The Lancet, 2019 The ideal number of drugs needed and treatment duration are crucial issues in the management of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB). Thus, we read with interest the Article by the Collaborative Group for the Meta-Analysis of Individual Patient Data in MDR-TB treatment–2017,1 the results of which support our proposal,2 from 2015, to classify anti ...

TBDLNet: a network for classifying multidrug-resistant and drug-sensitive tuberculosis [PDF]
Engineering Reports (2023), 2023 This paper proposes applying a novel deep-learning model, TBDLNet, to recognize CT images to classify multidrug-resistant and drug-sensitive tuberculosis automatically. The pre-trained ResNet50 is selected to extract features. Three randomized neural networks are used to alleviate the overfitting problem.
