The authors looked at how the length of an audio clip used of a song impacted the ability to properly classify it by musical genre.
Read More...Machine learning for the diagnosis of malaria: a pilot study of transfer learning techniques
The diagnosis of malaria remains one of the major hurdles to eradicating the disease, especially among poorer populations. Here, the authors use machine learning to improve the accuracy of deep learning algorithms that automate the diagnosis of malaria using images of blood smears from patients, which could make diagnosis easier and faster for many.
Read More...Explainable AI tools provide meaningful insight into rationale for prediction in machine learning models
The authors compare current machine learning algorithms with a new Explainable AI algorithm that produces a human-comprehensible decision tree alongside predictions.
Read More...Stress-induced genetic memory inheritance and retention in Planarian biological model
This study explored whether planaria, known for their regenerative abilities, can retain learned memories after regeneration and how stressors like alcohol affect memory.
Read More...A natural language processing approach to skill identification in the job market
The authors looked at using machine learning to identify skills needed to apply for certain jobs, specifically looking at different techniques to parse apart the text. They found that Bidirectional Encoder Representation of Transforms (BERT) performed best.

Using a convolution neural network, these authors show machine learning can clinically diagnose breast cancer with high accuracy.
Read More...Decline in vocabulary richness in individuals with Alzheimer's disease
The authors looked at how vocabulary is impacted in Alzheimer's disease and whether it could be used a predictor of disease onset.
Read More...Predictive modeling of cardiovascular disease using exercise-based electrocardiography
The authors looked factors that could lead to earlier diagnosis of cardiovascular disease thereby improving patient outcomes. They found that advances in imaging and electrocardiography contribute to earlier detection of cardiovascular disease.

Levy & Levy tackle the optimization of the coronary artery bypass graft, a life-saving surgical technique that treats artery blockage due to coronary heart disease. The authors develop a novel auto-suturing method that saves time, allows for an increased number of sutures, and improves graft quality over hand suturing. The authors also show that increasing the number of sutures from four to five with their new method significantly improves graft quality. These promising findings may help improve outcomes for patients undergoing surgery to treat coronary heart disease.
