Automated chest screening based on a hybrid model of transfer learning and convolutional sparse denoising autoencoder.

Biomedical engineering online
OBJECTIVE: In this paper, we aim to investigate the effect of computer-aided triage system, which is implemented for the health checkup of lung lesions involving tens of thousands of chest X-rays (CXRs) that are required for diagnosis. Therefore, hig...

Lung sounds classification using convolutional neural networks.

Artificial intelligence in medicine
Lung sounds convey relevant information related to pulmonary disorders, and to evaluate patients with pulmonary conditions, the physician or the doctor uses the traditional auscultation technique. However, this technique suffers from limitations. For...

Small lung nodules detection based on local variance analysis and probabilistic neural network.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: In medical examinations doctors use various techniques in order to provide to the patients an accurate analysis of their actual state of health. One of the commonly used methodologies is the x-ray screening. This examination...

Building predictive in vitro pulmonary toxicity assays using high-throughput imaging and artificial intelligence.

Archives of toxicology
Human lungs are susceptible to the toxicity induced by soluble xenobiotics. However, the direct cellular effects of many pulmonotoxic chemicals are not always clear, and thus, a general in vitro assay for testing pulmonotoxicity applicable to a wide ...

Deep D-Bar: Real-Time Electrical Impedance Tomography Imaging With Deep Neural Networks.

IEEE transactions on medical imaging
The mathematical problem for electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a highly nonlinear ill-posed inverse problem requiring carefully designed reconstruction procedures to ensure reliable image generation. D-bar methods are based on a rigorous mathe...

Deep Convolutional Hashing for Low-Dimensional Binary Embedding of Histopathological Images.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Compact binary representations of histopa-thology images using hashing methods provide efficient approximate nearest neighbor search for direct visual query in large-scale databases. They can be utilized to measure the probability of the abnormality ...

Effective Pneumothorax Detection for Chest X-Ray Images Using Local Binary Pattern and Support Vector Machine.

Journal of healthcare engineering
Automatic image segmentation and feature analysis can assist doctors in the treatment and diagnosis of diseases more accurately. Automatic medical image segmentation is difficult due to the varying image quality among equipment. In this paper, the au...

Semantic Segmentation of Pathological Lung Tissue With Dilated Fully Convolutional Networks.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Early and accurate diagnosis of interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) is crucial for making treatment decisions, but can be challenging even for experienced radiologists. The diagnostic procedure is based on the detection and recognition of the different...

A novel feature extraction technique for pulmonary sound analysis based on EMD.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The stethoscope based auscultation technique is a primary diagnostic tool for chest sound analysis. However, the performance of this method is limited due to its dependency on physicians experience, knowledge and also clarit...
