Classification of Volumetric Images Using Multi-Instance Learning and Extreme Value Theorem.

IEEE transactions on medical imaging
Volumetric imaging is an essential diagnostic tool for medical practitioners. The use of popular techniques such as convolutional neural networks (CNN) for analysis of volumetric images is constrained by the availability of detailed (with local annot...

Respiratory Sound Based Classification of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: a Risk Stratification Approach in Machine Learning Paradigm.

Journal of medical systems
This article investigates the classification of normal and COPD subjects on the basis of respiratory sound analysis using machine learning techniques. Thirty COPD and 25 healthy subject data are recorded. Total of 39 lung sound features and 3 spirome...

Smooth Bayesian network model for the prediction of future high-cost patients with COPD.

International journal of medical informatics
INTRODUCTION: The clinical course of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is marked by acute exacerbation events that increase hospitalization rates and healthcare spending. The early identification of future high-cost patients with COPD may ...

Feature-weighted survival learning machine for COPD failure prediction.

Artificial intelligence in medicine
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) yields a high rate of failures such as hospital readmission and death in the United States, Canada and worldwide. COPD failure imposes a significant social and economic burden on society, and predicting su...

Gene fingerprint model for literature based detection of the associations among complex diseases: a case study of COPD.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: Disease comorbidity is very common and has significant impact on disease treatment. Revealing the associations among diseases may help to understand the mechanisms of diseases, improve the prevention and treatment of diseases, and support...

Broadening the Perspective of Cost-Effectiveness Modeling in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: A New Patient-Level Simulation Model Suitable to Evaluate Stratified Medicine.

Value in health : the journal of the International Society for Pharmacoeconomics and Outcomes Research
OBJECTIVES: To develop a health economic model that included a great diversity of patient characteristics and outcomes for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which can be used to inform decisions about stratified medicine in COPD.

Correlation of the modified Medical Research Council dyspnea scale with airway structure assessed by three-dimensional CT in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Respiratory medicine
BACKGROUND: Dyspnea is a common symptom in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The modified Medical Research Council (mMRC) dyspnea scale is a widely used questionnaire to assess dyspnea. However, the relationship of the mMRC dyspnea scale ...

Machine Learning Algorithms Utilizing Functional Respiratory Imaging May Predict COPD Exacerbations.

Academic radiology
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Acute chronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbations (AECOPD) have a significant negative impact on the quality of life and accelerate progression of the disease. Functional respiratory imaging (FRI) has the potential t...

Identification of Novel Genes in Human Airway Epithelial Cells associated with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) using Machine-Based Learning Algorithms.

Scientific reports
The aim of this project was to identify candidate novel therapeutic targets to facilitate the treatment of COPD using machine-based learning (ML) algorithms and penalized regression models. In this study, 59 healthy smokers, 53 healthy non-smokers an...
