• Abstract: Today, data collection has improved in various areas, and the medical domain is no exception. Auscultation, as an important diagnostic technique for physicians, due to the progress and availability of digital stethoscopes, lends itself well to applications of machine learning. Due to the large number of auscultations performed, the availability of data opens up an opportunity for more effective analysis of sounds where prognostic accuracy even among experts remains low. In this study, digital 6-channel auscultations of 45 patients were used in various machine learning scenarios, with the aim of distinguishing between normal and anomalous pulmonary sounds. Audio features (such as fundamental frequencies F0-4, loudness, HNR, DFA, as well as descriptive statistics of log energy, RMS and MFCC) were extracted using the Python library Surfboard. Windowing and feature aggregation and concatenation strategies were used to prepare data for tree-based ensemble models in unsupervised (fair-cut forest) and supervised (random forest) machine learning settings. The evaluation was carried out using 9-fold stratified cross-validation repeated 30 times. Decision fusion by averaging outputs for a subject was tested and found to be useful. Supervised models showed a consistent advantage over unsupervised ones, achieving mean AUC ROC of 0.691 (accuracy 71.11%, Kappa 0.416, F1-score 0.771) in side-based detection and mean AUC ROC of 0.721 (accuracy 68.89%, Kappa 0.371, F1-score 0.650) in patient-based detection.

  We propose to leverage transfer learning from large datasets annotated by radiologists, to predict the histological score available on a small annex dataset. We compare different pretraining methods, namely weakly-supervised and self-supervised ones, to improve the prediction of the cirrhosis. This method outperforms the baseline classification of the METAVIR score, reaching an AUC of 0.84 and a balanced accuracy of 0.75.

  acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a severe form of hypoxemic respiratory failure with in-hospital mortality of 35-46%. High mortality is thought to be related in part to challenges in making a prompt diagnosis, which may in turn delay implementation of evidence-based therapies. A deep neural network (DNN) algorithm utilizing unbiased ventilator waveform data (VWD) may help to improve screening for ARDS.

  Early recognition of clinical deterioration is one of the main steps for reducing inpatient morbidity and mortality. Since hospital wards are given less attention compared to the Intensive Care Unit, ICU, we hypothesized that when a platform is connected to a stream of EHR, there would be a drastic improvement in dangerous situations awareness. With the application of machine learning, the system is capable to consider all patient's history and through the use of high-performing predictive models, an intelligent early warning system is enabled.
