Background: Assurance of digital health interventions involves, amongst others, clinical validation, which requires large datasets to test the application in realistic clinical scenarios. Development of such datasets is time consuming and challenging in terms of maintaining patient anonymity and consent.
Objective: The development of synthetic datasets that maintain the statistical properties of the real datasets.
Method: An artificial neural network based, generative adversarial network was implemented and trained, using numerical and categorical variables, including ICD-9 codes from the MIMIC III dataset, to produce a synthetic dataset.
Results: The synthetic dataset, exhibits a correlation matrix highly similar to the real dataset, good Jaccard similarity and passing the KS test.
Conclusions: The proof of concept was successful with the approach being promising for further work.

To decrease the number of chronic kidney disease (CKD), early diagnosis of diabetic kidney disease is required. We performed invariant information clustering (IIC)-based clustering on glomerular images obtained from nephrectomized kidneys of patients with and without diabetes. We also used visualizing techniques (gradient-weighted class activation mapping (Grad-CAM) and generative adversarial networks (GAN)) to identify the novel and early pathological changes on light microscopy in diabetic nephropathy.

Diffusion models, variational autoencoders, and generative adversarial networks (GANs) are three common types of generative artificial intelligence models for image generation. Among these, GANs are the most frequently used for medical image generation and are often employed for data augmentation in various studies. However, due to the adversarial nature of GANs, where the generator and discriminator compete against each other, the training process can sometimes end with the model unable to generate meaningful images or even producing noise.

The disease affects the optic nerve and represents the principle reasons of irreversible vision loss, mostly asymptomatic and uncontrolled. Consequently, early and accurate diagnosis is critical to prevent or reduce its effect, however, conventional diagnostic techniques often fail to provide concrete results. In this regard, we present a new approach built on Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) and MobileNetV2 pretrained architecture for diagnosing glaucoma.

This dataset is generated from real-time simulations conducted in MATLAB/Simscape, focusing on the impact of smart noise signals on battery energy storage systems (BESS). Using Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) agent known as Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO), noise signals in the form of subtle millivolt and milliampere variations are strategically created to represent realistic cases of False Data Injection Attacks (FDIA). These signals are designed to disrupt the State of Charge (SoC) and State of Health (SoH) estimation blocks within Unscented Kalman Filters (UKF).
