A feature selection-based framework to identify biomarkers for cancer diagnosis: A focus on lung adenocarcinoma

Lung cancer (LC) represents most of the cancer incidences in the world. There are many types of LC, but Lung Adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the most common type. Although RNA-seq and microarray data provide a vast amount of gene expression data, most of the genes are insignificant to clinical diagnosis. Feature selection (FS) techniques overcome the high dimensionality and sparsity issues of the large-scale data. We propose a framework that applies an ensemble of feature selection techniques to identify genes highly correlated to LUAD. Utilizing LUAD RNA-seq data from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA)

Light-Weight Food Image Classification For Egyptian Cuisine

Food is an integral aspect of daily life in all cultures. It highly affects people's diets, eating behaviors, and overall health. People with poor eating habits are usually overweight or obese, which leads to chronic diseases such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Today, the classification of food images has several uses in managing medical conditions and dieting. Deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) architectures provide the foundation for the most recent food recognition models. However, DCNNs are computationally expensive due to high computation time and memory requirements. In

Deep Learning Approaches for Epileptic Seizure Prediction: A Review

Epilepsy is a chronic nervous disorder, which disturbs the normal daily routine of an epileptic patient due to sudden seizure onset that may cause loss of consciousness. Seizures are periods of aberrant brain activity patterns. Early prediction of an epileptic seizure is critical for those who suffer from it as it will give them time to prepare for an incoming seizure and alert anyone in their close circle of contacts to aid them. This has been an active field of study, powered by the decreasing cost of non-invasive electroencephalogram (EEG) collecting equipment and the rapid evolution of

Innovative approaches to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis diagnosis and stratification

The global rise in Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD)/Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) highlights the urgent necessity for noninvasive biomarkers to detect these conditions early. To address this, we endeavored to construct a diagnostic model for MASLD/MASH using a combination of bioinformatics, molecular/biochemical data, and machine learning techniques. Initially, bioinformatics analysis was employed to identify RNA molecules associated with MASLD/MASH pathogenesis and enriched in ferroptosis and exophagy. This analysis unveiled specific
