Abstract In the western world,the prostate cancer is major cause of death in males. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is widely used for the detection of prostate cancer due to which it is an open area of research. The proposed method uses deep learning framework for the detection of prostate cancer using the concept of Gleason grading of the historical images. A3D convolutional neural network has been used to observe the affected region and predicting the affected region with the help of Epithelial and the Gleason grading network. The proposed model has performed the state-of-art while detecting epithelial and the Gleason score simultaneously. The performance has been measured by considering all the slices of MRI, volumes of MRI with the test fold, and segmenting prostate cancer with help of Endorectal Coil for collecting the images of MRI of the prostate 3D CNN network. Experimentally, it was observed that the proposed deep learning approach has achieved overall specificity of 85% with an accuracy of 87% and sensitivity 89% over the patient-level for the different targeted MRI images of the challenge of the SPIE-AAPM-NCI Prostate dataset.

Abstract The task of predicting the risk of defaulting of a lender using tools in the domain of AI is an emerging one and in growing demand, given the revolutionary potential of AI. Various attributes like income, properties acquired, educational status, and many other socioeconomic factors can be used to train a model to predict the possibilities of nonrepayment of a loan or its chances. Most of the techniques and algorithms used in this regard previously do not submit any attention to the uncertainty in predictions for out of distribution (OOD) in a dataset, which contributes to overfitting, leading to relatively lower accuracy for predicting these data points. Specifically, for credit risk classification, this is a serious concern, given the structure of the available datasets and the trend they follow. With a focus on this issue, we propose a robust and better methodology that uses a recent and efficient family of nonlinear neural network activation functions, which mimics the properties induced by the widely‐used Matérn family of kernels in Gaussian process (GP) models. We tested the classification performance metrics on three openly available datasets after prior preprocessing. We achieved a high mean classification accuracy of 87.4% and a lower mean negative log predictive density loss of 0.405.

Abstract The novel‐corona‐virus is presently accountable for 547,782 deaths worldwide. It was first observed in China in late 2019 and, the increase in number of its affected cases seriously disturbed almost every nation in terms of its economical, structural, educational growth. Furthermore, with the advancement of data‐analytics and machine learning towards enhanced diagnostic tools for the infection, the growth rate in the affected patients has reduced considerably, thereby making it critical for AI researchers and experts from medical radiology to put more efforts in this side. In this regard, we present a controlled study which provides analysis of various potential possibilities in terms of detection models/algorithms for COVID‐19 detection from radiology‐based images like chest x‐rays. We provide a rigorous comparison between the VGG16, VGG19, Residual Network, Dark‐Net as the foundational network with the Single Shot MultiBox Detector (SSD) for predictions. With some preprocessing techniques specific to the task like CLAHE, this study shows the potential of the methodology relative to the existing techniques. The highest of all precision and recall were achieved with DenseNet201 + SSD512 as 93.01 and 94.98 respectively.
