OBJECTIVE: To establish an artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted platform for detection of parasite eggs, and to evaluate its detection efficiency and accuracy, so as to provide technical supports for elimination of parasitic diseases.
BACKGROUND: Conventional microscopy of Kato-Katz (KK1.0) thick smears, the primary method for diagnosing soil-transmitted helminth (STH) infections, has limited sensitivity and is error-prone. Artificial intelligence-based digital pathology (AI-DP) m...
spp. (root-knot nematodes [RKNs]) are a major threat to a wide range of agricultural crops worldwide. Breeding crops for RKN resistance is an effective management strategy, yet assaying large numbers of breeding lines requires laborious bioassays th...
BACKGROUND: Current methods for obtaining fecal egg counts in horses are often inaccurate and variable depending on the analyst's skill and experience. Automated digital scanning of fecal sample slides integrated with analysis by an artificial intell...
BACKGROUND: Intestinal parasitic infections are still a serious public health problem in developing countries, and the diagnosis of parasitic infections requires the first step of parasite/egg detection of samples. Automated detection can eliminate t...
