Abstract
Deep learning has revolutionised medical image analysis, offering the possibility of automated, efficient, and highly accurate diagnostic solutions. This article explores recent developments in deep learning techniques applied to medical imaging, including convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for classification and segmentation, recurrent neural networks (RNNs) for temporal analysis, autoencoders for feature extraction, and generative adversarial networks (GANs) for image synthesis and augmentation. Additionally, U-Net models for segmentation, vision transformers (ViTs) for global feature extraction, and hybrid models integrating multiple architectures are explored. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) process were used, and searches on PubMed, Google Scholar, and Scopus databases were conducted. The findings highlight key challenges such as data availability, interpretability, overfitting, and computational requirements. While deep learning has demonstrated significant potential in enhancing diagnostic accuracy across multiple medical imaging modalities-including MRI, CT, US, and X-ray-factors such as model trust, data privacy, and ethical considerations remain ongoing concerns. The study underscores the importance of integrating multimodal data, improving computational efficiency, and advancing explainability to facilitate broader clinical adoption. Future research directions emphasize optimising deep learning models for real-time applications, enhancing interpretability, and integrating deep learning with existing healthcare frameworks for improved patient outcomes.

Abstract
The recent COVID-19 outbreak has severely affected people around the world. There is a need of an efficient decision making tool to improve awareness about the spread of COVID-19 infections among the common public. An accurate and reliable neural network based tool for predicting confirmed, recovered and death cases of COVID-19 can be very helpful to the health consultants for taking appropriate actions to control the outbreak. This paper proposes a novel Nonlinear Autoregressive (NAR) Neural Network Time Series (NAR-NNTS) model for forecasting COVID-19 cases. This NAR-NNTS model is trained with Scaled Conjugate Gradient (SCG), Levenberg Marquardt (LM) and Bayesian Regularization (BR) training algorithms. The performance of the proposed model has been compared by using Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), Mean Square Error (MSE) and correlation co-efficient i.e. R-value. The results show that NAR-NNTS model trained with LM training algorithm performs better than other models for COVID-19 epidemiological data prediction.

Abstract
Accurate differentiation of intramedullary spinal cord tumors and inflammatory demyelinating lesions and their subtypes are warranted because of their overlapping characteristics at MRI but with different treatments and prognosis. The authors aimed to develop a pipeline for spinal cord lesion segmentation and classification using two-dimensional MultiResUNet and DenseNet121 networks based on T2-weighted images. A retrospective cohort of 490 patients (118 patients with astrocytoma, 130 with ependymoma, 101 with multiple sclerosis [MS], and 141 with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders [NMOSD]) was used for model development, and a prospective cohort of 157 patients (34 patients with astrocytoma, 45 with ependymoma, 33 with MS, and 45 with NMOSD) was used for model testing. In the test cohort, the model achieved Dice scores of 0.77, 0.80, 0.50, and 0.58 for segmentation of astrocytoma, ependymoma, MS, and NMOSD, respectively, against manual labeling. Accuracies of 96% (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve [AUC], 0.99), 82% (AUC, 0.90), and 79% (AUC, 0.85) were achieved for the classifications of tumor versus demyelinating lesion, astrocytoma versus ependymoma, and MS versus NMOSD, respectively. In a subset of radiologically difficult cases, the classifier showed an accuracy of 79%-95% (AUC, 0.78-0.97). The established deep learning pipeline for segmentation and classification of spinal cord lesions can support an accurate radiologic diagnosis. Supplemental material is available for this article. © RSNA, 2022 Keywords: Spinal Cord MRI, Astrocytoma, Ependymoma, Multiple Sclerosis, Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder, Deep Learning.

Big Data Analysis and Application of Liver Cancer Gene Sequence Based on Second-Generation Sequencing Technology. COMPUTATIONAL AND MATHEMATICAL METHODS IN MEDICINE 2022; 2022:4004130.

Abstract
In big data analysis with the rapid improvement of computer storage capacity and the rapid development of complex algorithms, the exponential growth of massive data has also made science and technology progress with each passing day. Based on omics data such as mRNA data, microRNA data, or DNA methylation data, this study uses traditional clustering methods such as kmeans, K-nearest neighbors, hierarchical clustering, affinity propagation, and nonnegative matrix decomposition to classify samples into categories, obtained: (1) The assumption that the attributes are independent of each other reduces the classification effect of the algorithm to a certain extent. According to the idea of multilevel grid, there is a one-to-one mapping from high-dimensional space to one-dimensional. The complexity is greatly simplified by encoding the one-dimensional grid of the hierarchical grid. The logic of the algorithm is relatively simple, and it also has a very stable classification efficiency. (2) Convert the two-dimensional representation of the data into the one-dimensional representation of the binary, realize the dimensionality reduction processing of the data, and improve the organization and storage efficiency of the data. The grid coding expresses the spatial position of the data, maintains the original organization method of the data, and does not make the abstract expression of the data object. (3) The data processing of nondiscrete and missing values provides a new opportunity for the identification of protein targets of small molecule therapy and obtains a better classification effect. (4) The comparison of the three models shows that Naive Bayes is the optimal model. Each iteration is composed of alternately expected steps and maximal steps and then identified and quantified by MS.

Abstract
Deep learning has shown outstanding efficiency in medical image segmentation. Segmentation of knee tissues is an important task for early diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with selecting variant features. Automated segmentation and feature extraction of knee tissues are desirable for faster and reliable analysis of large datasets and further diagnosis. In this paper a novel architecture called as Discrete-MultiResUNet, which is a combination of discrete wavelet transform (DWT) with MultiResUNet architecture is applied for feature extraction and segmentation, respectively. This hybrid architecture captures more prominent features from the knee magnetic resonance image efficiently with segmenting vital knee tissues. The hybrid model is evaluated on the knee MR dataset demonstrating outperforming performance compared with baseline models. The model achieves excellent segmentation performance accuracy of 96.77% with a dice coefficient of 98%.

Abstract
The unprompted patient’s and inimitable physician’s experience shared on online health communities (OHCs) contain a wealth of unexploited knowledge. Med Help and eHealth are some of the online health communities offering new insights and solutions to all health issues. Diabetes mellitus (DM), thyroid disorders and tuberculosis (TB) are chronic diseases increasing rapidly every year. As part of the project described in this article comments related to the diseases from Med Help were collected. The comments contain the patient and doctor discussions in an unstructured format. The sematic vision of the internet of things (IoT) plays a vital role in organizing the collected data. We pre-processed the data using standard natural language processing techniques and extracted the essential features of the words using the chi-squared test. After preprocessing the documents, we clustered them using the K-means++ algorithm, which is a popular centroid-based unsupervised iterative machine learning algorithm. A generative probabilistic model (LDA) was used to identify the essential topic in each cluster. This type of framework will empower the patients and doctors to identify the similarity and dissimilarity about the various diseases and important keywords among the diseases in the form of symptoms, medical tests and habits.
