Journal Article
PODDER, P., RANI DAS, S., MONDAL, M.R.H., BHARATI, S., MALIHA, A., HASAN, M.J. and PILTAN, F. 2023. LDDNet: a deep learning framework for the diagnosis of infectious lung diseases. Sensors [online], 23(1), article 480. Available from: https://doi.org/10.3390/s23010480

This paper proposes a new deep learning (DL) framework for the analysis of lung diseases, including COVID-19 and pneumonia, from chest CT scans and X-ray (CXR) images. This framework is termed optimized DenseNet201 for lung diseases (LDDNet). The pro... Read More about LDDNet: a deep learning framework for the diagnosis of infectious lung diseases..

Where does stress happen? Ecological momentary assessment of daily stressors using a mobile phone app. (2022)
Presentation / Conference
YAO, X., JORDAN, E., NELSON, E., STAVRIANAKIS, K., HUANG, T.-Y. and MORAN, C. 2022. Where does stress happen? Ecological momentary assessment of daily stressors using a mobile phone app. Presented at the 2022 American Public Health Association annual meeting (APHA 2022), 6-9 November 2022, Boston, USA.

Despite the importance of daily stress to individuals' health and wellbeing, few studies have explored where stress happens in real time. As such, stress interventions rarely account for the environment in which stress occurs. We used ecological mome... Read More about Where does stress happen?

Automated analysis of sleep study parameters using signal processing and artificial intelligence. (2022)
Journal Article
SOHAIB, M., GHAFFAR, A., SHIN, J., HASAN. M.J. and SULEMAN, M.T. 2022. Automated analysis of sleep study parameters using signal processing and artificial intelligence. International journal of environmental research and public health [online], 19(20), article number 13256. Available from: https://doi.org/10.3390/ijerph192013256

An automated sleep stage categorization can readily face noise-contaminated EEG recordings, just as other signal processing applications. Therefore, the denoising of the contaminated signals is inevitable to ensure a reliable analysis of the EEG sign...
