Early Detection of Depression
… that DTRs are more effective for depression detection than traditional representations such as Bag of Words (BOW) and representations based on neural word embeddings. In fact, we have obtained state-of-the-art results with Document Occurrence Representation (DOR) for depression detection …

Autism and misdiagnosis: is early detection always accurate?
… stereotyped patterns of behaviors and interests. Early detection and intervention is crucial for children diagnosed with autism. While current trends in research and detection are leaning toward earlier diagnosis of the disorder, limited research exists to support that earlier diagnoses are …

Pancreatic Cancer - Early Detection, Prognostic Factors, and Treatment
… Less than 20% of cases are diagnosed at an early stage that allows them to undergo potentially curative surgery. However, even for patients with a tumor that has been surgically removed, local and systemic recurrence is common and the median survival is only 17-23 months. This underscores …

Early-Detection of Diabetic Foot Ulceration using Thermal Images
… an overview of the author's research into the early detection of diabetic foot ulceration using infrared imaging. This project may contribute to better treatment and potentially help to avoid a significant amount of amputations and deaths. An experimental infrared system was developed and …

Early Detection of Treatment's Side Effects: A Sequential Approach
… an optimal sequential test that allows for the early detection of potential side effect(s). This test employs a rule to stop the vaccination process once the observed number of side effect incidents exceeds a certain (pre-determined) threshold. The optimality of the proposed sequential test is …

Triage-driven diagnosis for early detection of oesophageal cancer
In this thesis I present my work to advance the early detection of oesophageal adenocarcinoma by investigating translational aspects of a minimally invasive oesophageal cell sampling technology for the detection of Barrett oesophagus. Most oesophageal adenocarcinoma patients present with advanced …

Multi and Hyperspectral Imaging of Early Detection of Disease
… of systemic scleroderma, and enhancing cancer detection in the gastrointestinal tract during endoscopies. The nailfold capillaries are the smallest blood vessels in the body, and deformations in these capillaries are indicators of systemic scleroderma, a rheumatic disease. A hypothesis was …

Exploiting novel antibodies for the early detection of cardiac disease
… importance for specific cardiovascular disease detection. Panels of both monoclonal and recombinant antibodies were generated and fully characterised. This approach required a combination of high-throughput assay screening with „state-of-the-art‟ multiplexed surface-plasmon resonance-based …

Novel Low Coherence Interferometric Tools for Early Detection of Cancer
… diagnostic techniques have shown promise in early detection of colorectal and cervical cancer, potentially able to improve upon existing preventative screening techniques in terms of accuracy and detection time.</p><p>This dissertation is focused on optical methods based on low-coherence …

Explaining Machine Learning Models for Early Detection of Pregnancy Risk
… pregnant women with pregnancy risk factors early so they can receive proper care or preventative treatment. To detect these women, pregnant members are first detected, then they are checked for high risk diagnosis codes or fed into a risk prediction algorithm. Members predicted to be most at …

Anxiety in the Classroom Setting: Early Detection of Signs and Symptoms
… schools are an excellent environment to detect early signs and symptoms of anxiety. When available, school nurses are well positioned to provide primary and secondary prevention to students identified with signs and symptoms of anxiety.</p> <p>The aim of this project is to identify if increasing …
