Evaluation of an Artificial Intelligence-Based Tool and a Universal Low-Cost Robotized Microscope for the Automated Diagnosis of Malaria.

International journal of environmental research and public health
The gold standard diagnosis for malaria is the microscopic visualization of blood smears to identify parasites, although it is an expert-dependent technique and could trigger diagnostic errors. Artificial intelligence (AI) tools based on digital ima...

Generalized fractional optimization-based explainable lightweight CNN model for malaria disease classification.

Computers in biology and medicine
Over the past few decades, machine learning and deep learning (DL) have incredibly influenced a broader range of scientific disciplines. DL-based strategies have displayed superior performance in image processing compared to conventional standard met...

Diagnosis of infections using artificial intelligence techniques versus standard microscopy in a reference laboratory.

Journal of clinical microbiology
Diagnosing malaria using standard techniques is time-consuming. With limited staffing in many laboratories, this may lead to delays in reporting. Innovative technologies are changing the diagnostic landscape and may help alleviate staffing shortages....

Deciphering the climate-malaria nexus: A machine learning approach in rural southeastern Tanzania.

Public health
OBJECTIVES: Malaria remains a critical public health challenge, especially in regions like southeastern Tanzania. Understanding the intricate relationship between environmental factors and malaria incidence is essential for effective control and elim...

Application of Machine Learning in a Rodent Malaria Model for Rapid, Accurate, and Consistent Parasite Counts.

The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene
Rodent malaria models serve as important preclinical antimalarial and vaccine testing tools. Evaluating treatment outcomes in these models often requires manually counting parasite-infected red blood cells (iRBCs), a time-consuming process, which can...

Image cropping for malaria parasite detection on heterogeneous data.

Journal of microbiological methods
Malaria is a deadly disease of significant concern for the international community. It is an infectious disease caused by a Plasmodium spp. parasite and transmitted by the bite of an infected female Anopheles mosquito. The parasite multiplies in the ...

MalariaFlow: A comprehensive deep learning platform for multistage phenotypic antimalarial drug discovery.

European journal of medicinal chemistry
Malaria remains a significant global health challenge due to the growing drug resistance of Plasmodium parasites and the failure to block transmission within human host. While machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) methods have shown promise in...

Pursuing the elusive footsteps of malaria in peripheral blood smears utilizing artificial intelligence.

British journal of haematology
For over a century, the need to identify malaria in the peripheral blood has been the driving force behind the development of fundamental clinical microscopy techniques. In the study by Moysis et al., artificial intelligence-based model was utilized ...

Leveraging deep learning for detecting red blood cell morphological changes in blood films from children with severe malaria anaemia.

British journal of haematology
In sub-Saharan Africa, acute-onset severe malaria anaemia (SMA) is a critical challenge, particularly affecting children under five. The acute drop in haematocrit in SMA is thought to be driven by an increased phagocytotic pathological process in the...

Efficient deep learning-based approach for malaria detection using red blood cell smears.

Scientific reports
Malaria is an extremely malignant disease and is caused by the bites of infected female mosquitoes. This disease is not only infectious among humans, but among animals as well. Malaria causes mild symptoms like fever, headache, sweating and vomiting,...
