ObjectiveaaThe combination of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), a non-pharmacological form of therapy for treating major depressive disorder (MDD), and electroencephalogram (EEG) is a valuable tool for ...

Artificial life uses biological knowledge and techniques to solve different engineering, management, control and computational problems. Natural systems teach us that very simple individual organisms can form systems ...

Machine learning (ML) approaches for medical decision making processes are valuable when both high classification accuracy and less feature requirements are satisfied. Artificial neural networks ...

Objective:Many applications such as biomedical signals require selecting a subset of the input features in order to represent the whole set of features. A feature selection algorithm has recently been proposed as a new ...

Feature selection is an important step in many pattern recognition systems aiming to overcome the so-called curse of dimensionality. In this study, an optimized classification method was tested in 147 patients with major ...

Water level control is a crucial step for steam generators (SG) which are widely used to control the temperature of nuclear power plants. The control process is therefore a challenging task to improve the performance ...

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a treatment procedure that uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain, and is associated with significant improvements in clinical symptoms of major ...

This study examined the prediction of dropouts through data mining approaches in an online program. The subject of the study was selected from a total of 189 students who registered to the online Information Technologies ...

Classification of psychiatric disorders is becoming one of the major focuses of research using artificial intelligence approach. The combination of feature selection and classification methods generates satisfactory ...

Schizo-obsessive disorder is characterized by the clinical syndrome in which comorbid obsessive–compulsive disorder accompanies schizophrenia. A substantial number of studies have investigated the neuropsychological and ...
