PURPOSE: The dosimetric accuracies of volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) plans were predicted using plan complexity parameters via machine learning.
Nowadays, the most frequent cancer in women is breast cancer (malignant tumor). If breast cancer is detected at the beginning stage, it can often be cured. Many researchers proposed numerous methods for early prediction of this Cancer. In this paper,...
OBJECTIVES: Extracting genetic information from a full range of sequencing data is important for understanding disease. We propose a novel method to effectively explore the landscape of genetic mutations and aggregate them to predict cancer type.
OBJECTIVE: Ultrasound-based fetal biometric measurements, such as head circumference (HC) and biparietal diameter (BPD), are frequently used to evaluate gestational age and diagnose fetal central nervous system pathology. Because manual measurements ...

Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) seroclearance during treatment is associated with a better prognosis among patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB). Significant gaps remain in our understanding on how to predict HBsAg seroclearance accurately and ...
In this paper the optimum timing for the postoperative functional cure of basic intermittent exotropia is explored based on support vector machine (SVM). One hundred and thirty-two patients were recruited in this prospective cross-sectional study wit...
The adsorption of six heavy metals (lead, cadmium, nickel, arsenic, copper, and zinc) on 44 biochars were modeled using artificial neural network (ANN) and random forest (RF) based on 353 dataset of adsorption experiments from literatures. The regres...
Solar energy is a major type of renewable energy, and its estimation is important for decision-makers. This study introduces a new prediction model for solar radiation based on support vector regression (SVR) and the improved particle swarm optimizat...
