Recently, the Rome proposal updated the definition of exacerbation of COPD (ECOPD). However, such severity grade has not yet demonstrated intermediate-term clinical relevance. What is the association between the Rome severity classification and short-term and intermediate-term clinical outcomes? We retrospectively grouped hospitalized patients with...

The severity of craniofacial microsomia (CFM) is generally classified using the Orbit, Mandible, Ear, Soft tissue, Nerve (OMENS) classification score. The global assessment of the Phenotypic Assessment Tool for Craniofacial Microsomia (PAT-CFM), is a pictorial modification of the OMENS classification. The aim of this study was to assess the interra...

Introduction Paddy leaf diseases have a catastrophic influence on the quality and quantity of paddy grain production. The detection and identification of the intensity of various paddy infections are critical for high-quality crop production. Methods In this paper, infections in paddy leaves are considered for the identification of illness severity...
According to the EU Directive 2010/63, all animal procedures must be classified as non-recovery, mild, moderate or severe. Several examples are included in the Directive to help in severity classification. Since the implementation of the Directive, different publications and guidelines have been disseminated on the topic. However, due to the large ...

One of the most common and challenging medical conditions to deal with in old-aged people is the occurrence of knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Manual diagnosis of this disease involves observing X-ray images of the knee area and classifying it under five grades using the Kellgren–Lawrence (KL) system. This requires the physician’s expertise, suitable ex...
Effective accident management acts as a vital part of emergency and traffic control systems. In such systems, accident data can be collected from different sources (unmanned aerial vehicles, surveillance cameras, on-site people, etc.) and images are considered a major source. Accident site photos and measurements are the most important evidence. At...

Artificial intelligence techniques are widely used in solving medical problems. Recently, researchers have used various deep learning techniques for the severity classification of Chikungunya disease. But these techniques suffer from overfitting and hyper-parameters tuning problems. In this paper, an artificial intelligence-based cyber-physical sys...
