Advances in healthcare research have significantly enhanced our understanding of disease mechanisms, diagnostic precision, and therapeutic options. Yet, lung cancer remains one of the leading causes of cancer-related mortality worldwide due to challenges in early and accurate diagnosis. While current lung cancer detection models show promise, there is considerable potential for further improving the accuracy for timely intervention. To address this challenge, we introduce a hybrid deep convolution model leveraging transfer learning, named the Maximum Sensitivity Neural Network (MSNN). MSNN is designed to improve the precision of lung cancer detection by refining sensitivity and specificity. This model has surpassed existing deep learning approaches through experimental validation, achieving an accuracy of 98% and a sensitivity of 97%. By overlaying sensitivity maps onto lung Computed Tomography (CT) scans, it enables the visualization of regions most indicative of malignant or benign classifications. This innovative method demonstrates exceptional performance in distinguishing lung cancer with minimal false positives, thereby enhancing the accuracy of medical diagnoses.


Resource and Mobility Management in Hybrid LiFi and WiFi Networks: A User-Centric Learning Approach

Hybrid light fidelity (LiFi) and wireless fidelity (WiFi) networks (HLWNets) are an emerging indoor wireless communication paradigm, which combines the advantages of the capacious optical spectra of LiFi and ubiquitous coverage of WiFi. Meanwhile, load balancing (LB) becomes a key challenge in resource management for such hybrid networks. The existing LB methods are mostly network-centric, relying on a central unit to make a solution for the users all at once. Consequently, the solution needs to be updated for all users at the same pace, regardless of their moving status. This would affect the network performance in two aspects: i) when the update frequency is low, it would compromise the connectivity of fast-moving users; ii) when the update frequency is high, it would cause unnecessary handovers as well as hefty feedback costs for slow-moving users. Motivated by this, we investigate user-centric LB which allows users to update their solutions at different paces. The research is developed upon our previous work on adaptive target-condition neural network (ATCNN), which can conduct LB for individual users in quasi-static channels. In this paper, a deep neural network (DNN) model is designed to enable an adaptive update interval for each individual user. This new model is termed as mobility-supporting neural network (MSNN). Associating MSNN with ATCNN, a user-centric LB framework named mobility-supporting ATCNN (MS-ATCNN) is proposed to handle resource management and mobility management simultaneously. Results show that at the same level of average update interval, MS-ATCNN can achieve a network throughput up to 215\% higher than conventional LB methods such as game theory, especially for a larger number of users. In addition, MS-ATCNN costs an ultra low runtime at the level of 100s $\mu$s, which is two to three orders of magnitude lower than game theory.
