Background:Within the last decade, rapid development of artificial neural networks and machine reading programs and their introduction into medical practice is reported [1,2,3]. Recently, an innovative program, based on the artificial intelligence (AI) technologies (a neural network and machine reading) that analyses knee X-ray images for determining the radiographic stage of OA was created. It was launched on the Osteoscan.ru website and is available for use by patients and doctors.Objectives:to validate the system ability to accurately stage OA through machine interpretation of standard knee radiographs.Methods:Initially, 1300 x-rays of both knee joints where used to teach the neural network. Of these, 350 were presented in the form of film scans, 950 in the DICOM format.The accuracy of the system in recognition of OA stage by knee radiographs was evaluated on a quality control sample of 130 cases (of all 1300). Independently, the radiographs were assessed by certified radiologists (considered the “gold standard”) and the System.Results:In 124 out of 130 cases the conclusion of a specialist and the System was the same, which represents 95.4% predictive power. Coincidence or discrepancy is a qualitative attribute, so, the accuracy of the estimation was calculated. Assuming a discrepancy of 0, and coincidence - of 1, µ = 0,954, the standard error sp= 1.8%. It can be concluded that in 95% of cases the accuracy of the system assessment will be in the range from 91.8% to 99%.Conclusion:Osteosan is a program developed on the base of AI technologies, analyzes radiographic images of the knee joints for determining OA stage. It provides high accuracy in OA stage determining by assessing knee radiographs, in 95% of cases, the accuracy of the system varies from 91.8% to 99%.References:[1]Fischl B, Salat DH, van der Kouwe AJ, Makris N, Ségonne F, Quinn BT, Dale AM.

Abstract The global COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted patient care delivery in healthcare systems world-wide. For healthcare providers to better allocate their resources and improve the care for patients with severe disease, it is valuable to be able to identify those patients with COVID-19 who are at higher risk for clinical complications. This may help to optimize clinical workflow and more efficiently allocate scarce medical resources. To this end, medical imaging shows great potential and artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms have been developed to assist in diagnosing and risk stratifying COVID-19 patients. However, despite the rapid development of numerous AI models, these models cannot be clinically useful unless they can be deployed in real-world environments in real-time on clinical data. Here, we propose an end-to-end AI hospital-deployment architecture for COVID-19 medical imaging algorithms in hospitals. We have successfully implemented this system at our institution and it has been used in prospective clinical validation of a deep learning algorithm potentially useful for triaging of patients with COVID-19. We demonstrate that many orchestration processes are required before AI inference can be performed on a radiology studies in real-time with the AI model being just one of the components that make up the AI deployment system. We also highlight that failure of any one of these processes can adversely affect the model's performance.

ABSTRACTWe report a new approach using artificial intelligence to study and classify the severity of COVID-19 using 1208 chest X-rays (CXRs) of 396 COVID-19 patients obtained through the course of disease at Emory Healthcare affiliated hospitals (Atlanta, GA, USA). Using a two-stage transfer learning technique to train a convolutional neural network (CNN), we show that the algorithm is able to classify four classes of disease severity (normal, mild, moderate, and severe) with average area under curve (AUC) of 0.93. In addition, we show that the outputs of different layers of the CNN under dominant filters provide valuable insight about the subtle patterns in the CXRs, which can improve the accuracy in the reading of CXRs by a radiologist. Finally, we show that our approach can be used for studying the disease progression in single patients and its influencing factors. The results suggest that our technique can form the foundation of a more concrete clinical model to predict the evolution of COVID-19 severity and the efficacy of different treatments for each patient through using CXRs and clinical data in early stages. This will be essential in dealing with the upcoming waves of COVID-19 and optimizing resource allocation and treatment.

This study investigated whether parameters derived from hand motions of expert and novice surgeons accurately and objectively reflect laparoscopic surgical skill levels using an artificial intelligence system consisting of a three-layer chaos neural network. Sixty-seven surgeons (23 experts and 44 novices) performed a laparoscopic skill assessment task while their hand motions were recorded using a magnetic tracking sensor. Eight parameters evaluated as measures of skill in a previous study were used as inputs to the neural network. Optimization of the neural network was achieved after seven trials with a training dataset of 38 surgeons, with a correct judgment ratio of 0.99. The neural network that prospectively worked with the remaining 29 surgeons had a correct judgment rate of 79% for distinguishing between expert and novice surgeons. In conclusion, our artificial intelligence system distinguished between expert and novice surgeons among surgeons with unknown skill levels.

The modern capabilities of computers have returned interest in artificial intelligence technologies. A particular area of application of these technologies is pattern recognition, which can be applied to the traditional forensic task – identification of signs of forgery (imitation) of a signature. The results of forgery are differentiated into three types: auto-forgery, simple and skilled forgeries. Only skilled forgeries are considered in this study. The online and offline approaches to the study of signatures and other handwriting material are described. The developed artificial intelligence system based on an artificial neural network refers to the offline type of signature recognition – that is, it is focused on working exclusively with the consequences of the signature – its graphic image. The content and principles of the formation of a hypothesis for the development of an artificial intelligence system are described with a combination of humanitarian (legal) knowledge and natural-technical knowledge. At the initial stage of the study, in order to develop an experimental-applied artificial intelligence system based on an artificial neural network focused on identifying forged signatures, 127 people were questioned in order to identify a person's ability to detect fake signatures. It was found that under experimental conditions the probability of a correct determination of the originality or forgery of the presented signature for the respondent is on average 69.29 %. Accordingly, this value can be used as a threshold for determining the effectiveness of the developed artificial intelligence system. In the process of preparing the dataset (an array for training and verification of its results) of the system in terms of fraudulent signatures, some forensically significant features were revealed, associated with the psychological and anatomical features of the person performing the forgery, both known to criminalistics and new ones. It is emphasized that the joint development of artificial intelligence systems by the methods of computer science and criminalistics can generate additional results that may be useful outside the scope of the research tasks.

Artificial intelligence has many branches of image processing-based applications in terms of classification and identification, error back-propagation neural network is a great match for such applications as long as linear vector quantization (LVQ) and pattern recognition is another great match for recognition of digital images based on their features. The dataset used in this paper are gel electrophoresis images where 6 features had been extracted from the images and used as input to a neural network for learning and then checked for recognition purposed and the system managed to recognize all the 6 images. Six features had been used: average, standard deviation, smoothness, skewness, uniformity, and entropy. A tiny error rate where allowed in the recognition program to cover the variation of the dataset and the test data (gel-electrophoresis images). The proposed system had successfully managed to identify all of the learned data in both LVQ and error-back-propagation. Error-back-propagation proved itself as a great tool in terms of learning time compared with LVQ, which was very slow in terms of learning time and recognition.
