Two prediction models for tumor prediction based on logistic regression and BP neural network were proposed in this paper; a sensitivity analysis of risk factors was also conducted. The two protocols will be implemented in the R language and demonstr...
BACKGROUND: Early death after a treatment can be seen as a therapeutic failure. Accurate prediction of patients at risk for early mortality is crucial to avoid unnecessary harm and reducing costs. The goal of our work is two-fold: first, to evaluate ...
The valuable structure features in full-dose computed tomography (FdCT) scans can be exploited as prior knowledge for low-dose CT (LdCT) imaging. However, lacking the capability to represent local characteristics of interested structures of the LdCT ...

The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of pixel-based machine learning (ML) techniques, i.e., fuzzy-c-means clustering method (FCM), and the artificial neural network (ANN) and support vector machine (SVM), on an automated framework for ...
We present a computer-aided diagnosis system (CADx) for the automatic categorization of solid, part-solid and non-solid nodules in pulmonary computerized tomography images using a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). Provided with only a two-dimension...
Lung cancer is one of the most common malignancies and has a low 5-year survival rate. There are no cheap, simple and widely available screening methods for the early diagnostics of lung cancer. The aim of this study was to determine whether analysis...
Lung cancer is the most common cancer that cannot be ignored and cause death with late health care. Currently, CT can be used to help doctors detect the lung cancer in the early stages. In many cases, the diagnosis of identifying the lung cancer depe...
