Artificial intelligence-driven anthropometric assessment for young children: evaluating the accuracy and practicality of a digital image-based length and weight prediction tool.

BMJ health & care informatics
BACKGROUND: Monitoring early childhood growth is vital, as growth faltering could indicate nutritional or health issues requiring prompt intervention. Our study's aim was to assess the performance of a length-weight artificial intelligence (LWAI) too...

Evaluating machine learning models for clothing size prediction using anthropometric measurements from 3D body scanning.

Scientific reports
An analysis of a dataset comprising 677 participants revealed substantial discrepancies in size categorization. Only 63 individuals (9.15%) maintained consistency across bust, waist, and hip measurements, whereas 614 participants (90.84%) exhibited s...

Estimation of daily energy requirements using a hybrid artificial intelligence model.

Scientific reports
Accurately estimating energy requirements is critical for individuals to maintain a healthy life. Traditional methods may be time-consuming, complex, low in accuracy, and costly, thus creating a need for new approaches. This study explores the applic...

Evaluation of anthropometric and ultrasonographic measurements with different machine learning methods in predicting difficult intubation: a prospective observational study.

BMC anesthesiology
INTRODUCTION: Difficult intubation is one of the most challenging scenarios to deal with due to increased morbidity and mortality. Machine learning systems can help predict this process in advance. This study aimed to predict whether patients had dif...

Supervised machine learning algorithms for the classification of obesity levels using anthropometric indices derived from bioelectrical impedance analysis.

Scientific reports
The accurate classification of obesity is essential for public health and clinical decision-making. Traditional anthropometric measures such as body mass index (BMI) have limitations in differentiating between fat and lean mass. This study aimed to e...

Predictive value of anthropometric indices for incident of dyslipidemia: a large population-based study.

Population health metrics
INTRODUCTION: Dyslipidemia as a modifiable risk factor for chronic non-communicable diseases has become a worldwide concern. We aim to explore different anthropometric measures as predictors of dyslipidemia using various machine learning methods.

An AI-assisted tool for automated growth monitoring in pediatric achondroplasia.

European journal of pediatrics
UNLABELLED: Growth assessment in achondroplasia requires disorder-specific growth charts incorporating sex- and age-specific values. Manual calculations are tedious and subject to error. We present an artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted tool that a...

Machine learning models for predicting tibial intramedullary nail length.

BMC musculoskeletal disorders
BACKGROUND: Tibial intramedullary nailing (IMN) represents a standard treatment for fractures of the tibial shaft. Nevertheless, accurately predicting the appropriate nail length prior to surgery remains a challenging endeavour. Conventional techniqu...

Evaluation of Anthropometric Measurement Results and the Relationship Between Individual Identity and Geographic Belonging Through Artificial Neural Networks from a Mental Health Perspective.

Nigerian journal of clinical practice
BACKGROUND: Identity verification and geographical belonging are significant issues with mental health implications, particularly in forensic contexts. Anthropometric measurements offer potential insights into these relationships.

Development and validation of a machine learning model for predicting pediatric metabolic syndrome using anthropometric and bioelectrical impedance parameters.

International journal of obesity (2005)
OBJECTIVE: Metabolic syndrome (MS) is a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, and its prevalence is increasing among children and adolescents. This study developed a machine learning model to predict MS using anthropometric and bioelectrical imped...
