    摘要: Methods and systems for selecting a cohort group or a patient at risk from a population of patients with mild cognitive impairment. The methods include using a computer configured to perform the steps: receiving normalized learning data from a portion of the population of patients; tuning a set of decision trees on the normalized learning data; receiving patient data from one or more patients of the population, wherein the patient data is independent from the learning data; classifying the patient data with the tuned set of decision trees to obtain patient threshold values; and displaying the patient threshold values.

    摘要: A medical apparatus (901, 100) assists clinicians, nurses or other users in choosing an intervention for the treatment of a patent suffering from an acute dynamic disease, e.g. sepsis. The medical apparatus is based on a method where a model of the disease is adapted or personalized to the patient. To ensure that the apparatus remains capable of predicting the health of the patient, the apparatus is continuously provided with new, more recent patient values and the model is continuously adapted to the new patient values. Since the medical apparatus is configured to be continuously adapted to current state of health, the apparatus is able to assist the user by generating disease management information, e.g. suggestions for medications, to an output device (902, 104).

    摘要: A method for determining the presence or absence of malignant features in medical images, wherein a plurality of base comparison or training images of various types of lesions taken of actual patient is examined by one or more image reading experts to create a first database array. Low-level features of each of the lesions in the same plurality of base comparisons or training images are determined using one or more image processing algorithms to obtain a second database array set. The first and second database array set are combined to create a training database array set which is input to a learning system that discovers/learns a classifier that maps from a subset of the low-level features to the expert's evaluation in the first database array set. The classifier is used to determine the presence of a particular mid-level feature in an image of lesion in a patient based solely on the image.
