Assessing Breast Cancer Risk with an Artificial Neural Network.

Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention : APJCP
Objectives: Radiologists face uncertainty in making decisions based on their judgment of breast cancer risk. Artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques have been widely applied in detection/recognition of cancer. This study aimed to esta...

Hierarchical combinatorial deep learning architecture for pancreas segmentation of medical computed tomography cancer images.

BMC systems biology
BACKGROUND: Efficient computational recognition and segmentation of target organ from medical images are foundational in diagnosis and treatment, especially about pancreas cancer. In practice, the diversity in appearance of pancreas and organs in abd...

Assessing patient risk of central line-associated bacteremia via machine learning.

American journal of infection control
BACKGROUND: Central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) contribute to increased morbidity, length of hospital stay, and cost. Despite progress in understanding the risk factors, there remains a need to accurately predict the risk of CLAB...

Feasibility of robot-based perturbed-balance training during treadmill walking in a high-functioning chronic stroke subject: a case-control study.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: For stroke survivors, balance deficits that persist after the completion of the rehabilitation process lead to a significant risk of falls. We have recently developed a balance-assessment robot (BAR-TM) that enables assessment of balancin...

Machine learning classification of first-episode schizophrenia spectrum disorders and controls using whole brain white matter fractional anisotropy.

BMC psychiatry
BACKGROUND: Early diagnosis of schizophrenia could improve the outcome of the illness. Unlike classical between-group comparisons, machine learning can identify subtle disease patterns on a single subject level, which could help realize the potential...

Using support vector machines on photoplethysmographic signals to discriminate between hypovolemia and euvolemia.

PloS one
Identifying trauma patients at risk of imminent hemorrhagic shock is a challenging task in intraoperative and battlefield settings given the variability of traditional vital signs, such as heart rate and blood pressure, and their inability to detect ...

Urinary Polyamine Biomarker Panels with Machine-Learning Differentiated Colorectal Cancers, Benign Disease, and Healthy Controls.

International journal of molecular sciences
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most daunting diseases due to its increasing worldwide prevalence, which requires imperative development of minimally or non-invasive screening tests. Urinary polyamines have been reported as potential markers to...

Using Convolutional Neural Networks for Enhanced Capture of Breast Parenchymal Complexity Patterns Associated with Breast Cancer Risk.

Academic radiology
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: We evaluate utilizing convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to optimally fuse parenchymal complexity measurements generated by texture analysis into discriminative meta-features relevant for breast cancer risk prediction.

Machine learning techniques for medical diagnosis of diabetes using iris images.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Complementary and alternative medicine techniques have shown their potential for the treatment and diagnosis of chronical diseases like diabetes, arthritis etc. On the same time digital image processing techniques for diseas...
