Article Abstract

Introduction: Development and validation of a deep learning algorithm to automatically identify and locate epiretinal memberane (ERM) regions in OCT images.

Methods: OCT images of 468 eyes were retrospectively collected from a total of 404 ERM patients. One expert manually annotated the ERM regions for all images. A total of 422 images (90%) and the remainig 46 images (10%) were used as the training dataset and validation dataset for deep learning algorithm training and validation, respectively. One senior and one junior clinician read the images. The diagnostic results were compared.

Results: The algorithm accurately segmented and located the ERM regions in OCT images. The image-level accuracy was 95.65%, and the ERM region-level accuracy was 90.14%, respectively. In comparison experiments, the accuracies of the junior clinician improved from 85.00% to 61.29% without the assistance of the algorithm to 100.00% and 90.32% with the assistance of the algorithm. The corresponding results of the senior clinician were 96.15%, 95.00% without the assistance of the algorithm, and 96.15%, 97.50% with the assistance of the algorithm.

Conclusions: The developed deep learning algorithm can accurately segment ERM regions in OCT images. This deep learning approach may help clinicians in clinical diagnosis with better accuracy and efficiency.

Drug absorption significantly influences pharmacokinetics. Accurately predicting human oral bioavailability (HOB) is essential for optimizing drug candidates and improving clinical success rates. The traditional method based on experiment is a common way to obtain HOB, but the experimental method is time-consuming and costly.

This study explores how differences in colors presented separately to each eye (binocular color differences) can be identified through EEG signals, a method of recording electrical activity from the brain. Four distinct levels of green-red color differences, defined in the CIELAB color space with constant luminance and chroma, are investigated in this study. Analysis of Event-Related Potentials (ERPs) revealed a significant decrease in the amplitude of the P300 component as binocular color differences increased, suggesting a measurable brain response to these differences.

Although many real-world time series are complex, developing methods that can learn from their behavior effectively enough to enable reliable forecasting remains challenging. Recently, several machine-learning approaches have shown promise in addressing this problem. In particular, the echo state network (ESN) architecture, a type of recurrent neural network where neurons are randomly connected and only the read-out layer is trained, has been proposed as suitable for many-step-ahead forecasting tasks.
