Automatic Aortic Aneurysm Detection System through Deep-Learning
An aortic aneurysm is a bulge that occurs in the aorta wall, which carries blood from the heart to the rest of the body. In 2019, aortic aneurysms caused more than 9,000 deaths, with about 60% affecting men. Smoking accounts for the condition's leading risk factor and leads to 75% of all aortic aneurysms. Unfortunately, current diagnostic tools...

Connectome-Inspired Adversarial Robustness in Deep Neural Networks
Deep neural networks (DNNs) are artificial neural networks (ANN) and a key component of artificial intelligence (AI) applications. They are designed to function similarly to the human brain and trained using large labeled data sets. There is a plethora of applications for DNNs, including but not limited to driverless cars, security, facial/voice recognition,...

Early Prediction of Students’ Performance via Machine Learning
The vast majority of U.S. undergraduate students are unable to graduate in four years. Those who graduate tend to lack diplomas in high demand majors: science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). America needs more science, engineering and technical graduates to enter the workforce, pay taxes, contribute to the economy, and repay their student...

VR-based training modules for traffic incident management (TIM) responders
Seat belt, infant care seat, air bag, and drunk driving laws, as well as enhanced vehicle safety features have had a positive impact on decreasing motor-vehicle fatalities. However, in 2019 approximately 38,800 people lost their lives in the US as a result of automobile crashes and globally 1.35 million individuals were killed in 2018. TIM centers...

A New Risk Management Tool for Medical Imaging Software
Deep neural networks (DNNs) help radiologists locate, characterize, and segment tumors. These software tools augment imagery in regions that are otherwise obscured by signal noise or streaks. DNNs reduce imaging session times and thereby reduce radiation exposure. On the other hand, “black box” DNNs defy clinical scrutiny, make patient consultations...

A Wide-Open 3-Legged Parallel Robot to Improve Musculoskeletal Surgeries
BackgroundMusculoskeletal disorders are second most common cause of disability and globally afflict more than 100 million people per year. Current treatments, although effective, often result in unwanted side effects including X-ray exposure, nonunion of bone and poor healing. Robotic manipulation of bone to improve surgical accuracy is a newly emerging...
