    New Artificial Intelligence Study Results Reported from Oslo Metropolitan University [Navigating Uncertainties of Introducing Artificial Intelligence (Ai) In Healthcare: the Role of a Norwegian Network of Professionals]

    32-33页
    查看更多>>摘要:By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News – Data detailed on Artificial Intelligence have been presented. According to news reporting from Oslo, Norway, by NewsRx editors, the research stated, “Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies are expected to solve pressing challenges in healthcare services worldwide. However, the current state of introducing AI is characterised by several issues complicating and delaying their deployments.” The news correspondents obtained a quote from the research from Oslo Metropolitan University, “These issues concern topics such as ethics, regulations, data access, human trust, and limited evidence of AI technologies in real-world clinical settings. They further encompass uncertainties, for instance, whether AI technologies will ensure equal and safe patient treatment or whether the AI results will be accurate and transparent enough to establish user trust. Collective efforts by actors from different backgrounds and affiliations are required to navigate this complex landscape. This article explores the role of such collective efforts by investigating how an informally established network of professionals works to enable AI in the Norwegian public healthcare services. The study takes a qualitative longitudinal case study approach and is based on data from non-participant observations of digital meetings and interviews. The data are analysed by drawing on perspectives and concepts from Science and Technology Studies (STS) dealing with innovation and sociotechnical change, where collective efforts are conceptualised as actor mobilisation. The study finds that in the case of the ambiguous sociotechnical phenomenon of AI, some of the uncertainties related to the introduction of AI in healthcare may be reduced as more and more deployments occur, while others will prevail or emerge. Mobilising spokespersons representing actors not yet a part of the discussions, such as AI users or researchers studying AI technologies in use, can enable a ‘stronger’ hybrid knowledge production.” According to the news reporters, the research concluded: “This hybrid knowledge is essential to identify, mitigate and monitor existing and emerging uncertainties, thereby ensuring sustainable AI deployments.” This research has been peer-reviewed.

    查看更多>>摘要:By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News – New research on Central Nervous System Diseases and Conditions - Epilepsy is the subject of a report. According to news reporting originating in Xi’an, People’s Republic of China, by NewsRx journalists, research stated, “Electroencephalogram (EEG) has been widely utilized as a valuable assessment tool for diagnosing epilepsy in hospital settings. However, clinical diagnosis of patients with self-limited epilepsy with centrotemporal spikes (SeLECTS) is challenging due to the presence of similar abnormal discharges in EEG displays compared to other types of epilepsy (non-SeLECTS) patients.” The news reporters obtained a quote from the research from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, “To assist the diagnostic process of epilepsy, a comprehensive classification study utilizing machine learning or deep learning techniques is proposed. In this study, clinical EEG was collected from 33 patients diagnosed with either SeLECTS or non-SeLECTS, aged between 3 and 11 years. In the realm of classical machine learning, sharp wave features (including upslope, downslope, and width at half maximum) were extracted from the EEG data. These features were then combined with the random forest (RF) and extreme random forest (ERF) classifiers to differentiate between SeLECTS and non-SeLECTS. Additionally, deep learning was employed by directly inputting the EEG data into a deep residual network (ResNet) for classification. The classification results were evaluated based on accuracy, F1-score, area under the curve (AUC), and area under the precision-recall curve (AUPRC). Following a 10-fold cross-validation, the ERF classifier achieved an accuracy of 73.15 % when utilizing sharp wave feature extraction for classification. The F1- score obtained was 0.72, while the AUC and AUPRC values were 0.75 and 0.63, respectively. On the other hand, the ResNet model achieved a classification accuracy of 90.49 %, with an F1-score of 0.90. The AUC and AUPRC values for ResNet were found to be 0.96 and 0.92, respectively. These results highlighted the significant potential of deep learning methods in SeLECTS classification research, owing to their high accuracy.”

    Department of Cardiology Reports Findings in Artificial Intelligence (Single-lead electrocardiogram Artificial Intelligence model with risk factors detects atrial fibrillation during sinus rhythm)

    34-35页
    查看更多>>摘要:By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News – New research on Artificial Intelligence is the subject of a report. According to news reporting from Roeselare, Belgium, by NewsRx journalists, research stated, “Guidelines recommend oppor- tunistic screening for atrial fibrillation (AF), using a 30 s single-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) recorded by a wearable device. Since many patients have paroxysmal AF, identification of patients at high risk presenting with sinus rhythm (SR) may increase the yield of subsequent long-term cardiac monitoring.” The news correspondents obtained a quote from the research from the Department of Cardiology, “The aim is to evaluate an AI-algorithm trained on 10 s single-lead ECG with or without risk factors to predict AF. This retrospective study used 13 479 ECGs from AF patients in SR around the time of diagnosis and 53 916 age- and sex-matched control ECGs, augmented with 17 risk factors extracted from electronic health records. AI models were trained and compared using 1- or 12-lead ECGs, with or without risk factors. Model bias was evaluated by age- and sex-stratification of results. Random forest models identified the most relevant risk factors. The single-lead model achieved an area under the curve of 0.74, which increased to 0.76 by adding six risk factors (95% confidence interval: 0.74-0.79). This model matched the performance of a 12-lead model. Results are stable for both sexes, over ages ranging from 40 to 90 years. Out of 17 clinical variables, 6 were sufficient for optimal accuracy of the model: hypertension, heart failure, valvular disease, history of myocardial infarction, age, and sex. An AI model using a single-lead SR ECG and six risk factors can identify patients with concurrent AF with similar accuracy as a 12-lead ECG-AI model.” According to the news reporters, the research concluded: “An age- and sex-matched data set leads to an unbiased model with consistent predictions across age groups.” This research has been peer-reviewed.

According to news reporting from Jharkhand, India, by NewsRx journalists, research stated, “Fluorescent organic dyes are widely used in various fields, including science and technology, research and development, medicine, and drug delivery. Multitudinous attempts have been made by experimentalists to develop such fluorescent organic dyes with the desired Stokes shift property at negligible cost and time.” Funders for this research include CSIR HRDG in India, CSIR NET-JRF fellowship. The news correspondents obtained a quote from the research from the National Institute of Technology Jamshedpur, “For quickly and accurately predicting the Stokes shift property of fluorescent organic dye, we proposed eight hybrid models based on the combination of nine single machine-learning models. To fulfill the objective, we considered a dataset of 3066 fluorescent organic materials and evaluated the performance of each model using three evaluation parameters: mean absolute error (MAE), root mean squared error (RMSE), and the coefficient of determination (R2). The hybrid cascade model of Extreme Gradient Boosting Regression and Light Gradient Boosting Machine Regression (XGBR + LGBMR) performed best for Stokes shift prediction, with MAE of 13.83 nm, RMSE of 19.95 nm, and R2 of 86.18 %. The prediction performance of all the undertaken models was validated by the experimental data of four xanthene dyes (Rh- 19, Rh-B, Rh-6G, and Rh-110). In this regard, the XGBR + DTR (Extreme Gradient Boosting Regression + Decision Tree Regression) model was the best performer, with errors ranging from 5 to 13 nm for four dyes. The resultant errors are much smaller than the recently re-ported synthesized material with an error of 30 nm.” According to the news reporters, the research concluded: “The proposed models allow for rapid and cost-effective screening of a wide range of fluorescent organic dyes, which assists the researchers in gaining prior knowl-edge of materials and accelerates the discovery of new materials.” This research has been peer-reviewed.
