    Abstract In the case of pandemics such as COVID-19, the rapid development of medicines addressing the symptoms is necessary to alleviate the pressure on the medical system. One of the key steps in medicine evaluation is the determination of pIC50 factor, which is a negative logarithmic expression of the half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50). Determining this value can be a lengthy and complicated process. A tool allowing for a quick approximation of pIC50 based on the molecular makeup of medicine could be valuable. In this paper, the creation of the artificial intelligence (AI)-based model is performed using a publicly available dataset of molecules and their pIC50 values. The modeling algorithms used are artificial and convolutional neural networks (ANN and CNN). Three approaches are tested-modeling using just molecular properties (MP), encoded SMILES representation of the molecule, and the combination of both input types. Models are evaluated using the coefficient of determination (R2) and mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) in a five-fold cross-validation scheme to assure the validity of the results. The obtained models show that the highest quality regression (R2¯=0.99, σR2¯=0.001; MAPE¯=0.009%, σMAPE¯=0.009), by a large margin, is obtained when using a hybrid neural network trained with both MP and SMILES.

    Abstract Imaging is one of the main tools of modern astronomy-many images are collected each day, and they must be processed. Processing such a large amount of images can be complex, time-consuming, and may require advanced tools. One of the techniques that may be employed is artificial intelligence (AI)-based image detection and classification. In this paper, the research is focused on developing such a system for the problem of the Magellan dataset, which contains 134 satellite images of Venus's surface with individual volcanoes marked with circular labels. Volcanoes are classified into four classes depending on their features. In this paper, the authors apply the You-Only-Look-Once (YOLO) algorithm, which is based on a convolutional neural network (CNN). To apply this technique, the original labels are first converted into a suitable YOLO format. Then, due to the relatively small number of images in the dataset, deterministic augmentation techniques are applied. Hyperparameters of the YOLO network are tuned to achieve the best results, which are evaluated as mean average precision (mAP@0.5) for localization accuracy and F1 score for classification accuracy. The experimental results using cross-vallidation indicate that the proposed method achieved 0.835 mAP@0.5 and 0.826 F1 scores, respectively.

    Abstract In autonomous manufacturing lines, it is very important to detect the faulty operation of robot manipulators to prevent potential damage. In this paper, the application of a genetic programming algorithm (symbolic classifier) with a random selection of hyperparameter values and trained using a 5-fold cross-validation process is proposed to determine expressions for fault detection during robotic manipulator operation, using a dataset that was made publicly available by the original researchers. The original dataset was reduced to a binary dataset (fault vs. normal operation); however, due to the class imbalance random oversampling, and SMOTE methods were applied. The quality of best symbolic expressions (SEs) was based on the highest mean values of accuracy ( <math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mover><mrow><mi>A</mi><mi>C</mi><mi>C</mi></mrow><mo>¯</mo></mover></semantics></math> ), area under receiving operating characteristics curve ( <math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mover><mrow><mi>A</mi><mi>U</mi><mi>C</mi></mrow><mo>¯</mo></mover></semantics></math> ), <math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mover><mrow><mi>P</mi><mi>r</mi><mi>e</mi><mi>c</mi><mi>i</mi><mi>s</mi><mi>i</mi><mi>o</mi><mi>n</mi></mrow><mo>¯</mo></mover></semantics></math> , <math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" ...<br />

    Abstract While basal cell carcinoma is the most common type of skin cancer in humans, its subepidermal presentation is extremely rare. The risk factors for basal cell carcinoma development are well-known, but it remains unclear in which setting the tumor restricts itself to the dermal compartment. We present the fifth known case of subepidermal basal cell carcinoma. However, this particular presentation is unique due to arising beneath a capillary malformation. The patient had previously undergone multiple laser treatments which yielded no success. Initially, the vascular malformation was removed and sent for histopathological diagnosis. After the discovery of basal cell carcinoma, wide surgical resection was performed. The patient had no recurrence up to the last follow-up at 18 months postoperatively. This case demonstrates a new presentation of a very rare condition, but also highlights the importance of histopathological examination and the need for future research on any possible association between laser therapy and carcinogenesis.

    Abstract Hepatitis C is an infectious disease which is caused by the Hepatitis C virus (HCV) and the virus primarily affects the liver. Based on the publicly available dataset used in this paper the idea is to develop a mathematical equation that could be used to detect HCV patients with high accuracy based on the enzymes, proteins, and biomarker values contained in a patient’s blood sample using genetic programming symbolic classification (GPSC) algorithm. Not only that, but the idea was also to obtain a mathematical equation that could detect the progress of the disease i.e., Hepatitis C, Fibrosis, and Cirrhosis using the GPSC algorithm. Since the original dataset was imbalanced (a large number of healthy patients versus a small number of Hepatitis C/Fibrosis/Cirrhosis patients) the dataset was balanced using random oversampling, SMOTE, ADSYN, and Borderline SMOTE methods. The symbolic expressions (mathematical equations) were obtained using the GPSC algorithm using a rigorous process of 5-fold cross-validation with a random hyperparameter search method which had to be developed for this problem. To evaluate each symbolic expression generated with GPSC the mean and standard deviation values of accuracy (ACC), the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve ( <semantics> A U C </semantics> ), precision, recall, and F1-score were obtained. In a simple binary case (healthy vs. Hepatitis C patients) the best case was achieved with a dataset balanced with the Borderline SMOTE method. The results are <semantics> A C C ¯ ± S D ( A C C ) </semantics> , <semantics> A U C ¯ ± S D ( A U C ) </semantics> , <semantics> P r e c i s i o n ¯ ± S D ( P r e c i s i o n ) </semantics> , <semantics> R e c a l l ¯ ± S D ( R e c a l l ) </semantics> , and <semantics> F 1 − s c o r e ¯ ± S D ( F 1 − s c o r e ) </semantics> equal to <semantics> 0.99 ± 5.8 × 10 − 3 </semantics> , <semantics> 0.99 ± 5.4 × 10 − 3 </semantics> , ...

    Abstract In this paper, the urinary bladder cancer diagnostic method which is based on Multi-Layer Perceptron and Laplacian edge detector is presented. The aim of this paper is to investigate the implementation possibility of a simpler method (Multi-Layer Perceptron) alongside commonly used methods, such as Deep Learning Convolutional Neural Networks, for the urinary bladder cancer detection. The dataset used for this research consisted of 1997 images of bladder cancer and 986 images of non-cancer tissue. The results of the conducted research showed that using Multi-Layer Perceptron trained and tested with images pre-processed with Laplacian edge detector are achieving AUC value up to 0.99. When different image sizes are compared it can be seen that the best results are achieved if 50×50 and 100×100 images were used.

    Abstract Inverse kinematic equations allow the determination of the joint angles necessary for the robotic manipulator to place a tool into a predefined position. Determining this equation is vital but a complex work. In this article, an artificial neural network, more specifically, a feed-forward type, multilayer perceptron (MLP), is trained, so that it could be used to calculate the inverse kinematics for a robotic manipulator. First, direct kinematics of a robotic manipulator are determined using Denavit–Hartenberg method and a dataset of 15,000 points is generated using the calculated homogenous transformation matrices. Following that, multiple MLPs are trained with 10,240 different hyperparameter combinations to find the best. Each trained MLP is evaluated using the R 2 and mean absolute error metrics and the architectures of the MLPs that achieved the best results are presented. Results show a successful regression for the first five joints (percentage error being less than 0.1%) but a comparatively poor regression for the final joint due to the configuration of the robotic manipulator.

    Abstract Urinary bladder cancer is one of the most common urinary tract cancers. Standard diagnosis procedure can be invasive and time-consuming. For these reasons, procedure called optical biopsy is introduced. This procedure allows in-vivo evaluation of bladder mucosa without the need for biopsy. Although less invasive and faster, accuracy is often lower. For this reason, machine learning (ML) algorithms are used to increase its accuracy. The issue with ML algorithms is their sensitivity to the amount of input data. In medicine, collection can be time-consuming due to a potentially low number of patients. For these reasons, data augmentation is performed, usually through a series of geometric variations of original images. While such images improve classification performance, the number of new data points and the insight they provide is limited. These issues are a motivation for the application of novel augmentation methods. Authors demonstrate the use of Deep Convolutional Generative Adversarial Networks (DCGAN) for the generation of images. Augmented datasets used for training of commonly used Convolutional Neural Network-based (CNN) architectures (AlexNet and VGG-16) show a significcan performance increase for AlexNet, where AUCmicro reaches values up to 0.99. Average and median results of networks used in grid-search increases. These results point towards the conclusion that GAN-based augmentation has decreased the networks sensitivity to hyperparemeter change.

    Abstract Coronavirus (COVID-19) is a highly infectious disease that has captured the attention of the worldwide public. Modeling of such diseases can be extremely important in the prediction of their impact. While classic, statistical, modeling can provide satisfactory models, it can also fail to comprehend the intricacies contained within the data. In this paper, authors use a publicly available dataset, containing information on infected, recovered, and deceased patients in 406 locations over 51 days (22nd January 2020 to 12th March 2020). This dataset, intended to be a time-series dataset, is transformed into a regression dataset and used in training a multilayer perceptron (MLP) artificial neural network (ANN). The aim of training is to achieve a worldwide model of the maximal number of patients across all locations in each time unit. Hyperparameters of the MLP are varied using a grid search algorithm, with a total of 5376 hyperparameter combinations. Using those combinations, a total of 48384 ANNs are trained (16128 for each patient group-deceased, recovered, and infected), and each model is evaluated using the coefficient of determination (
