Survival Prediction Using Transformer-Based Categorical Feature Representation in the Treatment of Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma.

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a common and aggressive subtype of lymphoma, and accurate survival prediction is crucial for treatment decisions. This study aims to develop a robust survival prediction strategy to integrate various risk factors effectively, including clinical risk factors and Deauville scores in positron-emission tomography/computed tomography at different treatment stages using a deep-learning-based approach. We conduct a multi-institutional study on 604 DLBCL patients' clinical data and validate the model on 220 patients from an independent institution.

A Review of Machine Learning and Deep Learning Approaches on Mental Health Diagnosis.

Combating mental illnesses such as depression and anxiety has become a global concern. As a result of the necessity for finding effective ways to battle these problems, machine learning approaches have been included in healthcare systems for the diagnosis and probable prediction of the treatment outcomes of mental health conditions. With the growing interest in machine and deep learning methods, analysis of existing work to guide future research directions is necessary.

Predicting progression of Alzheimer's disease using forward-to-backward bi-directional network with integrative imputation.

If left untreated, Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a leading cause of slowly progressive dementia. Therefore, it is critical to detect AD to prevent its progression. In this study, we propose a bidirectional progressive recurrent network with imputation (BiPro) that uses longitudinal data, including patient demographics and biomarkers of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), to forecast clinical diagnoses and phenotypic measurements at multiple timepoints.
