These models are often criticized for their vulnerability to reproducibility issues. Here, we present the EthoWatcher-Open Source (EW-OS), with tools and procedures for the use of blind-to-condition categorical transcriptions that are simultaneous with tracking, for the assessment of HOs intra- and interobserver reliability during training and data collection, for producing video clips of samples of behavioral categories that are useful for observer training. The use of these tools can inform and optimize the performance of observers, thus favoring the reproducibility of the data obtained. Categorical and machine vision-derived outputs are presented in an open data format for increased interoperability with other applications, where behavioral categories are associated frame-by-frame with tracking, morphological and kinematic attributes of an animal's image. The center of mass (X and Y pixel coordinates), the animal's area in square millimeters, the length and width in millimeters, and the angle in degrees were recorded. It also assesses the variation in each morphological descriptor to produce kinematic descriptors. While the initial measurements are in pixels, they are later converted to millimeters using the scale calibrated by the user via the graphical user interfaces. This process enables the creation of databases suitable for machine learning processing and behavioral pharmacology studies. EW-OS is constructed for continued collaborative development, available through an open-source platform, to support initiatives toward the adoption of good scientific practices in behavioral analysis, including tools for evaluating the quality of the data that can alleviate problems associated with low reproducibility in the behavioral sciences.</p>","PeriodicalId":49840,"journal":{"name":"Medical & Biological Engineering & Computing","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142479179","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To explore the impact of the absence of joint movements on the performance of HMI in rehabilitation, a generic musculoskeletal model (MM) was employed in this study to evaluate and compare the performance of subjects completing a series of on-line tasks with the wrist and metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joints unconstrained and constrained. The performance of the generic MM has been demonstrated in previous studies. The electromyography (EMG) signals of four muscles were employed as inputs of the generic MM to realize the continuous movement decoding of wrist and MCP joints. Ten able-bodied subjects were recruited to perform the on-line tasks. The completion time, the number of overshoots, and the path efficiency of the tasks were taken as the indexes to quantify the subjects' performance. The muscle activation associated with the movement was analyzed. Across all tasks and subjects, the average values of the three indexes with the joints unconstrained were 7.7 s, 0.59, and 0.38, respectively, while those with the joints constrained were 17.86 s, 1.47, and 0.22, respectively. The results demonstrated that the subjects performed better with the wrist and MCP joints unconstrained than with those joints constrained in the on-line tasks, suggesting that the absence of joint movements can be a reason of the decreased performance of continuous movement decoding with HMIs.

Digital therapy is an important resource for individuals with PTSD who may not have access to traditional in-person therapy. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) are two evidence-based psychotherapies that have shown efficacy in treating PTSD.

Traditional methods like electrocardiograms or contact photoplethysmography require device attachment, causing discomfort, and ultra-short-term stress measurement research remains inadequate. This paper proposes a method for ultra-short-term stress monitoring using remote photoplethysmography (rPPG). Previous predictions of ultra-short-term stress have typically used pulse rate variability (PRV) features derived from time-segmented heart rate data. However, PRV varies at the same stress levels depending on heart rates, necessitating a new method to account for these differences. This study addressed this by segmenting rPPG data based on normal-to-normal intervals (NNIs), converted from peak-to-peak intervals, to predict ultra-short-term stress indices. We used NNI counts corresponding to average durations of 10, 20, and 30 s (13, 26, and 39 NNIs) to extract PRV features, predicting the Baevsky stress index through regressors. The Extra Trees Regressor achieved R<sup>2</sup> scores of 0.6699 for 13 NNIs, 0.8751 for 26 NNIs, and 0.9358 for 39 NNIs, surpassing the time-segmented approach, which yielded 0.4162, 0.6528, and 0.7943 for 10, 20, and 30-s intervals, respectively. These findings demonstrate that using NNI counts for ultra-short-term stress prediction improves accuracy by accounting for individual bio-signal variations.</p>","PeriodicalId":49840,"journal":{"name":"Medical & Biological Engineering & Computing","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142401794","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although automatic segmentation of OARs has been extensively studied, it remains challenging due to the varying sizes and shapes of organs, as well as the low contrast between the target and background. This paper proposes a cascaded FAS-UNet+ framework, which integrates convolutional neural networks and nonlinear multi-grid theory to solve a modified Mumford-shah model for segmenting OARs. This framework is equipped with an enhanced iteration block, a coarse-to-fine multiscale architecture, an iterative optimization strategy, and a model ensemble technique. The enhanced iteration block aims to extract multiscale features, while the cascade module is used to refine coarse segmentation predictions. The iterative optimization strategy improves the network parameters to avoid unfavorable local minima. An efficient data augmentation method is also developed to train the network, which significantly improves its performance. During the prediction stage, a weighted ensemble technique combines predictions from multiple models to refine the final segmentation. The proposed cascaded FAS-UNet+ framework was evaluated on the SegTHOR dataset, and the results demonstrate significant improvements in Dice score and Hausdorff Distance (HD). The Dice scores were 95.22%, 95.68%, and HD values were 0.1024, and 0.1194 for the segmentations of the aorta and heart in the official unlabeled dataset, respectively.
