However, due to their algorithmic learning complexity and the variability of their architecture, there is an ongoing need to analyze their performance. This study reviews the input parameters and the performance of machine learning applied to diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). One research focus of this study was on clearly identifying problems and issues related to the implementation of machine learning in clinical studies. Following the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) protocol, 179, 1032, and 36,500 titles were identified from the PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar databases respectively. Studies that used machine learning to detect COPD and provided performance measures were included in our analysis. In the final analysis, 24 studies were included. The analysis of machine learning methods to detect COPD reveals the limited usage of the methods and the lack of standards that hinder the implementation of machine learning in clinical applications. The performance of machine learning for diagnosis of COPD was considered satisfactory for several studies; however, given the limitations indicated in our study, further studies are warranted to extend the potential use of machine learning to clinical settings.","PeriodicalId":343724,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 21st International Conference on Bioinformatics and Bioengineering (BIBE)","volume":"57 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128412919","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}

Pooling data from various sites into a single analysis introduces additional variability from site-effects due to differences in scanner protocols, imaging protocol, and acquisition methods, among others. These site-effects can reduce statistical power or lead to erroneous conclusions. Harmonization is the process of combining data aiming at reducing site variability. One recent approach for harmonizing data called ComBat has been shown to be helpful in the context of functional MRI and static functional connectivity. However, ComBat has not been applied to the analysis of dynamic functional network connectivity (dFNC). Here we explore the impact of ComBat harmonization on dFNC data collected from two different mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) studies. Results show that ComBat harmonization of dFNC can reduce site effects producing a more robust analysis of patient effects across sites.","PeriodicalId":343724,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 21st International Conference on Bioinformatics and Bioengineering (BIBE)","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127166394","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}

To reduce the spatial correlation, computational complexity, and memory requirement, we use t-Distributed Stochastic Neighbor Embedding (t-SNE) on MRI volume to reduce its dimensions. Also, we use parallel CNN instead of sequential to analyze MRI volumes and a combination of RELU, sigmoid, and SIREN activation functions to learn better features for the classification of MCI. To check the efficacy of the proposed t-SNE Multiple-Activation Parallel Convolution Network, experiments are performed on publicly available Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative dataset, and performance is compared with existing methods.

Newly developed multiscale computational tools, tightly interlaced with multiple experiments, can enhance efforts to correct the problems associated with cardiomyopathies and prevent or more effectively manage the disease. Using these computational tools, we examined the effects of mutations in myosin and troponin on cardiac muscle contractility and overall heart functional behaviour.
