Automated Diagnosis of Intestinal Parasites: A new hybrid approach and its benefits [PDF]
Computers in Biology and Medicine, Volume 123, August 2020, 103917, 2021 Intestinal parasites are responsible for several diseases in human beings. In order to eliminate the error-prone visual analysis of optical microscopy slides, we have investigated automated, fast, and low-cost systems for the diagnosis of human intestinal parasites.

Intestinal Parasites Classification Using Deep Belief Networks [PDF]
, 2021 Currently, approximately $4$ billion people are infected by intestinal parasites worldwide. Diseases caused by such infections constitute a public health problem in most tropical countries, leading to physical and mental disorders, and even death to children and immunodeficient individuals.

Detection of Bleeding in Wireless Capsule Endoscopy Images Using Range Ratio Color [PDF]
International journal of Multimedia & Its Applications 2.2 (2010)
1-10, 2010 Wireless Capsule Endoscopy (WCE) is device to detect abnormalities in colon,esophagus,small intestinal and stomach, to distinguish bleeding in WCE images from non bleeding is a hard job by human reviewing and very time consuming. Consequently, automation for classifying bleeding frames not only will expedite the process but will reduce the burden on ...

Tipping Elements in the Human Intestinal Ecosystem [PDF]
, 2014 Recent studies show that the microbial communities inhabiting the human intestine can have profound impact on our well-being and health. However, we have limited understanding of the mechanisms that control this complex ecosystem. Based on a deep phylogenetic analysis of the intestinal microbiota in a thousand western adults we identified groups of ...

Olive oil by-product as functional ingredient in bakery products [PDF]
Food Research International, 131, 108940 (2020), 2020 By-products represent a major disposal problem for the food industry, but they are also promising sources of bioactive compounds. Olive pomace, one of the main by-products of olive oil production, is a potential low-cost, phenol-rich ingredient for the formulation of functional food.

Large Intestine 3D Shape Refinement Using Point Diffusion Models for Digital Phantom Generation [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Accurate 3D modeling of human organs plays a crucial role in building computational phantoms for virtual imaging trials. However, generating anatomically plausible reconstructions of organ surfaces from computed tomography scans remains challenging for many structures in the human body. This challenge is particularly evident when dealing with the large

Biotransformation and biological impact of graphene and graphene oxide during simulated oral ingestion [PDF]
Small, Volume 14, Issue 24, June 14, 2018. 1800227, 2019 Graphene is an innovative nanomaterial, made of two-dimensional honeycomb-like carbon lattice, with potential in many different applications. Studying the behaviour of graphene-related materials (GRMs) in biological systems is, therefore, crucial to assess possible side effects. In this work is studied the biotransformation and biological impact of few-

Asymmetric Fluid Flow in Helical Pipes Inspired by Shark Intestines [PDF]
Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 121 (40) e2406481121 (2024)Unlike human intestines, which are long, hollow tubes, the intestines of sharks and rays contain interior helical structures surrounding a cylindrical hole. One function of these structures may be to create asymmetric flow, favoring passage of fluid down the digestive tract, from anterior to posterior.

Semi-Automatic Data Annotation guided by Feature Space Projection [PDF]
, 2020 Data annotation using visual inspection (supervision) of each training sample can be laborious. Interactive solutions alleviate this by helping experts propagate labels from a few supervised samples to unlabeled ones based solely on the visual analysis of their feature space projection (with no further sample supervision).

Visualizing intestines for diagnostic assistance of ileus based on intestinal region segmentation from 3D CT images [PDF]
SPIE Medical Imaging 2020, 11314-109, 2020 This paper presents a visualization method of intestine (the small and large intestines) regions and their stenosed parts caused by ileus from CT volumes. Since it is difficult for non-expert clinicians to find stenosed parts, the intestine and its stenosed parts should be visualized intuitively.
