Computational methods applied to syphilis: where are we, and where are we going?
Albuquerque, Gabriela; Fernandes, Felipe; Barbalho, Ingridy M. P.; Barros, Daniele M. S.; Morais, Philippi S. G.; Morais, Antônio H. F.Syphilis is an infectious disease that can be diagnosed and treated cheaply. Despite being a curable condition, the syphilis rate is increasing worldwide. In this sense, computational methods can analyze data and assist managers in formulating new public policies for preventing and controlling sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Computational techniques can integrate knowledge from experiences and, through ...
Osteoporosis screening using machine learning and electromagnetic waves
Albuquerque, Gabriela A.; Carvalho, Dionísio D. A.; Cruz, Agnaldo S.; Santos, João P. Q.; Machado, Guilherme M.; Gendriz, Ignácio S.Osteoporosis is a disease characterized by impairment of bone microarchitecture that causes high socioeconomic impacts in the world because of fractures and hospitalizations. Although dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the gold standard for diagnosing the disease, access to DXA in developing countries is still limited due to its high cost, being present only in specialized hospitals. In this paper, we an...
