With an expectation of an increased number of revision surgeries and patients receiving orthopedic implants in the coming years, the focus of joint replacement research needs to be on improving the mechanical properties ...
Constructing an Intelligent Model Based on Support Vector Regression to Simulate the Solubility of Drugs in Polymeric Media
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
This study constructs a machine learning method to simultaneously analyze the thermodynamic behavior of many polymer-drug systems. The solubility temperature of Acetaminophen, Celecoxib, Chloramphenicol, D-Mannitol, ...
A comprehensive review of COVID-19 detection techniques: From laboratory systems to wearable devices
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article Review)
Screening of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) among symptomatic and asymptomatic patients offers unique opportunities for curtailing the transmission of novel coronavirus disease 2019, commonly ...
PPG2ABP: Translating Photoplethysmogram (PPG) Signals to Arterial Blood Pressure (ABP) Waveforms
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Cardiovascular diseases are one of the most severe causes of mortality, annually taking a heavy toll on lives worldwide. Continuous monitoring of blood pressure seems to be the most viable option, but this demands an ...
Machine Learning-Based Respiration Rate and Blood Oxygen Saturation Estimation Using Photoplethysmogram Signals
(
MDPI
, 2023 , Article)
The continuous monitoring of respiratory rate (RR) and oxygen saturation (SpO2) is crucial for patients with cardiac, pulmonary, and surgical conditions. RR and SpO2 are used to assess the effectiveness of lung medications ...
Application of Metastructures for Targeted Low-Frequency Vibration Suppression in Plates
(2022 , Software)
In this paper, we present an approach that combines finite element analysis and genetic algorithms to find the optimal configuration of local resonators created in the host structure to suppress their vibration in a target ...
A Novel Machine Learning Approach for Severity Classification of Diabetic Foot Complications Using Thermogram Images
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the most prevalent diseases in the world, and is correlated to a high index of mortality. One of its major complications is diabetic foot, leading to plantar ulcers, amputation, and death. ...
Design and Implementation of a Smart Insole System to Measure Plantar Pressure and Temperature
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
An intelligent insole system may monitor the individual's foot pressure and temperature in real-time from the comfort of their home, which can help capture foot problems in their earliest stages. Constant monitoring for ...
A Shallow U-Net Architecture for Reliably Predicting Blood Pressure (BP) from Photoplethysmogram (PPG) and Electrocardiogram (ECG) Signals
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Cardiovascular diseases are the most common causes of death around the world. To detect and treat heart-related diseases, continuous blood pressure (BP) monitoring along with many other parameters are required. Several ...
Estimating the Dissolution of Anticancer Drugs in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide with a Stacked Machine Learning Model
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Synthesizing micro-/nano-sized pharmaceutical compounds with an appropriate size distribution is a method often followed to enhance drug delivery and reduce side effects. Supercritical CO2 (carbon dioxide) is a well-known ...
