An analytical review on the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning in diagnosis, prediction, and risk factor analysis of multiple sclerosis.

Medical research offers potential for disease prediction, like Multiple Sclerosis (MS). This neurological disorder damages nerve cell sheaths, with treatments focusing on symptom relief. Manual MS detection is time-consuming and error prone. Though MS lesion detection has been studied, limited attention has been paid to clinical analysis and computational risk factor prediction. Artificial intelli...

A machine learning artefact detection method for single-channel infant event-related potential studies.

. Automated detection of artefact in stimulus-evoked electroencephalographic (EEG) data recorded in neonates will improve the reproducibility and speed of analysis in clinical research compared with manual identification of artefact. Some studies use very short, single-channel epochs of EEG data with little recorded EEG per infant-for example because the clinical vulnerability of the infants limit...

At-admission prediction of mortality and pulmonary embolism in an international cohort of hospitalised patients with COVID-19 using statistical and machine learning methods.

By September 2022, more than 600 million cases of SARS-CoV-2 infection have been reported globally, resulting in over 6.5 million deaths. COVID-19 mor...
