Deep Learning for Imaging and Detection of Microorganisms.

Trends in microbiology
Despite tremendous recent interest, the application of deep learning in microbiology has still not reached its full potential. To tackle the challenges faced by human-operated microscopy, deep-learning-based methods have been proposed for microscopic...

Source identification of infectious diseases in networks via label ranking.

PloS one
BACKGROUND: Outbreaks of infectious diseases would cause great losses to the human society. Source identification in networks has drawn considerable interest in order to understand and control the infectious disease propagation processes. Unsatisfact...

Automated Classification of Online Sources for Infectious Disease Occurrences Using Machine-Learning-Based Natural Language Processing Approaches.

International journal of environmental research and public health
Collecting valid information from electronic sources to detect the potential outbreak of infectious disease is time-consuming and labor-intensive. The automated identification of relevant information using machine learning is necessary to respond to ...

Network inference from population-level observation of epidemics.

Scientific reports
Using the continuous-time susceptible-infected-susceptible (SIS) model on networks, we investigate the problem of inferring the class of the underlying network when epidemic data is only available at population-level (i.e., the number of infected ind...

Deep Learning for Automated Liver Segmentation to Aid in the Study of Infectious Diseases in Nonhuman Primates.

Academic radiology
With the advent of deep learning, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have evolved as an effective method for the automated segmentation of different tissues in medical image analysis. In certain infectious diseases, the liver is one of the more hig...

Digitalization, clinical microbiology and infectious diseases.

Clinical microbiology and infection : the official publication of the European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases

Image analysis and artificial intelligence in infectious disease diagnostics.

Clinical microbiology and infection : the official publication of the European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases
BACKGROUND: Microbiologists are valued for their time-honed skills in image analysis, including identification of pathogens and inflammatory context in Gram stains, ova and parasite preparations, blood smears and histopathologic slides. They also mus...

Benchmarking Deep Learning Architectures for Predicting Readmission to the ICU and Describing Patients-at-Risk.

Scientific reports
To compare different deep learning architectures for predicting the risk of readmission within 30 days of discharge from the intensive care unit (ICU). The interpretability of attention-based models is leveraged to describe patients-at-risk. Several ...

Multi-Modal Diagnosis of Infectious Diseases in the Developing World.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
In low and middle income countries, infectious diseases continue to have a significant impact, particularly amongst the poorest in society. Tetanus and hand foot and mouth disease (HFMD) are two such diseases and, in both, death is associated with au...

Identification of infectious disease-associated host genes using machine learning techniques.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: With the global spread of multidrug resistance in pathogenic microbes, infectious diseases emerge as a key public health concern of the recent time. Identification of host genes associated with infectious diseases will improve our underst...
