Utilization of machine learning for dengue case screening.

Dengue causes approximately 10.000 deaths and 100 million symptomatic infections annually worldwide, making it a significant public health concern. To address this, artificial intelligence tools like machine learning can play a crucial role in developing more effective strategies for control, diagnosis, and treatment. This study identifies relevant variables for the screening of dengue cases throu...

Time-Series MR Images Identifying Complete Response to Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in Breast Cancer Using a Deep Learning Approach.

BACKGROUND: Pathological complete response (pCR) is an essential criterion for adjusting follow-up treatment plans for patients with breast cancer (BC). The value of the visual geometry group and long short-term memory (VGG-LSTM) network using time-series dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) for pCR identification in BC is unclear.

Screening structure and predicting toxicity of pesticide adjuvants using molecular dynamics simulation and machine learning for minimizing environmental impacts.

Surfactants as synergistic agents are necessary to improve the stability and utilization of pesticides, while their use is often accompanied by unexpe...
