OBJECTIVE Little is known about the efficacy of using artificial intelligence to identify laryngeal carcinoma from images of vocal lesions taken in different hospitals with multiple laryngoscope systems. This multicenter study was aimed to establish an artificial intelligence system and provide a reliable auxiliary tool to screen for laryngeal carcinoma. Study Design: Multicentre case-control study Setting: Six tertiary care centers Participants: The laryngoscopy images were collected from 2179 patients with vocal lesions. Outcome Measures: An automatic detection system of laryngeal carcinoma was established based on Faster R-CNN, which was used to distinguish vocal malignant and benign lesions in 2179 laryngoscopy images acquired from 6 hospitals with 5 types of laryngoscopy systems. Pathology was the gold standard to identify malignant and benign vocal lesions. Results: Among 89 cases of the malignant group, the classifier was able to evaluate the laryngeal carcinoma in 66 patients (74.16%, sensitivity), while the classifier was able to assess the benign laryngeal lesion in 503 cases among 640 cases of the benign group (78.59%, specificity). Furthermore, the CNN-based classifier achieved an overall accuracy of 78.05% with a 95.63% negative prediction for the testing dataset. Conclusion: This automatic diagnostic system has the potential to assist clinical laryngeal carcinoma diagnosis, which may improve and standardize the diagnostic capacity of endoscopists using different laryngoscopes.

Abstract CONTEXT Thyrotoxic periodic paralysis (TPP) characterized by acute weakness, hypokalemia and hyperthyroidism is a medical emergency with a great challenge in early diagnosis since most TPP patients do not have overt symptoms. OBJECTIVE To assess artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted electrocardiography (ECG) combined with routine laboratory data in the early diagnosis of TPP. METHODS A deep learning model (DLM) based on ECG12Net, an 82-layer convolutional neural network, was constructed to detect hypokalemia and hyperthyroidism. The development cohort consisted of 39 ECGs from patients with TPP and 502 ECGs of hypokalemic control; the validation cohort consisted of 11 ECGs of TPP and 36 ECGs of non-TPP with weakness. The AI-ECG based TPP diagnostic process was then consecutively evaluated in 22 male patients with TTP-like features. RESULTS In the validation cohort, the DLM-based ECG system detected all cases of hypokalemia in TPP patients with a mean absolute error of 0.26 mEq/L and diagnosed TPP with an area under curve (AUC) of ~80%, surpassing the best standard ECG parameter (AUC=0.7285 for the QR interval). Combining the AI predictions with the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and serum chloride (Cl -) boosted the diagnostic accuracy of the algorithm to AUC 0.986. In the prospective study, the integrated AI and routine laboratory diagnostic system had a PPV of 100% and F-measure 87.5%. CONCLUSIONS An AI-ECG system reliably identifies hypokalemia in patients with paralysis and integration with routine blood chemistries provides valuable decision support for the early diagnosis of TPP.

Dissolved gas analysis (DGA) has been widely used in various scenarios of power transformers’ online monitoring and diagnoses. However, the diagnostic accuracy of traditional DGA methods still leaves much room for improvement. In this context, numerous new DGA diagnostic models that combine artificial intelligence with traditional methods have emerged. In this paper, a new DGA artificial intelligent diagnostic system is proposed. There are two modules that make up the diagnosis system. The two modules are the optimal feature combination (OFC) selection module based on 3-stage GA–SA–SVM and the ABC–SVM fault diagnosis module. The diagnosis system has been completely realized and embodied in its outstanding performances in diagnostic accuracy, reliability, and efficiency. Comparing the result with other artificial intelligence diagnostic methods, the new diagnostic system proposed in this paper performed superiorly.

As a respiratory infection, pneumonia has gained great attention from countries all over the world for its strong spreading and relatively high mortality. For pneumonia, early detection and treatment will reduce its mortality rate significantly. Currently, X-ray diagnosis is recognized as a relatively effective method. The visual analysis of a patient’s X-ray chest radiograph by an experienced doctor takes about 5 to 15 minutes. When cases are concentrated, this will undoubtedly put tremendous pressure on the doctor’s clinical diagnosis. Therefore, relying on the naked eye of the imaging doctor has very low efficiency. Hence, the use of artificial intelligence for clinical image diagnosis of pneumonia is a necessary thing. In addition, artificial intelligence recognition is very fast, and the convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have achieved better performance than human beings in terms of image identification. Therefore, we used the dataset which has chest X-ray images for classification made available by Kaggle with a total of 5216 train and 624 test images, with 2 classes as normal and pneumonia. We performed studies using five mainstream network algorithms to classify these diseases in the dataset and compared the results, from which we improved MobileNet’s network structure and achieved a higher accuracy rate than other methods. Furthermore, the improved MobileNet’s network could also extend to other areas for application.
