no trends between errors and IMT values. In plaqued vessels, the FIS driven snake improves the detection of the LI compared to classical snakes.","PeriodicalId":177948,"journal":{"name":"IEEE-EMBS International Conference on Biomedical and Health Informatics (BHI)","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124591266","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
