Abstract Multiple Sclerosis (MS) poses significant health risks. Patients may face neurodegeneration, mobility issues, cognitive decline, and a reduced quality of life. Manual diagnosis by neurologists is prone to limitations, making AI-based classification crucial for early detection. Therefore, automated classification using Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques has a crucial role in addressing the limitations of manual classification and preventing the development of MS to advanced stages. This study developed hybrid systems integrating XGBoost (eXtreme Gradient Boosting) with multi-CNN (Convolutional Neural Networks) features based on Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) and Maximum Entropy Score-based Selection (MESbS) algorithms for early… More >

Abstract Detecting lung cancer early is crucial for improving survival rates, yet it remains a significant challenge due to many cases being diagnosed at advanced stages. This review aims to provide advances in epigenetics which have highlighted DNA methylation patterns as promising biomarkers for early detection, prognosis, and treatment response in lung cancer. Techniques like bisulfite conversion followed by PCR, digital droplet polymerase chain reaction, and next-generation sequencing are commonly used for detecting these methylation patterns, which occur early in the cancer development process and can be detected in non-invasive samples like blood and sputum. Key… More >

Abstract Globally, liver cancer ranks as the sixth most frequent malignancy cancer. The importance of early detection is undeniable, as liver cancer is the fifth most common disease in men and the ninth most common cancer in women. Recent advances in imaging, biomarker discovery, and genetic profiling have greatly enhanced the ability to diagnose liver cancer. Early identification is vital since liver cancer is often asymptomatic, making diagnosis difficult. Imaging techniques such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Computed Tomography (CT), and ultrasonography can be used to identify liver cancer once a sample of liver tissue is… More >

Abstract Lung cancer remains a major concern in modern oncology due to its high mortality rates and multifaceted origins, including hereditary factors and various clinical changes. It stands as the deadliest type of cancer and a significant cause of cancer-related deaths globally. Early diagnosis enables healthcare providers to administer appropriate treatment measures promptly and accurately, leading to improved prognosis and higher survival rates. The significant increase in both the incidence and mortality rates of lung cancer, particularly its ranking as the second most prevalent cancer among women worldwide, underscores the need for comprehensive research into efficient… More >

Abstract Colletotrichum kahawae (Coffee Berry Disease) spreads through spores that can be carried by wind, rain, and insects affecting coffee plantations, and causes 80% yield losses and poor-quality coffee beans. The deadly disease is hard to control because wind, rain, and insects carry spores. Colombian researchers utilized a deep learning system to identify CBD in coffee cherries at three growth stages and classify photographs of infected and uninfected cherries with 93% accuracy using a random forest method. If the dataset is too small and noisy, the algorithm may not learn data patterns and generate accurate predictions.… More >

Abstract Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodevelopmental impairment that results in a person’s behavior, thinking, and memory loss. The most common symptoms of AD are losing memory and early aging. In addition to these, there are several serious impacts of AD. However, the impact of AD can be mitigated by early-stage detection though it cannot be cured permanently. Early-stage detection is the most challenging task for controlling and mitigating the impact of AD. The study proposes a predictive model to detect AD in the initial phase based on machine learning and a deep learning approach to… More >

Abstract Damage detection is an important area with growing interest in mechanical and structural engineering. One of the critical issues in damage detection is how to determine indices sensitive to the structural damage and insensitive to the surrounding environmental variations. Current damage identification indices commonly focus on structural dynamic characteristics such as natural frequencies, mode shapes, and frequency responses. This study aimed at developing a technique based on energy Curvature Difference, power spectrum density, correlation-based index, load distribution factor, and neutral axis shift to assess the bridge deck condition. In addition to tracking energy and frequency More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract Sticking is the most serious cause of failure in complex drilling operations. In the present work a novel “early warning” method based on an artificial intelligence algorithm is proposed to overcome some of the known problems associated with existing sticking-identification technologies. The method is tested against a practical case study (Southern Sichuan shale gas drilling operations). It is shown that the twelve sets of sticking fault diagnostic results obtained from a simulation are all consistent with the actual downhole state; furthermore, the results from four groups of verification samples are also consistent with the actual More >

Abstract More than 500,000 patients are diagnosed with breast cancer annually. Authorities worldwide reported a death rate of 11.6% in 2018. Breast tumors are considered a fatal disease and primarily affect middle-aged women. Various approaches to identify and classify the disease using different technologies, such as deep learning and image segmentation, have been developed. Some of these methods reach 99% accuracy. However, boosting accuracy remains highly important as patients’ lives depend on early diagnosis and specified treatment plans. This paper presents a fully computerized method to detect and categorize tumor masses in the breast using two… More >

Abstract The precise diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease is critical for patient treatment, especially at the early stage, because awareness of the severity and progression risks lets patients take preventative actions before irreversible brain damage occurs. It is possible to gain a holistic view of Alzheimer’s disease staging by combining multiple data modalities, known as image fusion. In this paper, the study proposes the early detection of Alzheimer’s disease using different modalities of Alzheimer’s disease brain images. First, the preprocessing was performed on the data. Then, the data augmentation techniques are used to handle overfitting. Also, the… More >
