Purpose: The objective of this research was to investigate the efficacy of various parameter combinations of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) models, namely MobileNet and DenseNet121, and different input image resolutions (REZs) ranging from 64×64 to 512×512 pixels, for diagnosing breast cancer.

Materials And Methods: During the period of June 2015 to November 2020, two hospitals were involved in the collection of two-dimensional ultrasound breast images for this retrospective multicenter study. The diagnostic performance of the computer models MobileNet and DenseNet 121 was compared at different resolutions.

Results: The results showed that MobileNet had the best breast cancer diagnosis performance at 320×320pixel REZ and DenseNet121 had the best breast cancer diagnosis performance at 448×448pixel REZ.

Conclusion: Our study reveals a significant correlation between image resolution and breast cancer diagnosis accuracy. Through the comparison of MobileNet and DenseNet121, it is highlighted that lightweight neural networks (LW-CNNs) can achieve model performance similar to or even slightly better than large neural networks models (HW-CNNs) in ultrasound images, and LW-CNNs' prediction time per image is lower.

Current neural network models of primate vision focus on replicating overall levels of behavioral accuracy, often neglecting perceptual decisions' rich, dynamic nature. Here, we introduce a novel computational framework to model the dynamics of human behavioral choices by learning to align the temporal dynamics of a recurrent neural network (RNN) to human reaction times (RTs). We describe an approximation that allows us to constrain the number of time steps an RNN takes to solve a task with human RTs.

Giant cell arteritis (GCA), a systemic vasculitis affecting large and medium-sized arteries, poses significant diagnostic and management challenges, particularly in preventing irreversible complications like vision loss. Recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, including machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL), offer promising solutions to enhance diagnostic accuracy and optimize treatment strategies for GCA. This systematic review, conducted according to the PRISMA 2020 guidelines, synthesizes existing literature on AI applications in GCA care, with a focus on diagnostic accuracy, treatment outcomes, and predictive modeling.

Purpose: Drug repositioning, a strategy that repurposes already-approved drugs for novel therapeutic applications, provides a faster and more cost-effective alternative to traditional drug discovery. Network-based models have been adopted by many computational methodologies, especially those that use graph neural networks to predict drug-disease associations. However, these techniques frequently overlook the quality of the input network, which is a critical factor for achieving accurate predictions.

Machine learning approaches including deep learning models have shown promising performance in the automatic detection of Parkinson's disease. These approaches rely on different types of data with voice recordings being the most used due to the convenient and non-invasive nature of data acquisition. Our group has successfully developed a novel approach that uses convolutional neural network with transfer learning to analyze spectrogram images of the sustained vowel /a/ to identify people with Parkinson's disease.
