Assessing the quality of imaging interpretations requires that the results of radiological interpretations be compared with those of subsequent surgical-pathology results, when available. The manual process is inherently slow, tedious and expensive, and unless systematic errors occur in the interpretations, discrepancies are unlikely to be detected. Classical computational methods using Natural Language Processing entail using

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has been associated with liver impairment and abnormalities in liver function tests. However, associations between hepatic impairment and patient health outcomes have not been well-studied in large cohorts. In this US-based, multicenter retrospective cohort study, we analyze the impact of abnormalities in liver function

Plant phenotyping technologies have been developing rapidly over the last 2 decades. Plant sensors are becoming more precise, faster, easier to use and with lower cost. However, there are still several bottleneck issues in plant sensing, including the changing environmental conditions, the great variances on the plant, and the complicated GxTxEinteractions. These issues keep phenotyping difficult
