Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Artificial intelligence (AI), including deep learning and machine learning, is currently undergoing rapid development, having garnered substantial public attention in recent years. This Special Issue plans to focus on topics and issues regarding the development AI to become more meaningfully intelligent for lesion detection and analysis, scientific validations of AI systems, clinical evaluations of AI systems, bias detection in AI systems, high-speed AI systems, and edge-devices for AI systems, all these facets of AI enveloping different branches of medicine and leading to personalized and precision medicine.

Oral lesions are a prevalent manifestation of oral disease, and the timely identification of oral lesions is imperative for effective intervention. Fortunately, deep learning algorithms have shown great potential for automated lesion detection. The primary aim of this study was to employ deep learning-based image classification algorithms to identify oral lesions. We used three deep learning models, namely VGG19, DeIT, and MobileNet, to assess the efficacy of various categorization methods. To evaluate the accuracy and reliability of the models, we employed a dataset consisting of oral pictures encompassing two distinct categories: benign and malignant lesions. The experimental findings indicate that VGG19 and MobileNet attained an almost perfect accuracy rate of 100%, while DeIT achieved a slightly lower accuracy rate of 98.73%. The results of this study indicate that deep learning algorithms for picture classification demonstrate a high level of effectiveness in detecting oral lesions by achieving 100% for VGG19 and MobileNet and 98.73% for DeIT. Specifically, the VGG19 and MobileNet models exhibit notable suitability for this particular task. Full article

Skin lesion classification plays a crucial role in dermatology, aiding in the early detection, diagnosis, and management of life-threatening malignant lesions. However, standalone transfer learning (TL) models failed to deliver optimal performance. In this study, we present an attention-enabled ensemble-based deep learning technique, a powerful, novel, and generalized method for extracting features for the classification of skin lesions. This technique holds significant promise in enhancing diagnostic accuracy by using seven pre-trained TL models for classification. Six ensemble-based DL (EBDL) models were created using stacking, softmax voting, and weighted average techniques. Furthermore, we investigated the attention mechanism as an effective paradigm and created seven attention-enabled transfer learning (aeTL) models before branching out to construct three attention-enabled ensemble-based DL (aeEBDL) models to create a reliable, adaptive, and generalized paradigm. The mean accuracy of the TL models is 95.30%, and the use of an ensemble-based paradigm increased it by 4.22%, to 99.52%. The aeTL models’ performance was superior to the TL models in accuracy by 3.01%, and aeEBDL models outperformed aeTL models by 1.29%. Statistical tests show significant p-value and Kappa coefficient along with a 99.6% reliability index for the aeEBDL models. The approach is highly effective and generalized for the classification of skin lesions. Full article

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer worldwide. Colonoscopy is the gold standard examination that reduces the morbidity and mortality of CRC. Artificial intelligence (AI) could be useful in reducing the errors of the specialist and in drawing attention to the suspicious area. Methods: A prospective single-center randomized controlled study was conducted in an outpatient endoscopy unit with the aim of evaluating the usefulness of AI-assisted colonoscopy in PDR and ADR during the day time. It is important to understand how already available CADe systems improve the detection of polyps and adenomas in order to make a decision about their routine use in practice. In the period from October 2021 to February 2022, 400 examinations (patients) were included in the study. One hundred and ninety-four patients were examined using the ENDO-AID CADe artificial intelligence device (study group), and 206 patients were examined without the artificial intelligence (control group). Results: None of the analyzed indicators (PDR and ADR during morning and afternoon colonoscopies) showed differences between the study and control groups. There was an increase in PDR during afternoon colonoscopies, as well as ADR during morning and afternoon colonoscopies. Conclusions: Based on our results, the use of AI systems in colonoscopies is recommended, especially in circumstances of an increase of examinations. Additional studies with larger groups of patients at night are needed to confirm the already available data. Full article
