In December 2019 an outbreak of a new disease happened, in Wuhan city, China, in which the symptoms were very similar to pneumonia. The disease was attributed to SARS-CoV-2 as the infectious agent and it was called the new coronavirus or Covid-19. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared a worldwide pandemic of the new coronavirus. We...

The proliferation of the SARS-CoV-2 virus to the whole world caused more than 250,000 deaths worldwide and over 4 million confirmed cases. The severity of Covid-19, the exponential rate at which the virus proliferates, and the rapid exhaustion of the public health resources are critical factors. The RT-PCR with virus DNA identification is still the...

PurposeIn late 2019, the SARS-CoV-2 virus spread worldwide. The virus has high rates of proliferation and causes severe respiratory symptoms, such as pneumonia. The standard diagnostic method for pneumonia is chest X-ray image. There are many advantages to using COVID-19 diagnostic X-rays: low cost, fast, and widely available.Methods We propose an...

PurposeElectrical impedance tomography (EIT) is an image technique based on the application of an alternating electrical current on electrodes placed on the surface of the domain, which are also responsible for measuring the resulting electrical potentials. EIT main advantages are portability, low cost, and nonuse of ionizing radiation. EIT image r...

... The use of brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), or brain-machine interfaces (BMIs), whereby brain activity is recorded and decoded in real time to control an avatar in an immersive virtual reality (VR) environment or a device, combined with tactile and thermal feedback has led to beneficial neuroplasticity effects [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. Improvement in BCIs has been achieved both through improvements in the use of different classifiers [13][14][15][16][17], as well as through spinal cord stimulation [18], functional electrical Life 2024, 14, 396 2 of 22 stimulation [8], but also by improving immersiveness. We recently presented a BCI that innovated through the introduction of multiple complex virtual reality scenarios that allowed for simultaneous visual, auditory, and tactile feedback [10,19]. ...
... Para a presente investigação, utilizou-se a Multimodal Database for Affect Recognition and Implicit Tagging (MAHNOB-HCI) [22], composta por dados de diversas modalidades de sinais fisiológicos periféricos e centrais, coletados a partir da participação de 30 voluntários dos sexos feminino e masculino. [13], [24], [25] e [26]. ...
... Sensitivity represents the ability of a test to correctly identify the disease in patients who are truly sick. Therefore, sensitivity is the probability that a patient will be correctly diagnosed when they are indeed ill [30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40]. The following equation represents sensitivity: ...
... Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a functional imaging technique that measurements boundary voltages to continuously reconstruct and visualize the conductivity distribution within an observed object [1,2]. This technique has several advantages, including safety, absence of radiation, rapid response, portability, and cost-effectiveness, rendering it a compelling choice for a variety of applications [3]. Consequently, EIT has attracted attention and has been widely employed across numerous fields. ...
