Microsoft to build AI model for detecting cancer: All the details – ET HealthWorld

Microsoft to build AI model for detecting cancer: All the details – ET HealthWorld

The model will be trained on up to four million digitised microscopy slides across multiple types of cancer, from Paige’s unmatched petabyte-scale archive of clinical data. Paige will utilise Microsoft’s advanced supercomputing infrastructure to train the technology at scale and ultimately deploy it to hospitals and laboratories across the globe using Azure.

Detecting rapidly mutating bacteria and viruses with AutoPLP – ET HealthWorld

Detecting rapidly mutating bacteria and viruses with AutoPLP – ET HealthWorld

Washington: As we have learned from the COVID-19 pandemic, the microorganisms that cause various diseases can rapidly change into versions that avoid detection and treatment. However, researchers presenting in ACS Infectious Diseases have discovered a process that could aid in detecting these elusive infections. Their “AutoPLP” approach creates nucleic acid probes that are quick, accurate, … Read more

AI performs poorly in detecting Covid by listening to cough: Study – ET HealthWorld

London: The AI classifiers trained on audio recordings cannot accurately predict whether someone has Covid-19 by analysing the sound of their coughs, according to the study led by the UK’s Alan Turing Institute. As first reported in a paper from researchers led by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, there were claims that AI could detect … Read more

Covid-19: Are we detecting coronavirus the right way? New researches pose questions

Covid-19: Are we detecting coronavirus the right way? New researches pose questions

Is Covid-19 only a respiratory illness? This was the question that scientists asked months ago. Now, the researchers are wondering: Is Covid-19 primarily a respiratory illness? Are we testing in the right manner to diagnose Covid-19 or understand SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus infection correctly? Covid-19 has a gut connection. It is no longer just a respiratory illness … Read more
