Cancer prognosis and survival outcome predictions are crucial for therapeutic response estimation and for stratifying patients into various treatment groups. Medical domains concerned with cancer prognosis are abundant with multiple…
Massive sized survival datasets are becoming increasingly prevalent with the development of the healthcare industry. Such datasets pose computational challenges unprecedented in traditional survival analysis use-cases. A popular way for…
Many diseases are considered to be closely related to the changes in the gut microbial community, including colorectal cancer (CRC), which is one of the most common cancers in the world. The diagnostic classification and etiological…
Heart failure (HF) is a critical condition in which the accurate prediction of mortality plays a vital role in guiding patient management decisions. However, clinical datasets used for mortality prediction in HF often suffer from an…
Background: Effective allocation of limited donor lungs in cystic fibrosis (CF) requires accurate survival predictions, so that high-risk patients may be prioritized for transplantation. In practice, decisions about allocation are made…
Despite the fact that cancer survivability rates vary greatly between stages, traditional survival prediction models have frequently been trained and assessed using examples from all combined phases of the disease. This method may result in…
Survival outcome assessment is challenging and inherently associated with multiple clinical factors (e.g., imaging and genomics biomarkers) in cancer. Enabling multimodal analytics promises to reveal novel predictive patterns of patient…
This thesis develops computational methods in similarity-preserving hashing, classification, and cancer genomics. Standard space partitioning-based hashing relies on Binary Search Trees (BSTs), but their exponential growth and sparsity…
Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, making the development of rapid, minimally invasive, label-free and scalable diagnostic strategies a major challenge in modern oncology. In this context, spectroscopic liquid biopsy…
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is among the top three malignant tumor types in terms of morbidity and mortality. Histopathological images are the gold standard for diagnosing colon cancer. Cellular nuclei instance segmentation and classification,…
We develop a neural network model to classify liver cancer patients into high-risk and low-risk groups using genomic data. Our approach provides a novel technique to classify big data sets using neural network models. We preprocess the data…
Precision oncology aims to prescribe the optimal cancer treatment to the right patients, maximizing therapeutic benefits. However, identifying patient subgroups that may benefit more from experimental cancer treatments based on randomized…
Prediction of Overall Survival (OS) of brain cancer patients from multi-modal MRI is a challenging field of research. Most of the existing literature on survival prediction is based on Radiomic features, which does not consider either…
Cerebral stroke, the second most substantial cause of death universally, has been a primary public health concern over the last few years. With the help of machine learning techniques, early detection of various stroke alerts is accessible,…
In routine colorectal cancer management, histologic samples stained with hematoxylin and eosin are commonly used. Nonetheless, their potential for defining objective biomarkers for patient stratification and treatment selection is still…
Brain tumor is one of the most high-risk cancers which causes the 5-year survival rate of only about 36%. Accurate diagnosis of brain tumor is critical for the treatment planning. However, complete data are not always available in clinical…
In this paper, we use partially rank-ordered set (PROS) sampling design with multiple concomitants in a breast cancer study and propose a method to estimate the proportion of patients with malignant (cancerous) breast tumours in a given…
Patients with metastatic breast cancer (mBC) undergo repeated computed tomography (CT) imaging during treatment to monitor disease progression. Accurate longitudinal tracking of individual lesions across scans from multiple radiologists is…
Non-parametric maximum likelihood estimation encompasses a group of classic methods to estimate distribution-associated functions from potentially censored and truncated data, with extensive applications in survival analysis. These methods,…
In this study, we present a hybrid CNN-RNN approach to investigate long-term survival of subjects in a lung cancer screening study. Subjects who died of cardiovascular and respiratory causes were identified whereby the CNN model was used to…
