AbstractIn this paper we analyse the performance of machine learning methods in predicting patient information such as age or sex solely from retinal imaging modalities in a heterogeneous clinical population. Our dataset consists of N = 135,667 fundus images and N = 85,536 volumetric OCT scans. Deep learning models were trained to predict the patient’s age and sex from fundus images, OCT cross sections and OCT volumes. For sex prediction, a ROC AUC of 0.80 was achieved for fundus images, 0.84 for OCT cross sections and 0.90 for OCT volumes. Age prediction mean absolute errors of 6.328 years for fundus, 5.625 years for OCT cross sections and 4.541 for OCT volumes were observed. We assess the performance of OCT scans containing different biomarkers and note a peak performance of AUC = 0.88 for OCT cross sections and 0.95 for volumes when there is no pathology on scans. Performance drops in case of drusen, fibrovascular pigment epitheliuum detachment and geographic atrophy present. We conclude that deep learning based methods are capable of classifying the patient’s sex and age from color fundus photography and OCT for a broad spectrum of patients irrespective of underlying disease or image quality. Non-random sex prediction using fundus images seems only possible if the eye fovea and optic disc are visible.

AbstractThe clinical treatment planning of coronary heart disease requires hemodynamic parameters to provide proper guidance. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is gradually used in the simulation of cardiovascular hemodynamics. However, for the patient-specific model, the complex operation and high computational cost of CFD hinder its clinical application. To deal with these problems, we develop cardiovascular hemodynamic point datasets and a dual sampling channel deep learning network, which can analyze and reproduce the relationship between the cardiovascular geometry and internal hemodynamics. The statistical analysis shows that the hemodynamic prediction results of deep learning are in agreement with the conventional CFD method, but the calculation time is reduced 600-fold. In terms of over 2 million nodes, prediction accuracy of around 90%, computational efficiency to predict cardiovascular hemodynamics within 1 second, and universality for evaluating complex arterial system, our deep learning method can meet the needs of most situations.

AbstractAimAn early characterization of drug-induced cardiotoxicity may be possible by combining comprehensive in vitro pro-arrhythmia assay and deep learning techniques. The goal of this study was to develop a deep learning method to automatically detect irregular beating rhythm as well as abnormal waveforms of field potentials in an in vitro cardiotoxicity assay using human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC) derived cardiomyocytes and multi-electrode array (MEA) system.Methods and ResultsWe included field potential waveforms from 380 experiments which obtained by application of some cardioactive drugs on healthy and/or patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cells derived cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CM). We employed convolutional and recurrent neural networks, in order to develop a new method for automatic classification of field potential recordings without using any hand-engineered features. In the proposed method, a preparation phase was initially applied to split 60-second long recordings into a series of 5-second long windows. Thereafter, the classification phase comprising of two main steps was designed. In the first step, 5-second long windows were classified using a designated convolutional neural network (CNN). In the second step, the results of 5-second long window assessments were used as the input sequence to a recurrent neural network (RNN). The output was then compared to electrophysiologist-level arrhythmia (irregularity or abnormal waveforms) detection, resulting in 0.84 accuracy, 0.84 sensitivity, 0.85 specificity, and 0.88 precision.ConclusionA novel deep learning approach based on a two-step CNN-RNN method can be used for automated analysis of “irregularity or abnormal waveforms” in an in vitro model of cardiotoxicity experiments.
