Topics in Cognitive Rehabilitation in the TBI Post-Hospital Phase
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) refers to nondegenerative, noncongenital damage to the brain from an external mechanical force, which can lead to permanent or temporary impairment of cognitive, physical, and psychosocial functions, with an associated diminished or altered state of consciousness. Despite this broad definition, it is estimated that more than 1.500.000 people suffer TBI annually in US, with 20% afflicted with moderate or severe forms. Additionally, a high percentage of these patients are unable to return to their daily routine (approximately 50%). In this context, both motor and cognitive rehabilitation are extremely important for these individuals. The aim of cognitive and motor ...
Knowledge-Based Intelligent Information and Engineering Systems
The three volume set LNAI 5177, LNAI 5178, and LNAI 5179, constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Knowledge-Based Intelligent Information and Engineering Systems, KES 2008, held in Zagreb, Croatia, in September 2008. The 316 revised papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected. The papers present a wealth of original research results from the field of intelligent information processing in the broadest sense; topics covered in the second volume are artificial intelligence driven engineering design optimization; biomedical informatics: intelligent information management from nanomedicine to public health; communicative intelligence; computational i...
Women in Neurotrauma 2023
We are delighted to present the inaugural Frontiers in Neurology "Women in Neurotrauma" series of article collections. At present, less than 30% of researchers worldwide are women. Long-standing biases and gender stereotypes are discouraging girls and women away from science-related fields, and STEM research in particular. Science and gender equality are, however, essential to ensure sustainable development as highlighted by UNESCO. In order to change traditional mindsets, gender equality must be promoted, stereotypes defeated, and girls and women should be encouraged to pursue STEM careers. Therefore, Frontiers in Neurology is proud to offer this platform to promote the work of women scientists, across all fields of Neurotrauma.
Cutting-edge Technologies in Biological Sensing and Analysis
Advanced technologies have been transforming the ways we carry out biological studies as well as deliver healthcare. While micro- and nano-fabrication have provided miniaturized sensors and systems with better sensitivity and selectivity,; innovations in flexible electronics, biomaterials and telecommunications have helped in enabling novel biomedical devices, reducing cost, bringing convenience and establishing mobile-health (m-Health), and personalized- and tele-medicine. Further, the recent rise of the internet of things (IoTs) and machine learning-based approaches has paved the avenue for those biomedical systems to become popular and widely accepted by our society. In this context, we edit this book aiming to cover a broad field of novel technologies used in biological assessment and analysis for humans, animal models and in vitro platforms, in both health monitoring and biological studies. Technical topics discussed in the book include: Biosensing systems and biomedical techniques Imaging techniques and systems Biosignal analysis Animal models used in biological research
The Digitalization of Neurology
Over the past 20 years Medicine in general, and Neurology in specific, has become increasingly digitized. Increasingly, Neurology has made a transition from qualitative to quantitative methods. The conversion of neurological data from free text to a computable format has made the application of digital tools to neurological diagnosis and prognosis a reality. This Research Topic in Frontiers in Digital Health will highlight how the digitization of data has revolutionized Neurology. Themes covered will include natural language processing, ontologies, phenotyping, big data, bio-banks, machine learning, graph theory, network analysis, computational models, electronic health records, telemetry, and teleneurology.
Handbook of Infection and Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer’s disease is one of the biggest emerging public health problems in the world. Although the last four decades have yielded important insights into the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease, its cause is still unclear, and if it is not discovered the world will face an unprecedented healthcare problem by the middle of this century. In recent years, evidence of the microbial origin of various chronic inflammatory disorders – including several neurodegenerative, neuropsychiatric and other systemic disorders – has been steadily growing. Accumulating new and historic observations are providing evidence of an association between Alzheimer’s disease and certain infectious agents, a...
Neurophysiology in Alzheimer's Disease and Dementia
Alzheimer's disease (AD) and dementia are the most common neurodegenerative disorder. Since the number of individuals with AD and dementia is expected to increase considerably in the near future, reliable treatment and diagnosis are critical. EEG and neurophysiological technique could be used as a cost-effective screening tool for early detection and diagnosis in the Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) stage. The aim in neurophysiology research is to develop signal processing methods that improve the specificity for diagnosing dementia; we wish to discover signal features that not only significantly differ in AD patients, but also allow us to reliably separate AD patients and control subjects. T...
Paraconsistent Intelligent-Based Systems
This book presents some of the latest applications of new theories based on the concept of paraconsistency and correlated topics in informatics, such as pattern recognition (bioinformatics), robotics, decision-making themes, and sample size. Each chapter is self-contained, and an introductory chapter covering the logic theoretical basis is also included. The aim of the text is twofold: to serve as an introductory text on the theories and applications of new logic, and as a textbook for undergraduate or graduate-level courses in AI. Today AI frequently has to cope with problems of vagueness, incomplete and conflicting (inconsistent) information. One of the most notable formal theories for addressing them is paraconsistent (paracomplete and non-alethic) logic.
Proceedings of International Conference on Deep Learning, Computing and Intelligence
This book gathers selected papers presented at the International Conference on Deep Learning, Computing and Intelligence (ICDCI 2021), organized by Department of Information Technology, SRM Institute of Science and Technology, Chennai, India, during January 7–8, 2021. The conference is sponsored by Scheme for Promotion of Academic and Research Collaboration (SPARC) in association with University of California, UC Davis and SRM Institute of Science and Technology. The book presents original research in the field of deep learning algorithms and medical imaging systems, focusing to address issues and developments in recent approaches, algorithms, mechanisms, and developments in medical imaging.
