Choosing the Best Strategy: Evaluations and Adoption

Just like deciding which pair of shoes to wear, people carefully evaluate different strategies when solving problems. Previous research has looked at external and personal factors that influence whether individuals adopt new strategies. However, this study takes a fresh approach by examining how individuals evaluate strategies themselves. Undergraduate participants were presented with two strategies for […]

Non-stationary neural signal to image conversion framework for image-based deep learning algorithms

This paper presents a time-efficient preprocessing framework that converts any given 1D physiological signal recordings into a 2D image representation for training image-based deep learning models. The non-stationary signal is rasterized into the 2D image using Bresenham’s line algorithm with time complexity O(n). The robustness of the proposed approach is evaluated based on two publicly […]

Unlocking the Hidden Connection Between Brain Disorders and MRI Findings

Imagine your brain as a bustling city, with different neighborhoods representing different cognitive functions. In this city, one of the major areas of concern is cerebral small vessel disease (SVD), which can lead to memory loss and behavioral changes. A recent study sought to uncover the link between these behavioral and psychological symptoms (BPS) and […]
