Abstract Background Ultrasonography (US) and 99mTechnetium‐sestamibi scintigraphy (99mTc‐MIBI) are currently first‐line imaging modalities to localize parathyroid adenomas with sensitivities of 80% and 84%, respectively. Therefore, finding other modalities to further improve the diagnostic accuracy for preoperative localization is critically needed ...

Medical Knowledge-Guided Deep Curriculum Learning for Elbow Fracture Diagnosis from X-Ray Images [PDF]
Elbow fractures are one of the most common fracture types. Diagnoses on elbow fractures often need the help of radiographic imaging to be read and analyzed by a specialized radiologist with years of training. Thanks to the recent advances of deep learning, a model that can classify and detect different types of bone fractures needs only hours of ...

Pyrocarbon hemiarthroplasty and the shoulder: biomechanical and clinical results of an emerging treatment option [PDF]
While shoulder hemiarthroplasty is still used to treat young patients with shoulder pathology, the use of this procedure has substantially declined in recent years due to its significant complication profile.

Knowledge-Guided Multiview Deep Curriculum Learning for Elbow Fracture Classification [PDF]
Elbow fracture diagnosis often requires patients to take both frontal and lateral views of elbow X-ray radiographs. In this paper, we propose a multiview deep learning method for an elbow fracture subtype classification task. Our strategy leverages transfer learning by first training two single-view models, one for frontal view and the other for ...

Stable $π$-radical 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) adsorbed at the elbows of $22\times\sqrt{3}$ reconstructed Au(111) [PDF]
Stable organic radicals serve as model systems for investigating metal-free magnetic phenomena at (sub)nanometer length scales. We have investigated at the single-molecule level the stable $\pi$-radical 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) adsorbed at the elbow sites of the $22\times\sqrt{3}$ reconstructed Au(111) surface.

Universal and Automatic Elbow Detection for Learning the Effective Number of Components in Model Selection Problems [PDF]
We design a Universal Automatic Elbow Detector (UAED) for deciding the effective number of components in model selection problems. The relationship with the information criteria widely employed in the literature is also discussed. The proposed UAED does not require the knowledge of a likelihood function and can be easily applied in diverse applications,

Spectral information criterion for automatic elbow detection [PDF]
We introduce a generalized information criterion that contains other well-known information criteria, such as Bayesian information Criterion (BIC) and Akaike information criterion (AIC), as special cases. Furthermore, the proposed spectral information criterion (SIC) is also more general than the other information criteria, e.g., since the knowledge of

Stop using the elbow criterion for k-means and how to choose the number of clusters instead [PDF]
A major challenge when using k-means clustering often is how to choose the parameter k, the number of clusters. In this letter, we want to point out that it is very easy to draw poor conclusions from a common heuristic, the "elbow method". Better alternatives have been known in literature for a long time, and we want to draw attention to some of these ...
