Mobile health apps are widely used for breast cancer detection using artificial intelligence algorithms, providing radiologists with second opinions and reducing false diagnoses. This study aims to develop an open-source mobile app named "BraNet" for 2D breast imaging segmentation and classification using deep learning algorithms. During the phase off-line, an SNGAN model was previously trained for synthetic image generation, and subsequently, these images were used to pre-trained SAM and ResNet18 segmentation and classification models.

This study aims to investigate the tunability of the related properties in reduced graphene oxide (rGO) for potential use in energy conversion, storage, and optoelectronic devices. To accomplish this, we scrutinized crucial parameters of the synthesis process such as reduction time and temperature.

Cancer treatment is expensive because of social and economic issues which force the patients to look for other alternatives. One such alternative treatment is ivermectin-based antiparasitic, which is commonly used in treating cattle.

Thus, deep learning algorithms are being used widely in cervical cancer diagnosis tools. In this study, we developed and preliminarily validated a model based on the Unet network plus SVM to classify cervical lesions on colposcopy images.
