Predicting obesity using longitudinal near infra-red spectroscopy (NIRS) data (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Abdullah, A., Hussain, A., & Khan, I. (2017, May). Predicting obesity using longitudinal near infra-red spectroscopy (NIRS) data. Presented at ICCDA '17: International Conference on Compute and Data Analysis, Lakeland, FL, USA

Globally there has been a dramatic increase in obesity. Thus understanding, predicting and managing obesity has the potential to save lives and billions. Behavioral studies suggest that binging by obese persons is prompted by inflated brain reward ce... Read More about Predicting obesity using longitudinal near infra-red spectroscopy (NIRS) data.

Towards Next-Generation Lip-Reading Driven Hearing-Aids: A preliminary Prototype Demo (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Adeel, A., Gogate, M., & Hussain, A. (2017, August). Towards Next-Generation Lip-Reading Driven Hearing-Aids: A preliminary Prototype Demo. Presented at 1st International Workshop on Challenges in Hearing Assistive Technology (CHAT 2017), Stockholm, Sweden

Speech enhancement aims to enhance the perceived speech quality and intelligibility in the presence of noise. Classical speech enhancement methods are mainly based on audio only processing which often perform poorly in adverse conditions, where overw...

Formal Ontology Generation by deep machine learning (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Wang, Y., Valipour, M., Zatarain, O., Gavrilova, M., Hussain, A., Howard, N., & Patel, S. (2017). Formal Ontology Generation by deep machine learning. . https://doi.org/10.1109/ICCI-CC.2017.8109723

An ontology is a taxonomic hierarchy of lexical terms and their syntactic and semantic relations for representing a framework of structured knowledge. Ontology used to be problem-specific and manually built due to its extreme complexity. Based on the... Read More about Formal Ontology Generation by deep machine learning.
