PRIMORDIAL – An artificial intelligence (AI) driven prediction model to detect risk factors for medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaws. KU Leuven
Bone health equilibrium can be altered by disease and the use of
medication. Antiresorptive drugs are frequently used and highly
effective to prevent bone metastasis in patients with cancer. Yet,
their use is associated with the occurrence of medication-related
osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ), a potentially debilitating side
effect characterized by exposed necrotic bone in the oral cavity,
infection, and pain ...
An integrated approach to study the delegation of conflict-of-interest decisions to autonomous agents. Ghent University
In this age of ubiquitous digital interconnectivity, we may envisage that humans will increasingly delegate their social, economic or data-related transactions to an autonomous agent, for reasons of convenience or complexity. Although the scientific knowledge to create such systems appears to be available, this transformation does not appear to become commonplace soon, except maybe the use of basic digital assistants. We aim to explore if ...

Homogeneous and heterogeneous metal-oxo clusters as a new generation of artificial metal-peptidases KU Leuven
Proteins are one of the most important molecules on Earth, performing different functions in all living organisms. Investigation of their structure and function is important for many fields such as pharmacology and medicine, among many others. Complex structure and large size of proteins require their fragmentation into the smaller fragments, which is the main approach used for protein analyses in the field of proteomics. The cleavage of ...
Using artificial intelligence to facilitate communication between deaf and hearing people Ghent University
According to the WHO, over 5% of the world population suffers from hearing loss. This is expected to double by 2050. Hearing loss is estimated to cost society over 750 billion US dollars globally, per year. The Flemish government subsidizes up to 36 hours of interpreter aid per deaf person per year, which also leads to high costs. These interpreters facilitate communication between people with hearing loss and those without. After all, the ...
Policy support for managing the COVID pandemic through artificial intelligence Vrije Universiteit Brussel
large variety of models allow for simulations, which can be combined
with advanced optimization approaches using artificial intelligence, in
order to identify the most suitable prevention and containment
measures. We will extend state-of-the-art Reinforcement Learning
(RL) techniques, which have been shown to outperform the currently
used ...
Development of polyoxometaltes as artificial enzymes for the selective hydrolysis of membrane- and glyco -proteins for proteomics applications KU Leuven
The total number of different proteins present in Earth organisms is estimated to be up to 10 million. While their identification in terms of primary sequences is expanding at an increasing rate, elucidation of their function and three-dimensional structure is drastically lacking behind. Most of the currently used approaches in proteomics for unraveling the structure and function of proteins require protein hydrolysis into more manageable ...
