Objective: To evaluate the evidence of artificial neural network (NNs) techniques in diagnosing ischemic stroke (IS) in adults.
Methods: The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) was utilized as a guideline for this review. PubMed, MEDLINE, Web of Science, and CINAHL Plus Full Text were searched to identify studies published between 2018 and 2022, reporting using NNs in IS diagnosis. The Critical Appraisal Checklist for Diagnostic Test Accuracy Studies was adopted to evaluate the included studies.
Results: Nine studies were included in this systematic review. Non-contrast computed tomography (NCCT) (n = 4 studies, 26.67%) and computed tomography angiography (CTA) (n = 4 studies, 26.67%) are among the most common features. Five algorithms were used in the included studies. Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (DCNNs) were commonly used for IS diagnosis (n = 3 studies, 33.33%). Other algorithms including three-dimensional convolutional neural networks (3D-CNNs) (n = 2 studies, 22.22%), two-stage deep convolutional neural networks (Two-stage DCNNs) (n = 2 studies, 22.22%), the local higher-order singular value decomposition denoising algorithm (GL-HOSVD) (n = 1 study, 11.11%), and a new deconvolution network model based on deep learning (AD-CNNnet) (n = 1 study, 11.11%) were also utilized for the diagnosis of IS.
Conclusion: The number of studies ensuring the effectiveness of NNs algorithms in IS diagnosis has increased. Still, more feasibility and cost-effectiveness evaluations are needed to support the implementation of NNs in IS diagnosis in clinical settings.

This paper systematically evaluates saliency methods as explainability tools for convolutional neural networks trained to diagnose glaucoma using simplified eye fundus images that contain only disc and cup outlines. These simplified images, a methodological novelty, were used to relate features highlighted in the saliency maps to the geometrical clues that experts consider in glaucoma diagnosis. Despite their simplicity, these images retained sufficient information for accurate classification, with balanced accuracies ranging from 0.

Traditional machine learning methods face significant challenges in predicting the properties of highly symmetric molecules. In this study, we developed a machine learning model based on graph neural networks (GNNs) to accurately and swiftly predict the thermodynamic and photochemical properties of fullerenols, such as C(OH) ( = 1 to 30). First, we established a global method for generating fullerenol isomers through isomer fingerprinting, which can generate all possible isomers or produce diverse structural types on demand.

In this comprehensive analysis of Chile's air quality dynamics spanning 2016 to 2021, the utilization of data from the National Air Quality Information System (SINCA) and its network of monitoring stations was undertaken. Quintero, Puchuncaví, and Coyhaique were the focal points of this study, with the primary objective being the construction of predictive models for sulfur dioxide (SO2), fine particulate matter (PM2.5), and coarse particulate matter (PM10).

Significance: Optimal meibography utilization and interpretation are hindered due to poor lid presentation, blurry images, or image artifacts and the challenges of applying clinical grading scales. These results, using the largest image dataset analyzed to date, demonstrate development of algorithms that provide standardized, real-time inference that addresses all of these limitations.
Purpose: This study aimed to develop and validate an algorithmic pipeline to automate and standardize meibomian gland absence assessment and interpretation.
