Article Synopsis
  • Alzheimer's disease (AD) is increasingly prevalent among individuals aged 65 and older, with early prediction crucial to slowing its progression due to the lack of effective treatments once symptoms appear.
  • Researchers have developed a deep learning architecture called DenseIncepS115 that combines advanced modules with self-attention mechanisms to improve AD prediction accuracy from MRI scans.
  • This architecture achieved impressive accuracy rates of 99.5% and 98.5% on two publicly available datasets, demonstrating superior performance compared to existing techniques.

Accurate detection of skin lesions through computer-aided diagnosis has emerged as a critical advancement in dermatology, addressing the inefficiencies and errors inherent in manual visual analysis. Despite the promise of automated diagnostic approaches, challenges such as image size variability, hair artifacts, color inconsistencies, ruler markers, low contrast, lesion dimension differences, and gel bubbles must be overcome. Researchers have made significant strides in binary classification problems, particularly in distinguishing melanocytic lesions from normal skin conditions.

The statewide consumer transportation demand model analyzes consumers' transportation needs and preferences within a particular state. It involves collecting and analyzing data on travel behavior, such as trip purpose, mode choice, and travel patterns, and using this information to create models that predict future travel demand. Naturalistic research, crash databases, and driving simulations have all contributed to our knowledge of how modifications to vehicle design affect road safety.

Cancer is one of the leading significant causes of illness and chronic disease worldwide. Skin cancer, particularly melanoma, is becoming a severe health problem due to its rising prevalence. The considerable death rate linked with melanoma requires early detection to receive immediate and successful treatment.

Using artificial intelligence (AI) with the concept of a deep learning-based automated computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) system has shown improved performance for skin lesion classification. Although deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs) have significantly improved many image classification tasks, it is still difficult to accurately classify skin lesions because of a lack of training data, inter-class similarity, intra-class variation, and the inability to concentrate on semantically significant lesion parts. To address these issues, we proposed an automated deep learning and best feature selection framework for multiclass skin lesion classification in dermoscopy images.

We developed a framework to detect and grade knee RA using digital X-radiation images and used it to demonstrate the ability of deep learning approaches to detect knee RA using a consensus-based decision (CBD) grading system. The study aimed to evaluate the efficiency with which a deep learning approach based on artificial intelligence (AI) can find and determine the severity of knee RA in digital X-radiation images. The study comprised people over 50 years with RA symptoms, such as knee joint pain, stiffness, crepitus, and functional impairments.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the subject of a challenge and attention in the field of oncology and raises many promises for preventive diagnosis, but also fears, some of which are based on highly speculative visions for the classification and detection of tumors. A brain tumor that is malignant is a life-threatening disorder. Glioblastoma is the most prevalent kind of adult brain cancer and the 1 with the poorest prognosis, with a median survival time of less than a year.

The demand for the accurate and timely identification of melanoma as a major skin cancer type is increasing daily. Due to the advent of modern tools and computer vision techniques, it has become easier to perform analysis. Skin cancer classification and segmentation techniques require clear lesions segregated from the background for efficient results.

Malaria is predominant in many subtropical nations with little health-monitoring infrastructure. To forecast malaria and condense the disease's impact on the population, time series prediction models are necessary. The conventional technique of detecting malaria disease is for certified technicians to examine blood smears visually for parasite-infected RBC (red blood cells) underneath a microscope.
