Artificial Intelligence-Based Applications for Bone Fracture Detection Using Medical Images: A Systematic Review.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is making notable advancements in the medical field, particularly in bone fracture detection. This systematic review compiles and assesses existing research on AI applications aimed at identifying bone fractures through medical imaging, encompassing studies from 2010 to 2023. It evaluates the performance of various AI models, such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs), in diagnosing bone fractures, highlighting their superior accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity compared to traditional diagnostic methods.

Inlier Clustering based on the Residuals of Random Hypotheses.

We present an approach for motion clustering based on a novel observation that a signature for putative pixel correspondences can be generated by collecting their residuals with respect to model hypotheses drawn randomly from the data. Inliers of the same motion cluster should have strongly correlated residuals, which are low when a hypothesis is consistent with the data in the cluster and high otherwise. After evaluating a number of hypotheses, members of the same cluster can be identified based on these correlations.

Zero-Shot Deep Domain Adaptation With Common Representation Learning.

Domain Adaptation aims at adapting the knowledge learned from a domain (source-domain) to another (target-domain). Existing approaches typically require a portion of task-relevant target-domain data a priori. We propose an approach, zero-shot deep domain adaptation (ZDDA), which uses paired dual-domain task-irrelevant data to eliminate the need for task-relevant target-domain training data.

Lifestyle Intervention for Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

Background Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the major cause of global mortality. Applying a comprehensive interventional program may reduce the incidence of cardiovascular disease and its complications. Objective This study compared the effects of a three-month intervention involving lifestyle modification and physical activity with standard care in women ≥30 years having a moderate to high risk of CVD, with respect to improving physical activity and cardiovascular disease risk factors at the National Guard Residential City in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, in 2015.
