The human tongue has been long believed to be a window to provide important insights into a patient's health in medicine. The present study introduced a novel approach to predict patient age, gender, and weight inferences based on tongue images using pretrained deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs). Our results demonstrated that the deep CNN models (e.g., ResNeXt) trained on dorsal tongue images produced excellent results for age prediction with a Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.71 and a mean absolute error (MAE) of 8.5 years. We also obtained an excellent classification of gender, with a mean accuracy of 80% and an AUC (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve) of 88%. ResNeXt model also obtained a moderate level of accuracy for weight prediction, with a Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.39 and a MAE of 9.06 kg. These findings support our hypothesis that the human tongue contains crucial information about a patient. This study demonstrated the feasibility of using the pretrained deep CNNs along with a large tongue image dataset to develop computational models to predict patient medical conditions for noninvasive, convenient, and inexpensive patient health monitoring and diagnosis.

Databases that represent sets of pre-compiled information on biological relationships and associations, interactions and facts which have been extracted from the biomedical literature using Ariadne's MedScan technology. ResNet databases store information harvested from the entire PubMed in a formal structure that allows searching, retrieval and updating by Pathway Studio user. ResNet is seamlessly installed when Pathway Studio is installed. There are several available ResNet databases: *ResNet Mammalian Database includes data for Human, Rat, and Mouse *ResNet Plant Database has data on Arabidopsis, Rice and several other plants. Features of ResNet: *All extracted relations have linked access to the original article or abstract *Synonyms and homologs are included to maintain gene identity and to obviate redundancy in search results *Users can update ResNet as often as required using the MedScan technology built into all Ariadne products *Updates are made available by Ariadne every quarter To purchase Pathway Studio software with ResNet database, for information, or to schedule a web demonstration, call our sales department at (240) 453-6272, or (866) 340-5040 (toll free).

View all literature mentionsComputer vision and machine learning software library which provides a common infrastructure for computer vision applications. The algorithms within the library can be used to detect and recognize faces, identify objects, classify human actions in videos, track camera movements and moving objects, extract 3D models of objects, produce 3D point clouds from stereo cameras, stitch images together to produce a high resolution image of an entire scene, find similar images from an image database, and follow eye movements, recognize scenery and establish markers to overlay it with augmented reality. It has C++, C, Python, Java and MATLAB interfaces.
