One of the factors that worry obstetricians the most is the method of delivery. In recent years, the rate of caesarean sections has steadily climbed and now exceeds the threshold advised by medical organizations. Obstetricians typically lack the tools they need to assess whether vaginal delivery or a caesarean delivery is more appropriate. In this work, we suggested a computerized decision-making process for deciding on the best birthing style. The data was collected from 101 pregnant subjects who were admitted to hospital in eastern India for delivery from January 2021 to September 2021.The data set had 101 instances & 11 variables. The response was a binary variable with "caesarean" & "vaginal" as the outputs. A deep neural network model (DNN) was developed by using train set with h2o package. The model was selected on the basis of AUC (Area under the Curve) & KS (Kolmogorov-Smirnov) score. The AUC, KS score for train set were 0.99, 0.98 respectively. The prediction error rates for caeseraen & vaginal classes in train data are 0.02 & 0.00 respectively. The results support the use of these algorithms in the creation of a clinical decision system to help gynaecologists choose the most appropriate delivery method.

Lymphadenopathy is associated with lymph node abnormal size or consistency due to many causes. We employed the deep convolutional neural network ResNet-34 to detect and classify CT images from patients with abdominal lymphadenopathy and healthy controls. We created a single database containing 1400 source CT images for patients with abdominal lymphadenopathy (n = 700) and healthy controls (n = 700).

Combination therapy, which synergistically enhances treatment efficacy and inhibits disease progression through the combined effects of multiple drugs, has emerged as a mainstream approach for treating complex diseases and alleviating symptoms. However, drug-drug interactions (DDIs) can sometimes lead to adverse reactions, potentially endangering lives. Therefore, developing efficient and accurate DDI prediction methods is crucial for elucidating drug mechanisms and preventing side effects.

EEG involves recording electrical activity generated by the brain through electrodes placed on the scalp. Imagined speech classification has emerged as an essential area of research in brain-computer interfaces (BCIs). Despite significant advances, accurately classifying imagined speech signals remains challenging due to their complex and non-stationary nature.

Liver malignancies, particularly hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), pose a formidable global health challenge. Conventional diagnostic techniques frequently fall short in precision, especially at advanced HCC stages. In response, we have developed a novel diagnostic strategy that integrates hyperspectral imaging with deep learning.

Background/purpose: Oral mucosal lesions are associated with a variety of pathological conditions. Most deep-learning-based convolutional neural network (CNN) systems for computer-aided diagnosis of oral lesions have typically concentrated on determining limited aspects of differential diagnosis. This study aimed to develop a CNN-based diagnostic model capable of classifying clinical photographs of oral ulcerative and associated lesions into five different diagnoses, thereby assisting clinicians in making accurate differential diagnoses.
