Article Label-Free Retraining for Improved Ground Plane Segmentation(Springer, 2022) Uzyıldırım, Furkan Eren; Özuysal, MustafaDue to increased potential applications of unmanned aerial vehicles over urban areas, algorithms for the safe landing of these devices have become more critical. One way to ensure a safe landing is to locate the ground plane regions of images captured by the device camera that are free of obstacles by deep semantic segmentation networks. In this paper, we study the performance of semantic segmentation networks trained for this purpose at a particular altitude and location. We show that a variation in altitude and location significantly decreases network performance. We then propose an approach to retrain the network using only a new set of images and without marking the ground regions in this novel training set. Our experiments show that we can convert a network’s operating range from low to high altitudes and vice versa by label-free retraining.Article Citation - WoS: 55Citation - Scopus: 56Evaluation of an Artificial Intelligence System for Diagnosing Scaphoid Fracture on Direct Radiography(Springer Verlag, 2020) Özkaya, Emre; Topal, Fatih Esad; Bulut, Tuğrul; Gürsoy, Merve; Özuysal, Mustafa; Karakaya, ZeynepPurpose The aim of this study is to determine the diagnostic performance of artificial intelligence with the use of convolutional neural networks (CNN) for detecting scaphoid fractures on anteroposterior wrist radiographs. The performance of the deep learning algorithm was also compared with that of the emergency department (ED) physician and two orthopaedic specialists (less experienced and experienced in the hand surgery). Methods A total 390 patients with AP wrist radiographs were included in the study. The presence/absence of the fracture on radiographs was confirmed via CT. The diagnostic performance of the CNN, ED physician and two orthopaedic specialists (less experienced and experienced) as measured by AUC, sensitivity, specificity, F-Score and Youden index, to detect scaphoid fractures was evaluated and compared between the groups. Results The CNN had 76% sensitivity and 92% specificity, 0.840 AUC, 0.680 Youden index and 0.826Fscore values in identifying scaphoid fractures. The experienced orthopaedic specialist had the best diagnostic performance according to AUC. While CNN's performance was similar to a less experienced orthopaedic specialist, it was better than the ED physician. Conclusion The deep learning algorithm has the potential to be used for diagnosing scaphoid fractures on radiographs. Artificial intelligence can be useful for scaphoid fracture diagnosis particularly in the absence of an experienced orthopedist or hand surgeon.
