Phase Recognition for Pulmonary Orientation Detection: Towards Automated Intraoperative Imaging Guidance

Objective: This study introduces a novel deep-learning-based orientation recognition approach for detecting intraoperative lung orientation during robot-assisted anatomical resections, including lobectomy and segmentectomy. This method can potentially aid in anatomical structure identification, facilitate training and education, improve...

Data Model for Computer Vision Explainability, Fairness, and Robustness

In recent years, there has been a growing interest among researchers in the explainability, fairness, and robustness of Computer Vision models. While studies have explored the usability of these models for end users, limited research has delved into the challenges and requirements faced by researchers investigating these requirements. This study...

Towards Coherent and Effective Self-Management during the Post-Diagnosis Stage: Vomo: An application empowering individuals with Pulmonary Fibrosis

Pulmonary Fibrosis (PF) is a rare and incurable interstitial lung disease, which causes lung scarring, leading to an irreversible decline in patients’ lung function and breathing difficulties. In Europe, Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) affects over 400,000 people, and it claims the lives of about 100,000 people each year (EU-IPFF, 2023). In light of the...

Designing for explanation-driven trust in Chatbots

Trust plays an important role in the implementation of chatbot technology. This study was also focusing on user trust in chatbots, particularly focusing on the role of response delay and explanation-driven driven subjective transparency. This research includes a pretest and a main test. In the pretest, we selected one explanation that was...
