BACKGROUND: Reinforcement learning (RL) provides a promising technique to solve complex sequential decision making problems in health care domains. To ensure such applications, an explicit reward function encoding domain knowledge should be specified...
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate a deep convolutional neural network (dCNN) for detection, highlighting, and classification of ultrasound (US) breast lesions mimicking human decision-making according to the Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS).
There is a growing notion that artificial general intelligence (AGI) will replace some of the work done by trained professionals, including physicians. This idea, however, seems to have logical leap; herein, we discuss three problems that are signifi...
It is the main goal of this study to investigate the concordance of a decision support system and the recommendation of spinal surgeons regarding back pain. 111 patients had to complete the decision support system. Furthermore, their illness was diag...
Machine-learning methods can assist with the medical decision-making processes at the both the clinical and diagnostic levels. In this article, we first review historical milestones and specific applications of computer-based medical decision support...
This study trained long short-term memory (LSTM) recurrent neural networks (RNNs) incorporating an attention mechanism to predict daily sepsis, myocardial infarction (MI), and vancomycin antibiotic administration over two week patient ICU courses in ...
