Breast cancer risk prediction using machine learning: a systematic review.

Background: Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related fatalities among women worldwide. Conventional screening and risk prediction models primarily rely on demographic and patient clinical history to devise policies and estimate likelihood. However, recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) techniques, particularly deep learning (DL), have shown promise in the development of personalized risk models. These models leverage individual patient information obtained from medical imaging and associated reports. In this systematic review, we thoroughly investigated the existing literature on the application of DL to digital mammography, radiomics, genomics, and clinical information for breast cancer risk assessment. We critically analyzed these studies and discussed their findings, highlighting the promising prospects of DL techniques for breast cancer risk prediction. Additionally, we explored ongoing research initiatives and potential future applications of AI-driven approaches to further improve breast cancer risk prediction, thereby facilitating more effective screening and personalized risk management strategies. Objective and methods: This study presents a comprehensive overview of imaging and non-imaging features used in breast cancer risk prediction using traditional and AI models. The features reviewed in this study included imaging, radiomics, genomics, and clinical features. Furthermore, this survey systematically presented DL methods developed for breast cancer risk prediction, aiming to be useful for both beginners and advanced-level researchers. Results: A total of 600 articles were identified, 20 of which met the set criteria and were selected. Parallel benchmarking of DL models, along with natural language processing (NLP) applied to imaging and non-imaging features, could allow clinicians and researchers to gain greater awareness as they consider the clinical deployment or development of new models. This review provides a comprehensive guide for understanding the current status of breast cancer risk assessment using AI. Conclusion: This study offers investigators a different perspective on the use of AI for breast cancer risk prediction, incorporating numerous imaging and non-imaging features.

Quantum field lens coding and classification algorithm to predict measurement outcomes.

This study develops a method to implement a quantum field lens coding and classification algorithm for two quantum double-field (QDF) system models: 1- a QDF model, and 2- a QDF lens coding model by a DF computation (DFC). This method determines entanglement entropy (EE) by implementing QDF operators in a quantum circuit. The physical link between the two system models is a quantum field lens coding algorithm (QF-LCA), which is a QF lens distance-based, implemented on real N -qubit machines. This is with the possibility to train the algorithm for making strong predictions on phase transitions as the shared objective of both models. In both system models, QDF transformations are simulated by a DFC algorithm where QDF data are collected and analyzed to represent energy states and transitions, and determine entanglement based on EE. The method gives a list of steps to simulate and optimize any thermodynamic system on macro and micro-scale observations, as presented in this article:•The implementation of QF-LCA on quantum computers with EE measurement under a QDF transformation.•Validation of QF-LCA as implemented compared to quantum Fourier transform (QFT) and its inverse, QFT - 1 .•Quantum artificial intelligence (QAI) features by classifying QDF with strong measurement outcome predictions.

Secure OFDM with Peak-to-Average Power Ratio Reduction Using the Spectral Phase of Chaotic Signals.

In this paper, a new physical layer security technique is proposed for Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) communication systems. The security is achieved by modifying the OFDM symbols using the phase information of chaos in the frequency spectrum. In addition, this scheme reduces the Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR), which is one of the major drawbacks of OFDM. The Selected Mapping (SLM) technique for PAPR reduction is employed to exploit the random characteristics of chaotic sequences. The reduction with this algorithm is shown to be similar to that of other SLM schemes, but it has lower computational complexity and side information does not have to be sent to the receiver. The security of this technique stems from the noise like behavior of chaotic sequences and their dependence on the initial conditions of the chaotic generator (which are used as the key). Even a slight difference in the initial conditions will result in a different phase sequence, which prevents an eavesdropper from recovering the transmitted OFDM symbols.

Two Class Pruned Log Message Anomaly Detection.

Log messages are widely used in cloud servers and other systems. Millions of logs are generated each day which makes them important for anomaly detection. However, they are complex unstructured text messages which makes this task difficult. In this paper, a hybrid log message anomaly detection technique is proposed which employs pruning of positive and negative logs. Reliable positive log messages are first selected using a Gaussian mixture model algorithm. Then reliable negative logs are selected using the K-means, Gaussian mixture model and Dirichlet process Gaussian mixture model methods iteratively. It is shown that the precision for positive and negative logs with pruning is high. Anomaly detection is done using a deep learning long short-term memory network. The proposed model is evaluated using the well-known BGL, Openstack, and Thunderbird data sets. The results obtained indicate that the proposed model performs better than several well-known algorithms.

Modulation Classification of Underwater Communication with Deep Learning Network.

Automatic modulation recognition has successfully used various machine learning methods and achieved certain results. As a subarea of machine learning, deep learning has made great progress in recent years and has made remarkable progress in the field of image and language processing. Deep learning requires a large amount of data support. As a communication field with a large amount of data, there is an inherent advantage of applying deep learning. However, the extensive application of deep learning in the field of communication has not yet been fully developed, especially in underwater acoustic communication. In this paper, we mainly discuss the modulation recognition process which is an important part of communication process by using the deep learning method. Different from the common machine learning methods that require feature extraction, the deep learning method does not require feature extraction and obtains more effects than common machine learning.

Automated localization of whales in coastal fjords.

Localization and tracking of vocalizing marine mammals are powerful tools for understanding and mitigating the impacts of anthropogenic stressors such as vessel noise on habitat use of cetaceans. A large-aperture hydrophone network has been installed in the Kitimat Fjord System, an ecologically, culturally, and economically valued marine environment in northern British Columbia, Canada. This network consists of four synchronized bottom-mounted hydrophones that permanently record and radio-transmit data to a land-based laboratory. An automated system has been developed which includes routines to localize transient bio-acoustic signals from three or more streaming hydrophones in near real-time. These routines comprise the correlation of hydrophone signals, the construction of a time lag model, and signal localization and error estimation from a spatial likelihood surface. The localization method was tested experimentally and subsequently applied to vocalizations from humpback whales, fin whales, and killer whales. Refractive and reflective sound propagation effects in the confined fjords are assessed using ray tracing propagation models. Automated localization results are compared to ground-truth data and shown to provide good accuracy.

Joint Transmit Antenna Selection and Power Allocation for ISDF Relaying Mobile-to-Mobile Sensor Networks.

The outage probability (OP) performance of multiple-relay incremental-selective decode-and-forward (ISDF) relaying mobile-to-mobile (M2M) sensor networks with transmit antenna selection (TAS) over N-Nakagami fading channels is investigated. Exact closed-form OP expressions for both optimal and suboptimal TAS schemes are derived. The power allocation problem is formulated to determine the optimal division of transmit power between the broadcast and relay phases. The OP performance under different conditions is evaluated via numerical simulation to verify the analysis. These results show that the optimal TAS scheme has better OP performance than the suboptimal scheme. Further, the power allocation parameter has a significant influence on the OP performance.
