Magnetic resonance image (MRI) reconstruction is a severely ill-posed linear inverse task demanding time and resource intensive computations that can substantially trade off {\it accuracy} for {\it speed} in real-time imaging. In addition, state-of-the-art compressed sensing (CS) analytics are not cognizant of the imag…
Human brain development is rapid during infancy and early childhood. Many disease processes impair this development. Therefore, brain developmental age estimation (BDAE) is essential for all diseases affecting cognitive development. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of infants shows brain growth and morphologic pa…
Pediatric obstructive sleep apnea affects an estimated 1-5% of elementary-school aged children and can lead to other detrimental health problems. Swift diagnosis and treatment are critical to a child's growth and development, but the variability of symptoms and the complexity of the available data make this a challenge…
Bayesian model estimates ACT impact on pediatric AML survival.
Kidney function evaluation using dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) images could help in diagnosis and treatment of kidney diseases of children. Automatic segmentation of renal parenchyma is an important step in this process. In this paper, we propose a time and memory efficient fully automated segmentation method…
Objective: Predict patient-specific vitals deemed medically acceptable for discharge from a pediatric intensive care unit (ICU). Design: The means of each patient's hr, sbp and dbp measurements between their medical and physical discharge from the ICU were computed as a proxy for their physiologically acceptable state …
Objective: Predict individual septic children's personalized physiologic responses to vasoactive titrations by training a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) using EMR data. Materials and Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed EMR of patients admitted to a pediatric ICU from 2009 to 2017. Data included charted time se…
We demonstrate a simple strategy to cope with missing data in sequential inputs, addressing the task of multilabel classification of diagnoses given clinical time series. Collected from the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) at Children's Hospital Los Angeles, our data consists of multivariate time series of observat…
Physical activity levels are an important predictor of cardiovascular health and increasingly being measured by sensors, like accelerometers. Accelerometers produce rich multivariate data that can inform important clinical decisions related to individual patients and public health. The CHAMPION study, a study of youth …
There is growing interest in applying machine learning methods to Electronic Medical Records (EMR). Across different institutions, however, EMR quality can vary widely. This work investigated the impact of this disparity on the performance of three advanced machine learning algorithms: logistic regression, multilayer p…

To study radiotherapy-related adverse effects, detailed dose information (3D distribution) is needed for accurate dose-effect modeling. For childhood cancer survivors who underwent radiotherapy in the pre-CT era, only 2D radiographs were acquired, thus 3D dose distributions must be reconstructed from limited informatio…
