As part of arc flash studies, survey pictures of electrical installations need to be manually analyzed. A challenging task is to identify fu… (voir plus)se types, which can be determined from physical characteristics, such as shape, color, and size. To automate this process using deep learning techniques, a new dataset of fuse pictures from past arc flash projects and data from the web was created. Multiple experiments were performed to train a final model, reaching an average precision of 91.06% on the holdout set, which confirms its potential for identification of fuse types in new photos. By identifying fuse types using physical characteristics only, the need to take clear pictures of the label text is eliminated, allowing pictures to be taken away from danger, thereby improving the safety of workers. All the resources needed to repeat the experiments are openly accessible, including the code and datasets.

Introduction There is a cumulative risk of 20–40% of developing brain metastases (BM) in solid cancers. Stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) en… (voir plus)ables the application of high focal doses of radiation to a volume and is often used for BM treatment. However, SRT can cause adverse radiation effects (ARE), such as radiation necrosis, which sometimes cause irreversible damage to the brain. It is therefore of clinical interest to identify patients at a high risk of developing ARE. We hypothesized that models trained with radiomics features, deep learning (DL) features, and patient characteristics or their combination can predict ARE risk in patients with BM before SRT. Methods Gadolinium-enhanced T1-weighted MRIs and characteristics from patients treated with SRT for BM were collected for a training and testing cohort (N = 1,404) and a validation cohort (N = 237) from a separate institute. From each lesion in the training set, radiomics features were extracted and used to train an extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) model. A DL model was trained on the same cohort to make a separate prediction and to extract the last layer of features. Different models using XGBoost were built using only radiomics features, DL features, and patient characteristics or a combination of them. Evaluation was performed using the area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic curve on the external dataset. Predictions for individual lesions and per patient developing ARE were investigated. Results The best-performing XGBoost model on a lesion level was trained on a combination of radiomics features and DL features (AUC of 0.71 and recall of 0.80). On a patient level, a combination of radiomics features, DL features, and patient characteristics obtained the best performance (AUC of 0.72 and recall of 0.84). The DL model achieved an AUC of 0.64 and recall of 0.85 per lesion and an AUC of 0.70 and recall of 0.60 per patient. Conclusion Machine learning models built on radiomics features and DL features extracted from BM combined with patient characteristics show potential to predict ARE at the patient and lesion levels. These models could be used in clinical decision making, informing patients on their risk of ARE and allowing physicians to opt for different therapies.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Imaging assessment of an immunotherapy response in glioblastoma is challenging due to overlap in the appearance of t… (voir plus)reatment-related changes with tumor progression. Our purpose was to determine whether MR imaging radiomics-based machine learning can predict progression-free survival and overall survival in patients with glioblastoma on programmed death-ligand 1 inhibition immunotherapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Post hoc analysis was performed of a multicenter trial on the efficacy of durvalumab in glioblastoma (n = 113). Radiomics tumor features on pretreatment and first on-treatment time point MR imaging were extracted. The random survival forest algorithm was applied to clinical and radiomics features from pretreatment and first on-treatment MR imaging from a subset of trial sites (n = 60–74) to train a model to predict long overall survival and progression-free survival and was tested externally on data from the remaining sites (n = 29–43). Model performance was assessed using the concordance index and dynamic area under the curve from different time points. RESULTS: The mean age was 55.2 (SD, 11.5) years, and 69% of patients were male. Pretreatment MR imaging features had a poor predictive value for overall survival and progression-free survival (concordance index  = 0.472–0.524). First on-treatment MR imaging features had high predictive value for overall survival (concordance index = 0.692–0.750) and progression-free survival (concordance index = 0.680–0.715). CONCLUSIONS: A radiomics-based machine learning model from first on-treatment MR imaging predicts survival in patients with glioblastoma on programmed death-ligand 1 inhibition immunotherapy.
