Predictive Patient Segmentation (PPS)

This research was conducted by Usman Ahmed and Jerry Chun-Wei Lin. It was published in The Journal of Supercomputing. The study proposes a deep learning model that is robust and capable of handling highly uncertain inputs, which can improve the performance of machine learning models, categorization of radiographic images, risk of misdiagnosis in medical imaging, and accuracy of medical diagnoses.

This research was conducted by a large team of researchers including Sarthak Pati, Siddhesh P.
