Few-Shot Learning Geometric Ensemble for Multi-label Classification of Chest X-Rays.

This paper aims to identify uncommon cardiothoracic diseases and patterns on chest X-ray images. Training a machine learning model to classify rare diseases with multi-label indications is challenging without sufficient labeled training samples. Our model leverages the information from common diseases and adapts to perform on less common mentions.

A scoping review of artificial intelligence applications in thoracic surgery.

Objectives: Machine learning (ML) has great potential, but there are few examples of its implementation improving outcomes. The thoracic surgeon must be aware of pertinent ML literature and how to evaluate this field for the safe translation to patient care. This scoping review provides an introduction to ML applications specific to the thoracic surgeon.
