Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a genetic heart disease affecting approximately 1 in 500 people and is the leading cause of sudden cardiac death in young athletes. Current diagnostic methods -- c…
Community literacy programs supporting young newcomer children in Canada face limited staffing and scarce one-to-one time, which constrains personalized English and cultural learning support. This pap…
Studying early speech development at scale requires automatic tools, yet automatic phoneme recognition, especially for young children, remains largely unsolved. Building on decades of data collection,…
A general model is formulated for elasto-plastic materials undergoing linear kinematic hardening to describe microstructure evolution associated with phase transformations. Using infinitesimal strain …
Background and Objective: To assess the feasibility and accuracy of reconstructing time-resolved, three-dimensional, subject-specific aortic geometries from a limited number of standard cine 2D magnet…
This study centers around the design and implementation of the Maya Robot, a portable elephant-shaped social robot, intended to engage with children undergoing cancer treatment. Initial efforts were d…
This paper presents the web-based platform Machine Learning with Bricks and an accompanying two-day course designed to teach machine learning concepts to students aged 12 to 17 through programming-fre…
Over the past decade, Extended Reality (XR), including Virtual, Augmented, and Mixed Reality, gained attention as a research instrument in human-robot interaction studies, but remains underexplored in…
Obtaining data on high-impact falls from older adults is ethically difficult, yet these rare events cause many fall-related health problems. As a result, most radar-based fall detectors are trained on…
How do children respond to repeated robot errors? While prior research has examined adult reactions to successive robot errors, children's responses remain largely unexplored. In this study, we explor…
Deep learning is promising to enhance the accuracy and reduce the overhead of channel state information (CSI) feedback, which can boost the capacity of frequency division duplex (FDD) massive multiple…
Evaluating startups is inherently challenging in entrepreneurial finance, where investors confront severe information asymmetry and limited quantitative data. Leveraging a novel expert network call da…
Pediatric liver tumors are one of the most common solid tumors in pediatrics, with differentiation of benign or malignant status and pathological classification critical for clinical treatment. While …
Age-related hearing loss (HL) reduces speech intelligibility (SI) in older adults (OAs). However, deficits in central and cognitive processing also substantially impact SI. Understanding these contrib…
This study evaluates whether integrating curriculum learning with diffusion-based synthetic augmentation can enhance the detection of difficult pulmonary nodules in chest radiographs, particularly tho…
In this short article, I would like to briefly summarize my research in the first 5 years in my university academia life in USA. I think that my research results obtained in these 5 years are the best…
This work presents a first-of-its-kind graphical user interface (GUI)-based simulator developed using MATLAB App designer for the comprehensive analysis of sparse linear arrays (SLAs) in the differenc…
Spatial selective attention is an important asset for communication in cocktail party situations but may be compromised by short-term cognitive fatigue. Here we tested whether an effortful conversatio…
Generative speech models have demonstrated significant potential in improving human-machine interactions, offering valuable real-world applications such as language learning for children. However, ach…
This paper presents an evaluation of 18 children's in-the-wild experiences with the autonomous robot arm performer NED (Never-Ending Dancer) within the Thingamabobas installation, showcased across the…
