Significant progress has been made recently with the contribution of technological advances in studies on brain cancer. Regarding this, identifying and correctly classifying tumors is a crucial task in the field of medical imaging. The disease-related tumor classification problem, on which deep learning technologies have also become a focus, is very important in the diagnosis and treatment of the disease.

Introduction: Monitoring LDL-C levels is essential in clinical practice because there is a direct relation between low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels and atherosclerotic heart disease risk. Therefore, measurement or estimate of LDL-C is critical. The present study aims to evaluate Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Explainable AI (XAI) methodologies in predicting LDL-C levels while emphasizing the interpretability of these predictions.

Background: The aim of this paper is to report one of the significant applications of artificial intelligence (AI) and how it affects everyday clinical practice in neurosurgery. The authors present a case in which a patient was diagnosed via an AI algorithm during ongoing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). According to this algorithm, the corresponding physicians were immediately warned, and the patient received prompt appropriate treatment.

Although few performance evaluation instruments have been used conventionally in different machine learning-based classification problem domains, there are numerous ones defined in the literature. This study reviews and describes performance instruments via formally defined novel concepts and clarifies the terminology. The study first highlights the issues in performance evaluation via a survey of 78 mobile-malware classification studies and reviews terminology.

Aim: To describe a deep convolutional generative adversarial networks (DCGAN) model which learns normal brain MRI from normal subjects than finds distortions such as a glioma from a test subject while performing a segmentation at the same time.

Material And Methods: MRIs of 300 healthy subjects were employed as training set. Additionally, test data were consisting anonymized T2-weigted MRIs of 27 healthy subjects and 27 HGG patients.

Aim: To propose a convolutional neural network (CNN) for the automatic detection of high-grade gliomas (HGGs) on T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans.

Material And Methods: A total of 3580 images obtained from 179 individuals were used for training and validation. After random rotation and vertical flip, training data was augmented by factor of 10 in each iteration.

This study presents a new approach based on artificial neural networks for generating one biometric feature (faces) from another (only fingerprints). An automatic and intelligent system was designed and developed to analyze the relationships among fingerprints and faces and also to model and to improve the existence of the relationships. The new proposed system is the first study that generates all parts of the face including eyebrows, eyes, nose, mouth, ears and face border from only fingerprints.

Objective: Eight different learning algorithms used for creating artificial neural network (ANN) models and the different ANN models in the prediction of coronary artery disease (CAD) are introduced.

Methods: This work was carried out as a retrospective case-control study. Overall, 124 consecutive patients who had been diagnosed with CAD by coronary angiography (at least 1 coronary stenosis > 50% in major epicardial arteries) were enrolled in the work.
