BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: A feed-forward neural network (FNN) is a type of artificial neural network that has been widely used in medical diagnosis, data mining, stock market analysis, and other fields. Many studies have used FNN to develop medical d...
OBJECTIVE: We study the performance of machine learning (ML) methods, including neural networks (NNs), to extract mutational test results from pathology reports collected by cancer registries. Given the lack of hand-labeled datasets for mutational te...

Metabolic reprogramming is a hallmark of cancer. In cancer cells, transcription factors (TFs) govern metabolic reprogramming through abnormally increasing or decreasing the transcription rate of metabolic enzymes, which provides cancer cells growth a...
PURPOSE: Non-coplanar 4π radiotherapy generalizes intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) to automate beam geometry selection but requires complicated hyperparameter tuning to attain superior plan quality, which can be tedious and inconsistent. ...

BACKGROUND: Approximately 20% of deaths in the US each year are attributable to smoking, yet current practices in the recording of this health risk in electronic health records (EHRs) have not led to discernable changes in health outcomes. Several gr...
In the last decade, exponential growth of Internet of Things (IoT) and cloud computing takes the healthcare services to the next level. At the same time, lung cancer is identified as a dangerous disease which increases the global mortality rate annua...
BACKGROUND: Detection of pulmonary nodules is an important aspect of an automatic detection system. Incomputer-aided diagnosis (CAD) systems, the ability to detect pulmonary nodules is highly important, which plays an important role in the diagnosis ...
Classification of benign-malignant lung nodules on chest CT is the most critical step in the early detection of lung cancer and prolongation of patient survival. Despite their success in image classification, deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs...
