Large-Scale Inference of Liver Fat with Neural Networks on UK Biobank Body MRI

We introduce SketchGNN , a convolutional graph neural network for semantic segmentation and labeling of freehand vector sketches. We treat an input stroke-based sketch as a graph with nodes representing the sampled points along input strokes and edges encoding the stroke structure information. To predict the per-node labels, our SketchGNN uses graph convolution and a static-dynamic branching network architecture to extract the features at three levels, i.e., point-level, stroke-level, and sketch-level. SketchGNN significantly improves the accuracy of the state-of-the-art methods for semantic sketch segmentation (by 11.2% in the pixel-based metric and 18.2% in the component-based metric over a large-scale challenging SPG dataset) and has magnitudes fewer parameters than both image-based and sequence-based methods.

Stochastic Input

The paper solves the problem of a decentralized adaptive state-feedback neural tracking control for a class of stochastic nonlinear high-order interconnected systems. Under the assumptions that the inverse dynamics of the subsystems are stochastic input-to-state stable (SISS) and for the controller design, Radial basis function (RBF) neural networks (NN) are used to cope with the packaged unknown system dynamics and stochastic uncertainties. Besides, the appropriate Lyapunov-Krosovskii functions and parameters are constructed for a class of large-scale high-order stochastic nonlinear strong interconnected systems with inverse dynamics. It has been proved that the actual controller can be designed so as to guarantee that all the signals in the closed-loop systems remain semi-globally uniformly ultimately bounded, and the tracking errors eventually converge in the small neighborhood of origin. Simulation example has been proposed to show the effectiveness of our results.

Deep learning models are efficient in learning the features that assist in understanding complex patterns precisely. This study proposed a computerized process of classifying skin disease through deep learning based MobileNet V2 and Long Short Term Memory (LSTM). The MobileNet V2 model proved to be efficient with a better accuracy that can work on lightweight computational devices. The proposed model is efficient in maintaining stateful information for precise predictions. A grey-level co-occurrence matrix is used for assessing the progress of diseased growth. The performance has been compared against other state-of-the-art models such as Fine-Tuned Neural Networks (FTNN), Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), Very Deep Convolutional Networks for Large-Scale Image Recognition developed by Visual Geometry Group (VGG), and convolutional neural network architecture that expanded with few changes. The HAM10000 dataset is used and the proposed method has outperformed other methods with more than 85% accuracy. Its robustness in recognizing the affected region much faster with almost 2× lesser computations than the conventional MobileNet model results in minimal computational efforts. Furthermore, a mobile application is designed for instant and proper action. It helps the patient and dermatologists identify the type of disease from the affected region’s image at the initial stage of the skin disease. These findings suggest that the proposed system can help general practitioners efficiently and effectively diagnose skin conditions, thereby reducing further complications and morbidity.
