Healthcare has profited from artificial intelligence’s revolution in many other areas of life. A few issues with the current architecture of the store-and-forward method of conventional telemedicine are that it requires a local health center with a dedicated staff, medical equipment to prepare patient reports, and long turnaround time for receiving a diagnosis and medication details from a medical expert in a main hospital, the cost of local health centers, and the requirement for a Wi-Fi connection. In this work, we present a new intelligent healthcare system built on cutting-edge technology such as deep learning and the Internet of Things (IoT). This system has the intelligence to use a medical decision support system to sense and process patient data by making use of adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (ANFIS). For those who live in rural places, this system offers an affordable solution.

Unlike the limitations of human interpretation, AI techniques can effectively identify subtle patterns in ECG signals. This makes ECG a powerful non-invasive tool for assessing cardiovascular health. Existing methods for classifying ECG signals while valuable, they still struggle to achieve both high sensitivity and specificity. This limitation hinders their ability to deliver accurate and timely diagnoses for cardiac conditions. These shortcomings emphasize the need for more effective techniques to improve the precision of ECG signal classification. In response to these challenges, this study introduces a novel approach, using an ensemble methodology, a machine learning technique to enhance the precision of ECG classification through the fusion of signal and wave features. The proposed methodology addresses two key challenges: the transformation of paper ECG recordings into one-dimensional digital signals amenable to machine learning algorithms and the automated extraction of diagnostically significant features including the P wave, QRS complex, and T wave. Validation of the proposed methodology encompasses a comprehensive evaluation on a heterogeneous dataset comprising real-world and publicly available online resources. Noteworthy aspects of the evaluation include considerations of both intra-patient variations and inter-patient discrepancies, thus reflecting real-world complexities. Notably, in the realm of machine learning, the study employs ensemble algorithms and a soft voting classifier to enhance classification accuracy and robustness.

This study assesses the digital transformation readiness of 75 local clinics in Northwest Vietnam and investigates the impact of influential factors on this readiness. The study design involved collecting responses from clinic heads or designated representatives through a web-based survey. The sample size comprised 75 local clinics in Northwest Vietnam. Multiple linear regressions were utilised to examine the impact of influential factors on the clinics’ digital transformation readiness. Findings indicate a significant readiness gap among the surveyed clinics, with observed scores falling below the maximum achievable score of 290. Most clinics scored between 63.5 and 116, highlighting substantial room for improvement in digital preparedness. The study unveiled significant relationships between digital readiness and clinic attributes. Negative correlations included clinic head age and reliance on e-wallets. Positive associations included seniority, social media engagement, and clinic characteristics like education and technology use. The regression results highlight positive associations with clinic head seniority, clinic social accounts, personnel using smart devices, and online patient record integration. Conversely, negative associations were noted with clinic head age and e-wallet usage. The findings stress targeted support for older clinic leaders in digital adaptation, highlight experienced leadership’s role, note distractions from financial technologies, emphasise social media’s digital readiness impact, and stress technological adoption’s importance, plus digital record-keeping benefits for clinics and patient care.</p>","PeriodicalId":14138,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information Technology","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142184716","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to the dynamic and heterogeneous nature of IoT devices and networks, we propose a novel approach for attack detection in IoT environments by combining two modifications based on the Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS). For the efficient extraction of features from input datasets, we use a Relational Auto Encoder (RAE) Network, followed by an enhanced version of the ANFIS model. ANFIS parameters have been optimized to use Gaussian kernel membership functions and the Enhanced Osprey optimization algorithm (EOOA) has been used to optimize initial ANFIS parameters. As part of the experimental analysis, two sets of datasets are used; these are NSL-KDD 99 and UNSW-NB15 datasets, which contain different kinds of attack labels such as DoS, probing, U2R, and R2L attacks.

Therefore, in this paper, an automatic lung and colon cancer classification model based on a machine learning algorithm is proposed. Initially, the histopathological images are collected from the dataset. Then, to reduce the noise present in the input image, we apply the adaptive median filter. After noise removal, we use novel feature extraction techniques, gray-level histogram (MGH) of moments, local binary pattern (LBP) features, and gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) features and morphological features to extract features. Since the large number of features is a major obstacle to the classification process, improved local Fisher discriminant analysis (ILFDA) is used to reduce the dimensionality after feature extraction.
