Recurrent Neural Networks to Automatically Identify Rare Disease Epidemiologic Studies from PubMed.

AMIA Joint Summits on Translational Science proceedings. AMIA Joint Summits on Translational Science
Rare diseases affect between 25 and 30 million people in the United States, and understanding their epidemiology is critical to focusing research efforts. However, little is known about the prevalence of many rare diseases. Given a lack of automated ...

Early detection of COVID-19 in the UK using self-reported symptoms: a large-scale, prospective, epidemiological surveillance study.

The Lancet. Digital health
BACKGROUND: Self-reported symptoms during the COVID-19 pandemic have been used to train artificial intelligence models to identify possible infection foci. To date, these models have only considered the culmination or peak of symptoms, which is not s...

[Machine learning and its epidemiological applications].

Zhonghua liu xing bing xue za zhi = Zhonghua liuxingbingxue zazhi
As an important branch of artificial intelligence, machine learning is widely used in various fields. Machine learning has similarity to classical statistical methods, but can solve many problems which are difficult for traditional statistics, so it ...

Measuring and modelling perceptions of the built environment for epidemiological research using crowd-sourcing and image-based deep learning models.

Journal of exposure science & environmental epidemiology
BACKGROUND: Perceptions of the built environment, such as nature quality, beauty, relaxation, and safety, may be key factors linking the built environment to human health. However, few studies have examined these types of perceptions due to the diffi...

The performance of deep learning on thyroid nodule imaging predicts thyroid cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis of epidemiological studies with independent external test sets.

Diabetes & metabolic syndrome
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: It is still controversial whether deep learning (DL) systems add accuracy to thyroid nodule imaging classification based on the recent available evidence. We conducted this study to analyze the current evidence of DL in thyroid n...

Evaluating ChatGPT-4.0's data analytic proficiency in epidemiological studies: A comparative analysis with SAS, SPSS, and R.

Journal of global health
BACKGROUND: OpenAI's Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer 4.0 (ChatGPT-4), an emerging artificial intelligence (AI)-based large language model (LLM), has been receiving increasing attention from the medical research community for its innovative 'D...

Harnessing causal forests for epidemiologic research: key considerations.

American journal of epidemiology
Assessing heterogeneous treatment effects (HTEs) is an essential task in epidemiology. The recent integration of machine learning into causal inference has provided a new, flexible tool for evaluating complex HTEs: causal forest. In a recent paper, J...

Application of machine learning algorithms in an epidemiologic study of mortality.

Annals of epidemiology
PURPOSE: Epidemiologic studies are important in assessing risk factors of mortality. Machine learning (ML) is efficient in analyzing multidimensional data to unravel dependencies between risk factors and health outcomes.

Reporting Quality of AI Intervention in Randomized Controlled Trials in Primary Care: Systematic Review and Meta-Epidemiological Study.

Journal of medical Internet research
BACKGROUND: The surge in artificial intelligence (AI) interventions in primary care trials lacks a study on reporting quality.
