The deadliest form of skin cancer is melanoma, and if detected in time, it is curable. Detection of melanoma using biopsy is a painful and time-consuming task. Alternate means are being used by medical experts to diagnose melanoma by extracting features from skin lesion images. Medical image diagnosis requires intelligent systems. Many intelligent systems based on image processing and machine learning have been proposed by researchers in the past to detect different kinds of diseases that are successfully used by healthcare organisations worldwide. Intelligent systems to detect melanoma from skin lesion images are also evolving with the aim of improving the accuracy of melanoma detection. Feature extraction plays a critical role. In this paper, a model is proposed in which features are extracted using convolutional neural network (CNN) with transfer learning and a hierarchical classifier consisting of random forest (RF), k-nearest neighbor (KNN), and adaboost is used to detect melanoma using the extracted features. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed model.
最致命的皮肤癌是黑色素瘤,如果及时发现,是可以治愈的。使用活检检测黑色素瘤是一项痛苦且耗时的任务。医学专家正在使用另一种方法,通过从皮肤病变图像中提取特征来诊断黑色素瘤。医学图像诊断需要智能系统。过去,研究人员提出了许多基于图像处理和机器学习的智能系统来检测不同类型的疾病,这些系统已被全球医疗机构成功使用。从皮肤病变图像中检测黑色素瘤的智能系统也在不断发展,目的是提高黑色素瘤检测的准确性。特征提取起着至关重要的作用。本文提出了一种模型,该模型使用带有迁移学习的卷积神经网络(CNN)和随机森林(RF)、k近邻(KNN)组成的分层分类器提取特征,并使用adaboost使用提取的特征检测黑色素瘤。实验结果表明了该模型的有效性。

The role of wireless medical sensor networks (WMSNs) is very significant in healthcare applications of IoT. Online report generation and sharing the reports reduce the time and make the treatment of patients very fast. Here, the safety of patient data plays a crucial role. As there is a restriction of resources in sensor nodes, the design of authentication scheme for WMSNs is not an easy task in healthcare applications. Healthcare professionals are using their mobile to collect data from patients' bodies. To use WMSNs in healthcare applications, cryptanalysis of Li et al. is done and found that it suffers from various attacks. Hence, a new efficient privacy-preserving user authenticated scheme using elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) is proposed. The security analysis of scheme is performed using random oracle model, in addition to BAN logic. AVISPA is used for simulation to prove that the proposed scheme can resist passive and active attacks. Finally, the performance comparison of schemes shows that the proposed scheme performs better.
无线医疗传感器网络(wmsn)在物联网医疗应用中的作用非常重要。在线报告生成和报告共享减少了时间,使患者的治疗非常快速。在这里,患者数据的安全性起着至关重要的作用。在医疗保健应用中,由于传感器节点资源的限制,wmsn认证方案的设计并不是一件容易的事情。医疗保健专业人员正在使用他们的手机从病人身上收集数据。为了在医疗保健应用中使用wmsn,对Li等人进行了密码分析,发现它遭受了各种攻击。在此基础上,提出了一种利用椭圆曲线加密(ECC)的高效用户身份认证方案。在BAN逻辑的基础上,采用随机oracle模型对方案进行安全性分析。利用AVISPA进行仿真,验证了该方案能够抵抗主动和被动攻击。最后,对两种方案进行性能比较,结果表明所提方案具有更好的性能。

Vast volumes of raw data are generated from the digital world each day. Acquiring useful information and chief features from this data is challenging, and it has become a prime area of current research. Another crucial area is knowledge inferencing. Much research has been carried out in both directions. Swarm intelligence is used for feature selection whereas for knowledge inferencing either fuzzy or rough computing is widely used. Hybridization of intelligent and swarm intelligence techniques are booming recently. In this research work, the authors hybridize both artificial bee colony and rough set. At the initial phase, they employ an artificial bee colony to find the chief features. Further, these main features are analyzed using rough set generating rules. The proposed model indeed helps to diagnose a disease carefully. An empirical analysis is carried out on hepatitis dataset. In addition, a comparative study is also presented. The analysis shows the viability of the proposed model.

Early detection of all types of lung nodules with different characters in medical modality images using computer-aided detection is the best acceptable remedy to save the lives of lung cancer sufferers. But accuracy of different types of nodule detection rates is based on chosen segmented procedures for parenchyma and nodules. Separation of pleural from juxta-pleural nodules (JPNs) is difficult as intensity of pleural and attached nodule is similar. This research paper proposes a fully automated method to detect and segment JPNs. In the proposed method, lung parenchyma is segmented using iterative thresholding algorithm. To improve the nodules detection rate separation of connected lung lobes, an algorithm is proposed to separate connected left and right lung lobes. The new method segments JPNs based on lung boundary pixels extraction, concave points extraction, and separation of attached pleural from nodule. Validation of the proposed method was performed on LIDC-CT images. The experimental result confirms that the developed method segments the JPNs with less computational time and high accuracy.
利用计算机辅助检测,早期发现医学模态图像中具有不同特征的各种类型的肺结节,是挽救肺癌患者生命的最佳可接受的补救措施。但不同类型的结节检出率的准确性是基于对实质和结节选择的分割程序。由于胸膜结节及其附着结节的强度相似,胸膜结节与近胸膜结节的分离是困难的。本文提出了一种全自动的JPNs检测和分割方法。该方法采用迭代阈值分割算法对肺实质进行分割。为了提高连通肺叶结节分离的检出率,提出了一种分离连通左右肺叶的算法。该方法基于肺边界像素提取、凹点提取和附着胸膜与结节的分离对JPNs进行分割。在lcd - ct图像上对该方法进行了验证。实验结果表明,该方法对jpn进行分割,计算时间短,准确率高。

This chapter explores valuating the efficacy of using artificial neural networks (ANNs) for predicting the estimated blood loss (EBL) and also transfusion requirements of myomectomy patients. All 146 myomectomy surgeries performed over a 6-year period from a single site are captured. Records were removed for various reasons, leaving 96 cases. Backpropagation and radial basis function ANN models were developed to predict EBL and perioperative transfusion needs along with a regression model. The single hidden layer backpropagation ANN models performed the best for both prediction problems. EBL was predicted on average within 127.33 ml of measured blood loss, and transfusions were predicted with 71.4% sensitivity and 85.4% specificity. A combined ANN ensemble model using the output of the EBL ANN as an input variable to the transfusion prediction ANN was developed and resulted in 100% sensitivity and 62.9% specificity. The preoperative identification of large EBL or transfusion need can assist caregivers in better planning for possible post-operative morbidity and mortality.
本章探讨了评估使用人工神经网络(ann)预测子宫肌瘤切除术患者估计失血量(EBL)和输血需求的有效性。我们收集了6年来在同一地点进行的所有146例子宫肌瘤切除术。由于各种原因,记录被删除,留下96个案件。反向传播和径向基函数神经网络模型与回归模型一起用于预测EBL和围手术期输血需求。单隐层反向传播人工神经网络模型在这两个预测问题上都表现最好。EBL的预测平均在测量失血量的127.33 ml内,预测输注的敏感性为71.4%,特异性为85.4%。利用EBL神经网络的输出作为输血预测神经网络的输入变量,建立了一个联合神经网络集成模型,其灵敏度为100%,特异性为62.9%。术前确定大EBL或输血需求可以帮助护理人员更好地规划可能的术后发病率和死亡率。

Patients with advanced hip osteoarthritis are likely to suffer from biomechanical disorders. As many criteria inform how such patients are being qualified for alloplasty procedures, this article proposes a multi-criteria decisional framework in qualifying patients for treatment while undergoing diagnostic analysis for hip replacement surgery. In order to assess the patient's health condition, the competence of physicians and physiotherapists must first be checked. After creating the expert preference model and decision tree, the AHP method was applied followed by the Electre Tri method in the next stage of verification. Integrating these analytic procedures, a group of patients can be quickly evaluated and meaningfully profiled. Specifically, these patients can be classified in respect of their condition determined during hospitalisation as per the severity of degenerative disease and on the basis of their subjective feelings and diagnostics. The proposed methodology promises to allow optimal treatment to be assigned while enabling the appropriate classification and verification within group of patients targeted for hip replacement surgery.
晚期髋关节骨关节炎患者可能会出现生物力学紊乱。由于许多标准告知这些患者如何有资格进行异体成形术,本文提出了一个多标准决策框架,以确定患者在接受髋关节置换术诊断分析时是否有资格接受治疗。为了评估病人的健康状况,必须首先检查医生和理疗师的能力。在建立专家偏好模型和决策树后,应用AHP法进行下一阶段的验证,然后采用Electre Tri法进行验证。整合这些分析程序,可以快速评估一组患者并对其进行有意义的分析。具体而言,可以根据住院期间确定的病情、退行性疾病的严重程度以及患者的主观感受和诊断结果对这些患者进行分类。所提出的方法承诺允许分配最佳治疗,同时在髋关节置换术患者组中进行适当的分类和验证。

Blockchain Application to the Cancer Registry Database 区块链应用于癌症注册数据库
Pub Date : 2020-10-01 DOI: 10.4018/IJHISI.2020100105
Joseph Kasten
Blockchain, since its 2008 conceptual inception, has largely been contextualized in crypto currencies. Today, blockchain technology has matured to a level that allows the exploration of its application to other and diverse domains, including the management of cancer registries. When collecting and handling data relating to cancer diagnosis and treatment as mandated by law in many municipalities, the process is both time-consuming and requires significant coordination among multiple levels of data collecting jurisdictions. This often leads to inconsistent data vis-à-vis the various levels of data storage. This paper calls for using a blockchain-based mechanism to alert the data users on possible inconsistencies prior to applying the collected data in cancer research. A system framework drawing on the design science research methodology is found to result in increased data quality so as to improve cancer research outcome accuracies.
区块链自2008年概念化以来,在很大程度上被置于加密货币的背景下。如今,区块链技术已经成熟到可以探索其在其他不同领域的应用,包括癌症登记处的管理。在许多城市按照法律规定收集和处理与癌症诊断和治疗有关的数据时,这一过程既耗时又需要在多个数据收集管辖区之间进行大量协调。这通常会导致不同级别数据存储的数据不一致-à-vis。本文呼吁在将收集的数据应用于癌症研究之前,使用基于区块链的机制提醒数据用户可能存在的不一致性。采用设计科学研究方法的系统框架提高了数据质量,从而提高了癌症研究结果的准确性。

Knowledge Fusion Based on Cloud Computing Environment for Long-Term Care 基于云计算环境的长期护理知识融合
Pub Date : 2020-10-01 DOI: 10.4018/IJHISI.2020100103

Globally, aging is now a societal trend and challenge in many developed and developing countries. A key medical strategy that a fast-paced aging society must consider is the provision of quality long-term care (LTC) services. Even so, the lack of LTC caregivers is a persistent global problem. Herein, attention is called to the increasing need for identifying appropriate LTC caregivers and delivering client-specific LTC services to the elderly via emerging and integrative technologies. This paper argues for the use of an intelligent cloud computing long-term care platform (ICCLCP) that integrates statistical analysis, machine learning, and Semantic Web technologies into a cloud-computing environment to facilitate LTC services delivery. The Term frequency-inverse document frequency is a numerical statistic adopted to automatically assess the professionalism of each LTC caregiver's services. The machine learning method adopts naïve Bayes classifier to estimate the LTC services needed for the elderly. These two items of LTC information are integrated with the Semantic Web to provide an intelligent LTC framework. The deployed ICCLCP will then aid the elderly in the recommendation of LTC caregivers, thereby making the best use of available resources for LTC services.
在全球范围内,老龄化在许多发达国家和发展中国家都是一种社会趋势和挑战。快速老龄化社会必须考虑的一项关键医疗战略是提供高质量的长期护理服务。即便如此,缺乏长期护理人员是一个持续存在的全球性问题。在此,需要注意的是,越来越需要确定合适的LTC护理人员,并通过新兴和综合技术向老年人提供针对客户的LTC服务。本文主张使用智能云计算长期护理平台(ICCLCP),该平台将统计分析、机器学习和语义网技术集成到云计算环境中,以促进长期护理服务的提供。术语频率逆文件频率是一种数字统计,用于自动评估每个LTC护理人员服务的专业程度。机器学习方法采用naïve贝叶斯分类器来估计老年人所需的LTC服务。这两项LTC信息与语义Web集成,以提供智能LTC框架。部署的ICCLCP将帮助老年人推荐长期护理中心的护理人员,从而充分利用现有资源提供长期护理中心服务。

Last Minute Medical Appointments No-Show Management 最后一分钟的医疗预约没有出现的管理
Pub Date : 2020-10-01 DOI: 10.4018/IJHISI.2020100102
Daniel M. Sousa, André Vasconcelos
A no-show occurs when a client has an appointment of some sort with another entity, and voluntarily or not, the client does not show up to that appointment. A patient missing an appointment will mean that the clinic's and health professional's time slot will be wasted. The goal of this research is to find a solution that minimizes no-shows, detecting when a patient is not going to come to the appointment and finding an appropriate replacement. The authors propose a hybrid solution which combines two different behavior prediction techniques: population-based behavior and individual-based behavior. The algorithm starts by computing a no-show probability based on the population's behavior using a logistic regression model. After that, using Bayesian inference, that probability is personalized for each patient. After computing the no-show probabilities for every candidate patient, the algorithm checks if any of them are interested on taking the appointment. The proposed algorithm was assessed using lab data and healthcare provider data.
当客户与另一个实体有某种类型的约会,并且自愿或非自愿,客户没有出现在该约会时,就会出现no-show。病人错过预约将意味着诊所和卫生专业人员的时间将被浪费。这项研究的目标是找到一种解决方案,最大限度地减少缺勤,发现病人什么时候不会来预约,并找到合适的替代。作者提出了一种混合解决方案,结合了两种不同的行为预测技术:基于群体的行为和基于个人的行为。该算法首先使用逻辑回归模型计算基于人群行为的缺席概率。之后,使用贝叶斯推理,概率为每个病人个性化。在计算每个候选患者的缺席概率后,算法检查他们中是否有人有兴趣接受预约。使用实验室数据和医疗保健提供者数据对所提出的算法进行了评估。
