The paper uses geometric methods to classify medical data histograms.

problem Classifying medical data histograms for disease diagnosis.
method Information geometry of beta distributions for comparing and classifying histograms.
result Geometric tools, particularly negatively curved Fisher information, enable unique mean calculation and K-means classification.

Traditional medicine typically applies one-size-fits-all treatment for the entire patient population whereas precision medicine develops tailored treatment schemes for different patient subgroups. The fact that some factors may be more significant for a specific patient subgroup motivates clinicians and medical researc…

Novel framework detects CKD in diabetic patients using sparse EHR representations.

problem Early detection of CKD in diabetic patients.
method Sparse longitudinal representations of EHR data.
result Proposed model achieves higher predictive performance than baselines.

Traditionally, machine learning algorithms rely on the assumption that all features of a given dataset are available for free. However, there are many concerns such as monetary data collection costs, patient discomfort in medical procedures, and privacy impacts of data collection that require careful consideration in a…

Proposes a novel anomaly detection method for echocardiogram videos.

problem Anomaly detection in echocardiogram videos.
method Dynamic Variational Trajectory Models (TVAE-C, TVAE-R, TVAE-S) trained on healthy infant echocardiogram videos.
result Superior performance in detecting congenital heart defects and pulmonary hypertension.

The clinical management of several cardiovascular conditions, such as pulmonary hypertension, require the assessment of the right ventricular (RV) function. This work addresses the fully automatic and robust access to one of the key RV biomarkers, its ejection fraction, from the gold standard imaging modality, MRI. The…
