Ensemble of Convolutional Neural Networks for StrokePrediction: Towards Improved Diagnostic Accuracy

The paper presents an intelligent system that predicts stroke risk using eleven clinical features and evaluates seven supervised machine learning algorithms. Ensemble methods—Random Forest, Stacking Classifier, and Bagging Classifier—achieved the highest accuracies, reaching 99.52%, while other models such as KNN, TabNet, and a custom feedforward network also performed well. The study demonstrates that ensemble approaches are particularly effective for stroke classification tasks.

From Continuous Predictors to Clinical Thresholds: Early Evidence on Performance Trade-offs of Guideline-Based Categorisation for Ischaemic Stroke Outcome Prediction

arXiv:2608. 05203v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Machine learning models achieve strong predictive accuracy for 90-day outcome prediction in acute ischaemic stroke, yet clinical adoption is limited by the misalignment of model explanations with clinicians' reasoning.

Transforming Heart Disease Prediction with Advanced Machine Learning Techniques

The study evaluates several machine‑learning classifiers for predicting heart disease using two public datasets, each with 14 health‑related attributes. Performance metrics such as MAE, RAE, accuracy, precision, recall, and F‑measure were used, revealing that SVM performed best on the UCI data while Simple Cart excelled on the Kaggle data. The authors conclude that well‑tuned ML models can aid early heart‑disease diagnosis and suggest future work on hybrid methods and newer datasets.

A Deep Multiscale Neural Network for Accurate Neurological Disorder Detection from MRI Scans and Real-Time Web Deployment

Neurological disorders involve diverse pathologies of the brain and nervous system, making early and accurate detection essential. While many deep CNNs have been developed for MRI-based classification of neurological disorders, most are optimized for binary tasks and often fail to capture the multi-class features needed to distinguish subtle anatomical differences across conditions.

Deep Learning Segmentation of Diffusion-Weighted MRI Acute Ischaemic Stroke: A Pragmatic Evaluation Across Three Datasets

The study evaluated a pragmatic deep‑learning approach for segmenting acute ischemic stroke lesions on diffusion‑weighted MRI. Using a self‑configured nnU‑Net trained on 1,744 cases and tested on 436, the baseline model achieved a median Dice similarity coefficient of 0.84, outperforming the DeepISLES ensemble, especially for smaller infarcts. The approach required minimal preprocessing and fast inference, suggesting it could streamline clinical stroke imaging workflows.
