Implementation of Machine Learning Mechanism for Recognising Prostate Cancer through Photoacoustic Signal.

Biological tissues may be studied using photoacoustic (PA) spectroscopy, which can yield a wealth of physical and chemical data. However, it is really challenging to directly analyse these tissues because of a lot of data. Data mining techniques can get around this issue. In order to diagnose prostate cancer via PA spectrum assessment, this work describes the machine learning (ML) technique implem...

A Prediction Model of Defecation Based on BP Neural Network and Bowel Sound Signal Features.

(1) Background: Incontinence and its complications pose great difficulties in the care of the disabled. Currently, invasive incontinence monitoring methods are too invasive, expensive, and bulky to be widely used. Compared with previous methods, bowel sound monitoring is the most commonly used non-invasive monitoring method for intestinal diseases and may even provide clinical support for doctors....

Detection of Breast Cancer Lump and BRCA1/2 Genetic Mutation under Deep Learning.

To diagnose and cure breast cancer early, thus reducing the mortality of patients with breast cancer, a method was provided to judge threshold of imag...

Biparametric prostate MRI: impact of a deep learning-based software and of quantitative ADC values on the inter-reader agreement of experienced and inexperienced readers.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the impact of an artificial intelligence (AI) software and quantitative ADC (qADC) on the inter-reader agreement, diagnostic...

Mitigating urinary incontinence condition using machine learning.

BACKGROUND: Urinary incontinence (UI) is the inability to completely control the process of releasing urine. UI presents a social, medical, and mental...

Comparison of Three Approaches to Single-Port Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy: Our Institution's Initial Experience.
