Autistic individuals often have difficulties expressing or controlling emotions and have poor eye contact, among other symptoms. The prevalence of autism is increasing globally, posing a need to address this concern. Current diagnostic systems have particular limitations; hence, some individuals go undiagnosed or the diagnosis is delayed. In this study, an effective autism diagnostic system using electroencephalogram (EEG) signals, which are generated from electrical activity in the brain, was developed and characterized. The pre-processed signals were converted to two-dimensional images using the higher-order spectra (HOS) bispectrum. Nonlinear features were extracted thereafter, and then reduced using locality sensitivity discriminant analysis (LSDA). Significant features were selected from the condensed feature set using Student's t-test, and were then input to different classifiers. The probabilistic neural network (PNN) classifier achieved the highest accuracy of 98.70% with just five features. Ten-fold cross-validation was employed to evaluate the performance of the classifier. It was shown that the developed system can be useful as a decision support tool to assist healthcare professionals in diagnosing autism.

V. Jahmunah, Joel En Wei Koh, Vidya K. Sudarshan, U. Raghavendra, Anjan Gudigar, Shu Lih Oh, Hui Wen Loh, Oliver Faust, Prabal Datta Barua, Edward J. Ciaccio, U. Rajendra Acharya

Summary: In this study, information extraction methods were used to differentiate Celiac Disease (CD) from non-CD. Statistical and non-linear methods were found to be the most important for information extraction. These tools can reduce variability in clinical workflows, but bias introduced during the design of diagnostic support systems may limit the general validity of the results. Understanding the limitations of information extraction tools can improve the process.

Summary: Dental caries is a common dental health issue that can cause pain and infections, reducing quality of life. Applying machine learning models for caries detection can lead to early treatment, but lack of explainability may hinder their acceptance. In this study, an explainable deep learning model for detecting dental caries was developed and evaluated. The ResNet-50 model showed slightly better performance compared to EfficientNet-B0 and DenseNet-121, achieving an accuracy of 92.00% and a sensitivity of 87.33%. The heat maps provided by the model helped explain the classification results, enabling dentists to validate and reduce misclassification.
