Abstract This paper is concerned with the role of science and technology in helping to create change in society. Diagnostic radiology is an example of an activity that has undergone significant change due to such developments, which over the past 40 years have led to a huge increase in the volume of medical imaging data generated. However, these developments have by and large left the human elements of the radiological process (referrer, radiographer and radiologist) intact. Diagnostic radiology has now reached a stage whereby the volume of information generated cannot be fully utilised solely by employing human observers to form clinical opinions, a process that has not changed in over 100 years. In order to address this problem, the potential application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the form of Deep Learning (DL) techniques to diagnostic radiology indicates that the next technological development phase may already be underway. The paper outlines the historical development of AI techniques, including Machine Learning and DL Neural Networks and discusses how such developments may affect radiological practice over the coming decades. The ongoing growth in the world market for radiological services is potentially a significant driver for change. The application of AI and DL learning techniques will place quantification of diagnostic outcomes at the heart of performance evaluation and quality standards. The effect this might have on the optimisation process will be discussed and in particular the possible need for automation in order to meet more stringent and standardised performance requirements that might result from these developments. Changes in radiological practices would also impact upon patient protection including the associated scientific support requirements and these are discussed.

Nowadays, Artificial intelligence is an important part in everyone's life. It can be derived in two categories named as Machine learning and deep learning. Machine learning is the emerging field of the current era. With the help of the machine learning, we can develop the computers in such a way so that they can learn themselves. There are various types of leaning algorithms used for machine learning. With the help of these algorithms, machines can learn various things and they can behave almost like the human beings. Nowadays, the role of the machine is not limited in some defined fields only; it is playing an important role in almost every field such as education, entertainment, medical diagnosis etc. In this research paper, the basics about machine learning is discussed we have discussed about various learning techniques such as supervised learning, unsupervised learning and reinforcement learning in detail. A small portion is also used to cover some basics about the Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN). Some information about the various languages and APIs, designed and mostly used for Machine Learning and its applications are also provided in this paper.

<p>Machine learning is being presented as a new solution for a wide range of geoscience problems. Primarily machine learning has been used for 3D seismic data processing, seismic facies analysis and well log data correlation. The rapid development in technology with open-source artificial intelligence libraries and the accessibility of affordable computer graphics processing units (GPU) makes the application of machine learning in geosciences increasingly tractable. However, the application of artificial intelligence in structural interpretation workflows of subsurface datasets is still ambiguous. This study aims to use machine learning techniques to classify images of folds and fold-thrust structures. Here we show that convolutional neural networks (CNNs) as supervised deep learning techniques provide excellent algorithms to discriminate between geological image datasets. Four different datasets of images have been used to train and test the machine learning models. These four datasets are a seismic character dataset with five classes (faults, folds, salt, flat layers and basement), folds types with three classes (buckle, chevron and conjugate), fault types with three classes (normal, reverse and thrust) and fold-thrust geometries with three classes (fault bend fold, fault propagation fold and detachment fold). These image datasets are used to investigate three machine learning models. One Feedforward linear neural network model and two convolutional neural networks models (Convolution 2d layer transforms sequential model and Residual block model (ResNet with 9, 34, and 50 layers)). Validation and testing datasets forms a critical part of testing the model’s performance accuracy. The ResNet model records the highest performance accuracy score, of the machine learning models tested. Our CNN image classification model analysis provides a framework for applying machine learning to increase structural interpretation efficiency, and shows that CNN classification models can be applied effectively to geoscience problems. The study provides a starting point to apply unsupervised machine learning approaches to sub-surface structural interpretation workflows.</p>

Radiomics with deep learning models have become popular in computer-aided diagnosis and have outperformed human experts on many clinical tasks. Specifically, radiomic models based on artificial intelligence (AI) are using medical data (i.e., images, molecular data, clinical variables, etc.) for predicting clinical tasks such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD). In this review, we summarized and discussed the radiomic techniques used for ASD analysis. Currently, the limited radiomic work of ASD is related to the variation of morphological features of brain thickness that is different from texture analysis. These techniques are based on imaging shape features that can be used with predictive models for predicting ASD. This review explores the progress of ASD-based radiomics with a brief description of ASD and the current non-invasive technique used to classify between ASD and healthy control (HC) subjects. With AI, new radiomic models using the deep learning techniques will be also described. To consider the texture analysis with deep CNNs, more investigations are suggested to be integrated with additional validation steps on various MRI sites.

Graph neural networks (GNNs) have recently grown in popularity in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) due to their unique ability to ingest relatively unstructured data types as input data. Although some elements of the GNN architecture are conceptually similar in operation to traditional neural networks (and neural network variants), other elements represent a departure from traditional deep learning techniques. This tutorial exposes the power and novelty of GNNs to AI practitioners by collating and presenting details regarding the motivations, concepts, mathematics, and applications of the most common and performant variants of GNNs. Importantly, we present this tutorial concisely, alongside practical examples, thus providing a practical and accessible tutorial on the topic of GNNs.

Problem: Brain imaging studies of mental health and neurodevelopmental disorders have recently included machine learning approaches to identify patients based solely on their brain activation. The goal is to identify brain-related features that generalize from smaller samples of data to larger ones; in the case of neurodevelopmental disorders, finding these patterns can help understand differences in brain function and development that underpin early signs of risk for developmental dyslexia. The success of machine learning classification algorithms on neurofunctional data has been limited to typically homogeneous data sets of few dozens of participants. More recently, larger brain imaging data sets have allowed for deep learning techniques to classify brain states and clinical groups solely from neurofunctional features. Indeed, deep learning techniques can provide helpful tools for classification in healthcare applications, including classification of structural 3D brain images. The adoption of deep learning approaches allows for incremental improvements in classification performance of larger functional brain imaging data sets, but still lacks diagnostic insights about the underlying brain mechanisms associated with disorders; moreover, a related challenge involves providing more clinically-relevant explanations from the neural features that inform classification.Methods: We target this challenge by leveraging two network visualization techniques in convolutional neural network layers responsible for learning high-level features. Using such techniques, we are able to provide meaningful images for expert-backed insights into the condition being classified. We address this challenge using a dataset that includes children diagnosed with developmental dyslexia, and typical reader children.Results: Our results show accurate classification of developmental dyslexia (94.8%) from the brain imaging alone, while providing automatic visualizations of the features involved that match contemporary neuroscientific knowledge (brain regions involved in the reading process for the dyslexic reader group and brain regions associated with strategic control and attention processes for the typical reader group).Conclusions: Our visual explanations of deep learning models turn the accurate yet opaque conclusions from the models into evidence to the condition being studied.
