New Arabic Medical Dataset for Diseases Classification [PDF]
The Arabic language suffers from a great shortage of datasets suitable for training deep learning models, and the existing ones include general non-specialized classifications. In this work, we introduce a new Arab medical dataset, which includes two thousand medical documents collected from several Arabic medical websites, in addition to the Arab ...

Pediatric Bone Age Assessment Using Deep Convolutional Neural Networks [PDF]
Skeletal bone age assessment is a common clinical practice to diagnose endocrine and metabolic disorders in child development. In this paper, we describe a fully automated deep learning approach to the problem of bone age assessment using data from Pediatric Bone Age Challenge organized by RSNA 2017.

World-wide Evidence for Gender Difference in Sociality [PDF]
One of the most contested questions about human behaviour is whether there are inherent sex or gender differences in the formation and maintenance of social bonds. On one hand, female and male brains are structurally almost identical, and while there are sex differences in the endocrine system, these are small, while much of gendered identity and ...

Phenotypic spandrel: absolute discrimination and ligand antagonism [PDF]
We consider the general problem of sensitive and specific discrimination between biochemical species. An important instance is immune discrimination between self and not-self, where it is also observed experimentally that ligands just below discrimination threshold negatively impact response, a phenomenon called antagonism.

Improving The Diagnosis of Thyroid Cancer by Machine Learning and Clinical Data [PDF]
Thyroid cancer is a common endocrine carcinoma that occurs in the thyroid gland. Much effort has been invested in improving its diagnosis, and thyroidectomy remains the primary treatment method. A successful operation without unnecessary side injuries relies on an accurate preoperative diagnosis. Current human assessment of thyroid nodule malignancy is
