A low-cost, robust, and simple mechanism to measure hemoglobin would play a critical role in the modern health infrastructure. Consistent sample acquisition has been a long-standing technical hurdle for photometer-based portable hemoglobin detectors which rely on micro cuvettes and dry chemistry. Any particulates (e.g.…
Objective: Anemia is a frequent comorbidity in hemodialysis patients that can be successfully treated by administering erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs). ESAs dosing is currently based on clinical protocols that often do not account for the high inter- and intra-individual variability in the patient's response. …
Volunteer labor can temporarily yield lower benefits to charities than its costs. In such instances, organizations may wish to defer volunteer donations to a later date. Exploiting a discontinuity in blood donations' eligibility criteria, we show that deferring donors reduces their future volunteerism. In our setting, …
The application of existing methods for constructing optimal dynamic treatment regimes is limited to cases where investigators are interested in optimizing a utility function over a fixed period of time (finite horizon). In this manuscript, we develop an inferential procedure based on temporal difference residuals for …
Diffuse optical tomography (DOT) has been investigated as an alternative imaging modality for breast cancer detection thanks to its excellent contrast to hemoglobin oxidization level. However, due to the complicated non-linear photon scattering physics and ill-posedness, the conventional reconstruction algorithms are s…
New method estimates optimal dose intervals for personalized treatment.
Model predicts HU response for sickle cell patients.
The paper proposes a method to assess surrogate heterogeneity in non-randomized data.
Brain signal variability in the measurements obtained from different subjects during different sessions significantly deteriorates the accuracy of most brain-computer interface (BCI) systems. Moreover these variabilities, also known as inter-subject or inter-session variabilities, require lengthy calibration sessions b…
New framework predicts 5-year glucose values with missing data.
Neural network training entails heavy computation with obvious bottlenecks. The Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA) programming model allows us to accelerate computation by passing the processing workload from the CPU to the graphics processing unit (GPU). In this paper, we leveraged the power of Nvidia GPUs to …
