Adaptive-size dictionary learning using information theoretic criteria for image reconstruction from undersampled k-space data in low field magnetic resonance imaging
(BMC Medical Imaging, 2020-06)
Background
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a safe non-invasive and nonionizing medical imaging modality that is used to visualize the structure of human anatomy. Conventional (high-field) MRI scanners are very expensive ...
Evaluation of requirements for the design of water resource management ICT model for integrated water resources management: the case of management of lake Victoria basin
(IEEE, 2020-05-18)
The paper addresses the use of partial least square-structural equation modelling (PLS- SEM) technique to evaluate the requirements for a design of a water resource management (ICT) model for an integrated water resource ...
Burden of cumulative risk factors associated with non-communicable diseases among adults in Uganda: evidence from a national baseline survey
(International Journal for Equity in Health, 2016-12-01)
Modification of known risk factors has been the most tested strategy for dealing with noncommunicable
diseases (NCDs). The cumulative number of NCD risk factors exhibited by an individual depicts a
disease burden. However, ...
A secure web based records management system for prisons: a case of Kisoro prison in Uganda
(International journal of computer, 2017)
Most Prisons in the developing countries are still using the traditional system – pen and papers, to keep track of
their records. This system takes long to finish a single transaction; this has led to loss of information ...
Comparative Performance of Machine Leaning Algorithms in Prediction of Cervical Cancer
(IEEE xplore, 2021-10)
Cervical cancer is among the most common types of cancer affecting women around the world despite the advances in prevention, screening, diagnosis, and treatment during the past decade. Cervical cancer can be treated if ...
Detecting the risk of customer churn in telecom sector: a comparative study
(Mathematical Problems in Engineering : Hindawi, 2022-07-18)
Churn rate describes the rate at which customers abandon a product or service. Identifying churn-risk customers is essential for telecom sectors to retain old customers and maintain a higher competitive advantage. The ...
A dictionary learning approach for joint reconstruction and denoising in low field magnetic resonance imaging
(2021 IST-Africa Conference (IST-Africa), 2021-10)
Currently, many children with hydrocephalus in East Africa and other resource-constrained countries do not have access to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scanners, the preferred imaging tool during the disease administration ...
Prediction of cervical cancer basing on risk factors using ensemble learning
(IEEE, 2020-05-22)
Cervical cancer is among the most common types of cancer affecting women around the world despite the advances in prevention, screening, diagnosis, and treatment during the past decade. Cervical cancer can be treated if ...
A survey on deep learning in medical image reconstruction
(Elsevier, 2021-03)
Medical image reconstruction aims to acquire high-quality medical images for clinical usage at minimal cost and
risk to the patients. Deep learning and its applications in medical imaging, especially in image reconstruction
have ...
Classification of cassava leaf diseases using deep Gaussian transfer learning model
(Engineering Reports, 2023-03)
In Sub-Saharan Africa, experts visually examine the plants and look for disease symptoms on the leaves to diagnose cassava diseases, a subjective method. Machine learning algorithms have been employed to quickly identify ...
