Can we predict if an early stage cancer patient is at high risk of developing distant metastasis and what clinicopathological factors are associated with such a risk? In this paper, we propose a ranking based censoring-aware machine…
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a serious disease and has a high recurrence rate after the surgery. Recently, many machine learning methods have been proposed for recurrence prediction. The methods using gene data have high prediction…
Melanoma is a type of skin cancer developed from melanocytes. It is one of the most lethal types of cancer, accounting for approximately 75% of skin cancer deaths. Late stage melanoma is very difficult to treat, since the cancer cells are…
Lung cancer stands as the preeminent cause of cancer-related mortality globally. Prompt and precise diagnosis, coupled with effective treatment, is imperative to reduce the fatality rates associated with this formidable disease. This study…
This work proposes a two-step method to enhance disease risk estimation in small areas by integrating spatiotemporal cluster detection within a Bayesian hierarchical spatiotemporal model. First, we introduce an efficient…
Background and Purpose: Convolutional neural network is widely used for image recognition in the medical area at nowadays. However, overall accuracy in predicting lung tumor is low and the processing time is high as the error occurred while…
Lung cancer is the number one cause of cancer deaths. Many early stage lung cancer patients have resectable tumors; however, their cardiopulmonary function needs to be properly evaluated before they are deemed operative candidates.…
Breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death among women worldwide. Nevertheless, it is also one of the most treatable malignances if detected early. Screening for breast cancer with digital mammography (DM) has been widely…
In this paper, we describe a dataset relating to cellular and physical conditions of patients who are operated upon to remove colorectal tumours. This data provides a unique insight into immunological status at the point of tumour removal,…
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death and early diagnosis is associated with a positive prognosis. Chest X-ray (CXR) provides an inexpensive imaging mode for lung cancer diagnosis. Suspicious nodules are difficult to distinguish…
Pulmonary pathologies are a significant global health concern, often leading to fatal outcomes if not diagnosed and treated promptly. Chest radiography serves as a primary diagnostic tool, but the availability of experienced radiologists…
In the current technological era, the medical profession has emerged as one of the researchers' favorite subject areas, and cancer is one of them. Because there is now no effective treatment for this illness, it is a matter of concern. Only…
The diagnosed cases of Breast cancer is increasing annually and unfortunately getting converted into a high mortality rate. Cancer, at the early stages, is hard to detect because the malicious cells show similar properties (density) as…
Risk stratification (characterization) of tumors from radiology images can be more accurate and faster with computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) tools. Tumor characterization through such tools can also enable non-invasive cancer staging,…
Spectral clustering has shown a superior performance in analyzing the cluster structure. However, its computational complexity limits its application in analyzing large-scale data. To address this problem, many low-rank matrix approximating…
Lung nodule classification is a class imbalanced problem because nodules are found with much lower frequency than non-nodules. In the class imbalanced problem, conventional classifiers tend to be overwhelmed by the majority class and ignore…
Sensitivity analysis is an effective tool for systematically identifying specific perturbations in parameters that have significant effects on the behavior of a given biosystem, at the scale investigated. In this work, using a…
Precise prognostic stratification of colorectal cancer (CRC) remains a major clinical challenge due to its high heterogeneity. The conventional TNM staging system is inadequate for personalized medicine. We aimed to develop and validate a…
Recent tumor genome sequencing confirmed that one tumor often consists of multiple cell subpopulations (clones) which bear different, but related, genetic profiles such as mutation and copy number variation profiles. Thus far, one tumor has…
Pathology slides of lung malignancies are classified using resource-frugal convolution neural networks (CNNs) that may be deployed on mobile devices. In particular, the challenging task of distinguishing adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and…
