Journal Article
Bolton, K. J., Mendez-Villalon, A., Nanji, H., Jia, R., Ayling, K., Figueredo, G., & Vedhara, K. (2024). Monitoring university student response to social distancing policy during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic using Bluetooth: the RADAR study. Mathematics in Medical and Life Sciences, 1(1), Article 2425096. https://doi.org/10.1080/29937574.2024.2425096

Aim: We use the Remote Assessment of Disease and Relapses platform (RADAR) to collect Bluetooth contact and location data from university students. We test the ability of this technology to objectively capture social interaction, explore the propensi...

Association between Nutritional Status Assessed by Body Mass Index and Crohn’s Disease Phenotype: A Nation-Wide Analysis (2024)
Journal Article
Ndzo, J., Vuyyuru, S. K., Trimble, T., Yan, K., Figueredo, G., & Moran, G. W. (in press). Association between Nutritional Status Assessed by Body Mass Index and Crohn’s Disease Phenotype: A Nation-Wide Analysis. Journal of Crohn's and Colitis,

Background & Aims:

Incidence of obesity and Crohn’s disease (CD) is increasing globally. Therefore, understanding any associations between adiposity and disease phenotype is crucial. We aimed explore the relationship between nutritional status me...

Towards a more reliable interpretation of machine learning outputs for safety-critical systems using feature importance fusion (2021)
Journal Article
Rengasamy, D., Rothwell, B. C., & Figueredo, G. P. (2021). Towards a more reliable interpretation of machine learning outputs for safety-critical systems using feature importance fusion. Applied Sciences, 11(24), Article 11854. https://doi.org/10.3390/app112411854

When machine learning supports decision-making in safety-critical systems, it is important to verify and understand the reasons why a particular output is produced. Although feature importance calculation approaches assist in interpretation, there is...
