Effect sizes as a statistical feature-selector-based learning to detect breast cancer
Masino, Nicolas, Quintero-Rincon, Antonio
Breast cancer detection is still an open research field, despite a tremendous effort devoted to work in this area. Effect size is a statistical concept that measures the strength of the relationship between two variables on a numeric scale. Feature selection is widely used to reduce the dimensionality of data by selecting only a subset of predictor variables to improve a learning model. In this work, an algorithm and experimental results demonstrate the feasibility of developing a statistical featureselector-based learning tool capable of reducing the data dimensionality using parametric effect size measures from features extracted from cell nuclei images. The SVM classifier with a linear kernel as a learning tool achieved an accuracy of over 90%. These excellent results suggest that the effect size is within the standards of the feature-selector methods.

New York doctors use artificial intelligence to better detect breast cancer
Doctors believe artificial intelligence is now saving lives after a major advancement in breast cancer screenings. AI is detecting early signs of the disease, in some cases years before doctors would find the cancer on a traditional scan. Artificial intelligence is reportedly advancing work in the fight against cancer. Dr. Laurie Margolies, chief of breast imaging at Mount Sinai Health System, told CBS News this week the technology is being used to detect breast cancer. "I think artificial intelligence has the ability to make us be even better physicians than we might otherwise be, by teaching us what are the risk factors, what makes a certain pattern of breast tissue be at high risk," she explained, noting that AI can see things the naked eye might miss on a mammogram.

Revolutionizing breast cancer detection: The power of AI
The CyberGuy Kurt Knutsson says people should'embrace' but be'terrified of' ChatGPT, and warns TikTok can track people even if the app is not downloaded. AI technology is making its presence known in every aspect of our lives from food delivery to narrating audiobooks. Now, the technology is starting to be used in the medical field. One area where AI is proving to be a particularly valuable tool is in the detection of breast cancer. Doctors are now able to use AI algorithms to analyze medical images, such as mammograms, and identify potential signs of breast cancer with greater accuracy and efficiency.
AI Wades into the Deepest Healthcare Challenges – Asian Robotics Review
This is my new AI in Healthcare Highlights & Milestones Report for Summer 2022. This report includes an overview of advances made during the summer across the healthcare spectrum including important studies, regulatory clearances, fundraising, partnerships, and growth in the AI ecosystem worldwide. This summer scientists demonstrated how they successfully used AI in many areas including: to reduce sepsis deaths, to predict cardiac events, to detect breast cancer, to detect lung cancer, to detects osteoporosis, to detect Parkinson's, to monitor diabetic retinopathy, to detect heart disease, to detect bladder cancer, to enable pathology, to detect fractures, and to monitor Parkinson's using the Apple Watch. Radiologists More Accurate Detecting Breast Cancer with AI Than Without AI In July scientists in Germany published a large-scale study demonstrating that radiologists working with AI were more accurate detecting breast cancer than radiologists working without AI, and vice versa – the AI was more accurate when working with a radiologist than when working independently. The study was led by Vara, a German company, in collaboration with radiologists at the Essen University Hospital in Germany and the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York.

AI's Bias Problem: Why Humanity Must Be Returned To AI - AI Summary
Despite the many benefits AI technology can provide – for instance, AI models can detect breast cancer more accurately than radiologists – we also need to be aware of the potential negative consequences of AI, including deepfakes and nefarious uses of facial recognition. If an AI system is built in a contrived laboratory environment with data that isn't representative of the target audience, or worse, patterns in the data reflect prejudice, the AI's decisions will also be prejudiced. According to a report by AI Now Institute at New York University, the lack of diverse training data also threatens to worsen the historic underemployment of disabled people. With the right partner and making use of vetted crowdtest communities, companies can quickly access training data at scale and garner iterative feedback from users in real time. It may not be possible to have a completely unbiased human, so it will be hard to build completely unbiased AI algorithms, but by harnessing a diverse and large collection of real human interactions prior to release the industry can certainly do better than it is today.
Wearables and AI Transforming Healthcare Diagnosis
Artificial intelligence has a significant role to play in the increasing digitization and automation of various industries. Advanced technologies like AI, machine learning, NLP, etc., have increased the pace and quality of digital transformation. Life becomes convenient and easier with these technological advancements. Healthcare is an important industry that has been crippling with shortcomings and quality erosion. Although, many healthcare providers have invested in technology to improve the quality and pace of treatment.

Google AI Can Now Detect Breast Cancer Better Than Doctors The Motley Fool
The advent of artificial intelligence (AI) has brought a host of technologies that make everyday tasks easier. The most widely used examples include providing more relevant internet searches, predicting the next word in a text message, identifying the face in a photo on social media, and routing commuters around trouble spots in traffic. The AI discipline of deep learning also has the potential to revolutionize healthcare in ways that researchers are only beginning to explore. A recent announcement by Alphabet's (NASDAQ:GOOGL)(NASDAQ:GOOG) Google highlights one example of how research is taking leaps ahead as physicians begin using AI as a tool. A study published in the scientific journal Nature showed that Google's AI system could detect breast cancer in mammograms more accurately than human radiologists.

Google A.I. Can Detect Breast Cancer More Accurately Than Doctors Can Digital Trends
Google's artificial intelligence technology is able to spot signs of breast cancer in women with more accuracy than doctors, according to a new study. The study, published on Wednesday, January 1, in the scientific journal Nature, found that by using A.I. technology, there was a reduction in false positives and false negatives when it came to diagnosing forms of breast cancer. A.I. technology was used to look the mammograms from more than 15,000 women in the United States, and over 76,000 women in the United Kingdom. The program was able to reduce false positive by 5.7% for women in the U.S. and 1.2% for those in the U.K. False negatives were reduced 9.4% in the U.S. and by 2.7% in the U.K. The advanced A.I. system proved to be more accurate than human experts with knowledge of a patient's history, even if doctors did a second reading of mammogram results, according to the study. "The performance of even the best clinicians leaves room for improvement," the study reads.

Alphabet CFO: Our AI is so good we can detect breast cancer with less data than ever
Major breakthroughs are now possible with less data than ever thanks to artificial intelligence, Alphabet Chief Financial Officer Ruth Porat said during a panel at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland Tuesday. Artificial intelligence "learns" patterns by ingesting typically large amounts of data and then using that information to complete a task, like sorting data into different buckets. Porat said less data is required than before to see impactful results from AI, citing a recent example of medical breakthrough aided by Alphabet technology. Google, which is owned by Alphabet, claimed in an October blog post it had created an AI that could "correctly distinguish a slide with metastatic cancer from a slide without cancer 99% of the time." Google said the breakthrough could indicate that AI could play a role in repetitive diagnostic procedures, freeing up time for doctors to focus on more difficult tasks.
