Application of Artificial Intelligence in Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography

Enhancing Risk Stratification on Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography: The Role of Artificial Intelligence

PURPOSE

To describe and outline the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in assisting coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) in enhancing risk stratification.

METHODS

A comprehensive review of the literature was performed to identify published work investigating the utility of applying AI to CCTA.

FINDINGS

CCTA is an excellent diagnostic tool for the detection of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. The noninvasive nature and high diagnostic accuracy have made CCTA a viable alternative to invasive coronary angiography to detect luminal stenosis. However, it is now understood that stenosis is just one factor that predicts cardiac risk and other factors need to be considered. CCTA-derived plaque biomarkers have since emerged as established predictors of cardiac events to improve risk stratification. Despite awareness of these biomarkers, they are still yet to be incorporated into routine clinical practice. The major barriers to implementation include the specialized skills required for image evaluation and the time intensive nature of analysis. With the many recent advancements in the technology, AI presents itself as a promising solution. AI is attractive because it has the potential to rapidly automate technically challenging tasks with exceptional accuracy.

IMPLICATIONS

Developments in the field of AI are occurring at a rapid rate. There is already increasing evidence of the potential AI has to greatly improve the utility of CCTA by improving analysis time and extracting additional prognostic data from new plaque biomarkers. There are, however, technical and ethical challenges that need to be considered before implementing such technology into routine clinical practice.

Artificial Intelligence in Cardiology: An Australian Perspective

Significant advances have been made in artificial intelligence technology in recent years. Many health care applications have been investigated to assist clinicians and the technology is close to being integrated into routine clinical practice. The high prevalence of cardiac disease in Australia places overwhelming demands on the existing health care system, challenging its capacity to provide quality patient care. Artificial intelligence has emerged as a promising solution. This discussion paper provides an Australian perspective on the current state of artificial intelligence in cardiology, including the benefits and challenges of implementation. This paper highlights some current artificial intelligence applications in cardiology, while also detailing challenges such as data privacy, ethical considerations, and integration within existing health infrastructures. Overall, this paper aims to provide insights into the potential benefits of artificial intelligence in cardiology, while also acknowledging the barriers that need to be addressed to ensure safe and effective implementation into an Australian health system.

The Application of Artificial Intelligence and Big Data Technology in Basketball Sports Training

INTRODUCTION: Basketball involves a wide variety of complex human motions. Thus, recognizing them with Precision is essential for both training and competition. The subjective perceptions and experiences of the trainers are heavily relied upon while training players. Big data and Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology may be utilized to track athlete training. Sensing their motions may also help instructors make choices that dramatically improve athletic ability. OBJECTIVES: This research paper developed an Action Recognition technique for teaching basketball players using Big Data, and CapsNet called ARBIGNet METHODS: The technique uses a network that is trained using large amounts of data from basketball games called a Whale Optimized Artificial Neural Network (WO-ANN) which is collected using capsules. In order to determine the spatiotemporal information aspects of basketball sports training from videos, this study first employs the Convolution Random Forest (ConvRF) unit. The second accomplishment of this study is creating the Attention Random Forest (AttRF) unit, which combines the RF with the attention mechanism. The study used big data analytics for fast data transmissions. The unit scans each site randomly, focusing more on the region where the activity occurs. The network architecture is then created by enhancing the standard encoder-decoder paradigm. Then, using the Enhanced Darknet network model, the spatiotemporal data in the video is encoded. The AttRF structure is replaced by the standard RF at the decoding step. The ARBIGNet architecture is created by combining these components. RESULTS: The efficiency of the suggested strategy implemented on action recognition in basketball sports training has been tested via experiments, which have yielded 95.5% mAP and 98.8% accuracy.

Investigation on human rights ethics in artificial intelligence researches with library literature analysis method

Purpose

The purpose of this paper was to identify whether artificial intelligence (AI) products can possess human rights, how to define their rights and obligations and what ethical standards they should follow. In this study, the human rights ethical dilemma encountered in the application and development of AI technology has been focused on and analyzed in detail in the light of the existing research status of AI ethics.

Design/methodology/approach

In this study, first of all, the development and application of AI technology, as well as the concept and characteristics of human rights ethics, are introduced. Second, the human rights ethics of AI technology are introduced in detail, including the human rights endowment of AI machines, the fault liability of AI machines and the moral orientation of AI machines. Finally, the approaches to human rights ethics are proposed to ensure that AI technology serves human beings. Every link of its research, production and application should be strictly managed and supervised.

Findings

The results show that the research in this study can provide help for the related problems encountered in AI practice. Intelligent library integrates human rights protection organically so that readers or users can experience more intimate service in this system. It is a kind of library operation mode with more efficient and convenient characteristics, which is based on digital, networked and intelligent information science. It aims at using the greenest way and digital means to realize the reading and research of human rights protection literature in the literature analysis method.

Originality/value

Intelligent library is the future development mode of new libraries, which can realize broad interconnection and sharing. It is people-oriented and can make intelligent management and service and establish the importance of the principle of human rights protection and the specific idea of the principle. The development of science and technology brings not only convenience to people's social life but also questions to be thought. People should reduce its potential harm, so as to make AI technology continue to benefit humankind.
