Improving Pediatric Low-Grade Neuroepithelial Tumors Molecular Subtype Identification Using a Novel AUROC Loss Function for Convolutional Neural Networks

no code implementations5 Feb 2024 Khashayar Namdar, Matthias W. Wagner, Cynthia Hawkins, Uri Tabori, Birgit B. Ertl-Wagner, Farzad Khalvati

The baseline model was trained using binary cross entropy (BCE), and achieved an AUROC of 86. 11% for differentiating BRAF fusion and BRAF V600E mutations, which was improved to 87. 71% using our proposed AUROC loss function (p-value 0. 045).

Non-invasive Liver Fibrosis Screening on CT Images using Radiomics

no code implementations25 Nov 2022 Jay J. Yoo, Khashayar Namdar, Sean Carey, Sandra E. Fischer, Chris McIntosh, Farzad Khalvati, Patrik Rogalla

The combination of hyperparameters and features that yielded the highest AUC was a logistic regression model with inputs features of maximum, energy, kurtosis, skewness, and small area high gray level emphasis extracted from non-contrast enhanced NC CT normalized using Gamma correction with $\gamma$ = 1. 5 (AUC, 0. 7833; 95% CI: 0. 7821, 0. 7845), (sensitivity, 0. 9091; 95% CI: 0. 9091, 0. 9091).
