Impaired forward model updating in young adults with Tourette syndrome (2018)
Journal Article
Kim, S., Jackson, G. M., Dyke, K., & Jackson, S. R. (2019). Impaired forward model updating in young adults with Tourette syndrome. Brain, 142(1), 209-219. https://doi.org/10.1093/brain/awy306

Current theories of motor control emphasise how the brain may use internal models of the body to ensure accurate planning and control of movements. One such internal model - a forward model - is thought to generate an estimate of the next motor state... Read More about Impaired forward model updating in young adults with Tourette syndrome.

Development of human electrophysiological brain networks (2018)
Journal Article
Briley, P. M., Liddle, E. B., Groom, M. J., Smith, H. J. F., Morris, P. G., Colclough, G. L., …Liddle, P. F. (2018). Development of human electrophysiological brain networks. Journal of Neurophysiology, 120(6), 3122-3130. https://doi.org/10.1152/jn.00293.2018

Functional activity in the human brain is intrinsically organized into independently active, connected brain regions. These networks include sensorimotor systems, as well as higher-order cognitive networks such as the default mode network (DMN), whic...

Three-dimensional Segmentation of Blood Vessels from Intensity In-homogeneous Medical Images (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Bukenya, F., Awwad, A., Duan, J., Ehling, J., Faas, H., & Bai, L. (2018). Three-dimensional Segmentation of Blood Vessels from Intensity In-homogeneous Medical Images. In 2018 IEEE Symposium Series on Computational Intelligence (SSCI) (1508-1514). https://doi.org/10.1109/SSCI.2018.8628675

Blood vessel segmentation helps to know the progress of the disease during diagnosis. The presence of intensity in-homogeneity, conglutination tissue and noise in medical images has led to difficulty in extraction of different sizes of blood vessels,...
