  Dong, Nanqing; Kampffmeyer, Michael C.; Liang, Xiaodan; Wang, Zeya; Dai, Wei; Xing, Eric P. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-09-26)

  The cardiothoracic ratio (CTR), a clinical metric of heart size in chest X-rays (CXRs), is a key indicator of cardiomegaly. Manual measurement of CTR is time-consuming and can be affected by human subjectivity, making it desirable to design computer-aided systems that assist clinicians in the diagnosis process. Automatic CTR estimation through chest organ segmentation, however, requires large amounts ...

  Time Series Kernel Similarities for Predicting Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation from ECGs 

  Bianchi, Filippo Maria; Livi, Lorenzo; Ferrante, Alberto; Milosevic, Jelena; Miroslaw, Malek (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2018)

  We tackle the problem of classifying Electrocardiography (ECG) signals with the aim of predicting the onset of Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation (PAF). Atrial fibrillation is the most common type of arrhythmia, but in many cases PAF episodes are asymptomatic. Therefore, in order to help diagnosing PAF, it is important to design procedures for detecting and, more importantly, predicting PAF episodes. ...

  Bøthun, Øyvind; Zoglowek, Herbert Gottfried (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-12-20)

  The primary aim of the study was to measure and compare daily physical activity among young people in the most northern part of Europe where the ethnic minority, the Saami people. The research population was 6-, 9- and 15-year old children in Saami majority municipalities (N=180). In this article, we present and discuss the results of a cross-sectional study of physical activity among children of ...

  Changes in sea ice cover and ice sheet extent at the Yermak Plateau during the last 160 ka - Reconstructions from biomarker records 

  Kremer, A; Stein, R; Fahl, K.; Ji, Z; Yang, Z; Wiers, Steffen; Matthiessen, J; Forwick, Matthias; Löwemark, Ludvig; O'Regan, M; Chen, J; Snowball, Ian (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-02-15)

  The Yermak Plateau is located north of Svalbard at the entrance to the Arctic Ocean, i.e. in an area highly sensitive to climate change. A multi proxy approach was carried out on Core PS92/039-2 to study glacial-interglacial environmental changes at the northern Barents Sea margin during the last 160 ka. The main emphasis was on the reconstruction of sea ice cover, based on the sea ice proxy ...
