      A comparative study of morphological and other texture features for the characterization of atherosclerotic carotid plaques 

      Christodoulou, Christodoulos I.; Kyriacou, Efthyvoulos C.; Pattichis, Marios S.; Pattichis, Constantinos S.; Nicolaïdes, Andrew N. (2003)
      The extraction of features characterizing the structure of atherosclerotic carotid plaques, obtained by high-resolution ultrasound imaging is important for the correct plaque classification and the estimation of the risk ...

      Ethnicity as a factor for the estimation of the risk for preeclampsia: A neural network approach 

      Neocleous, Costas K.; Nicolaides, Kypros H.; Neokleous, Kleanthis C.; Schizas, Christos N. (2010)
      A large number of feedforward neural structures, both standard multilayer and multi-slab schemes have been applied to a large data base of pregnant women, aiming at generating a predictor for the risk of preeclampsia ...

      First Trimester Noninvasive Prenatal Diagnosis: A Computational Intelligence Approach 

      Neocleous, Andreas C.; Nicolaides, Kypros H.; Schizas, Christos N. (2016)
      The objective of this study is to examine the potential value of using machine learning techniques such as artificial neural network (ANN) schemes for the noninvasive estimation, at 11-13 weeks of gestation, the risk for ...

      An integrated teleconsultation system for the evaluation of the risk of stroke 

      Kyriacou, Efthyvoulos C.; Pattichis, Constantinos S.; Christodoulou, Chris C.; Karaolis, Minas A.; Nicolaïdes, Andrew N. (Plymouth University, 2005)
      This paper describes the design and development of an integrated teleconsultation system for the estimation of the annual incidence of stroke related to carotid atherosclerotic plaque and the detection of high risk and low ...

      Neural networks to estimate the influence of cervix length on the prediction of spontaneous preterm delivery before 37 weeks 

      Neokleous,Kleanthis C.; Schizas, Christos N.; Neokleous,Kleanthis C.; Pattichis, Constantinos S.; Anastasopoulos, Panagiotis; Nikolaides, Kypros H. (2008)
      Neural networks were applied in an effort to predict the risk for early spontaneous preterm delivery using various demographic, clinical, and laboratory inputs. Furthermore, attention has been focused on the influence of ...

      Neural networks to estimate the risk for preeclampsia occurrence 

      Neocleous, Costas K.; Anastasopoulos, Panagiotis; Nikolaides, Kypros H.; Schizas, Christos N.; Neokleous, Kleanthis C. (2009)
      A number of neural network schemes have been applied to a large data base of pregnant women, aiming at generating a predictor for the estimation of the risk of occurrence of preeclampsia at an early stage. The database was ...

      Quality control for structural credit risk models 

      Andreou, Elena; Ghysels, Eric (2008)
      Over the last four decades, a large number of structural models have been developed to estimate and price credit risk. The focus of the paper is on a neglected issue pertaining to fundamental shifts in the structural ...

      Ultrasound imaging media layer texture analysis of the carotid artery 

      Loizou, Christos P.; Pantzaris, Marios C.; Nicolaïdes, Andrew N.; Spanias, Andreas S.; Pattichis, Marios S.; Pattichis, Constantinos S. (2008)
      The intima-media thickness (IMT) of the common carotid artery (CCA) is widely used as an early indicator of cardiovascular disease (CVD). It was proposed but not thoroughly investigated that the media layer (ML), its ...
